Unlucky accident: Images of broken Sony A1 camera

Hisham Awadh posted this report on our Sony A1 Facebook group:

😢 I was too excited i forgot to lock the lens foot on a tripod and it fell down and broke in two pieces !!!! I guess i don’t need the firmware update anymore because i can’t afford another one ! Am on my way home now . What is the next step from here ? Thanks in advance for your support .

New images of that unique Viltrox 16mm f/1.8 FE lens with built-in LCD screen

On Weibo I spotted new images of the Viltrox 16mm f/1.8 FE lens with built-in LCD screen. There is also a Chinese written report about this lens that I Google translated here:

VILTROX’s upcoming AF 16mm F1.8 Sony E-mount full-frame ultra-wide-angle lens package has a small LCD screen that can display parameters such as focusing distance. This lens has a non-bulb head and can be used with a 77mm circular filter, which can meet the needs of shooting various subjects such as starry sky, scenery, and vlog. It is expected to be officially released in May

In addition, Viltrox will release several new lenses, including full-frame AF 28mm F1.8 E-mount, and two APS-C lenses: 75mm F1.2 E-mount and 27mm F1.2 X-mount.
