Sony Artisan Patrick Murphy-Racey posted the first full Sony A6500 review:

As a user of every Pro camera Canon has made since the original EOS1 back in 1992, and more recently as a Nikon shooter with the D4S, I have become accustomed to how these top of the line pro cameras feel and act in my hands shooting news, sports, and photojournalism assignments.They have always been the best, offering super-fast AF, quick motor drives, and low light auto focus that I have grown to count on.
The A6500 feels much like those high end cameras of today that cost $6,000 each.

Patrick was the first and only(!) photographer who had the pleasure to test the new camera. And it’s also worth to be mentioned his future Sony product wishlist:

1. A full-frame A7 series camera with the chops of the A6500. Speed, high frame rate, 4D focus.
2. A vertical grip for the A6500 and future FF camera with more than one back button for AF.
3. An AF management custom function similar to Canon’s “Case” system.
4. In order, FE300mm f/4G SSM, FE135mm f/1.8GM SSM, FE300mm f/2.8G SSM, FE400mm f/2.8G SSM, FE200-500mm f/5.6G SSM, FE600mm f/4G SSM, FE200mm f/2G SSM, FE200-400mm f/4G SSM, FE500mm f/4G SSM
5. A “real” 4-AA TTL flash made by Sony with built-in radio trigger system.
6. 1/250th sync for flash AC powered units
7. XQD cards Please (this will only allow a faster through-put).
8. An even shorter shutter lag time, 240 fps 4K EVF. 20 fps motor drive.
9. A larger body with a new battery and bigger buttons.
10. The ability to store all custom functions on SD cards and e-mail them to share with others.

Imaging Resource posted the Lab shots taken with the new Sony RX100mV. At first glance the RX100mV seems to be visibly sharper and less noisier than the previous RX100mIV. What do you think?

And Dpreview posted a few image smaples too.

Thanks Baard for finding this!

SAR reader P. sent me this:

This email is a bit weird haha, but I think I might have worked out what the next zeiss lenses might be for e-mount. If you look at this site, http://www.zeiss.de/corporate/de_de/zeiss-corporate-newsroom/news/pressemitteilungen.html?id=photokina-2016-new-industrial-lenses you can see four “interlock lenses”. ZEISS Interlock Compact: Planar T* 2/50, Sonnar T* 2.4/85, Distagon T* 2.8/21, Biogon T* 2/35. These are the aperture and focal lengths of the zeiss loxia lenses and they look like them too; the weights aren’t the same however. Then recently they announced a 15mm f/2.8, a 18mm f/2.8, and a 135mm f/2.
 “New members have also been added to the ZEISS Interlock family of industrial lenses: ZEISS is expanding the series with three fixed focal lengths: 2.8/15, 2.8/18 and 2/135”. There’s already a zeiss batis 18mm f/2.8 lens, so my theory is that the 15mm f/2.8 is too close to the zeiss batis 18mm f/2.8, so that will be a Zeiss Loxia. Then the 135mm f/2 will be a Zeiss Batis (this makes more sense since the filter size will fit).
 This makes quite a lot of sense, because you can have a 15mm, a 21mm, 35mm and an 85mm in the zeiss loxia line, then in the zeiss batis line you can have 18mm, 25mm, 85mm and 135mm. None of the focal lengths step on each other and they’d be evenly spread out.

Photochirp is just speculating…but we know a Batis lens is coming and that it’s likely to be a tele lens. The specs could be close to the 135mm f/2.0 Interlock lens (PDF sheet here).

The Sony A6500 has almost the exact same dimensions as the A6300. One notable difference is the larger grip of the new camera (4,5mm deeper). And here is the difference shown by Photosku:

Preorders (Start on October 10 at 11am NYC time):
A6500 at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama.
RX100m5 at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama.

ePhotozine tested the new Sony 50mm f/2.8 macro lens and writes:

“There is no doubt that handling is excellent. Focus locks on reliably, the image in the viewfinder or on the monitor is clear and it is a pleasure to enjoy again the simplicity of just having that one standard lens to shoot with.
Sharpness at the centre is simply excellent at all apertures.
Despite only having 7 diaphragm blades, the bokeh is still very pleasing.
The 50mm lens is a universally useful optic and the ability to continue to focus right down to life size is very appealing indeed. The Sony FE 50mm f/2.8 macro lens is an excellent performer and a pleasure to use, at a realistic price.”

The new Sony FE 50mm macro lens is in Stock and shipping for the first time:
in USA at BHphoto, Adorama and Amazon.
in Europ at Fotomundus, Amazon.de, Amazon UK.
