(SR5) Three new Alphas to be announced soon (and before Photokina)

Do you really thought Sony would let us wait until Photokina (in September) before to release some new Sony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony AlphaSony Alpha cameras? According to rumors found on asian forums (and from reliable sources) at least three new Alpha cameras are going to be announced during the next few months.
The next camera to be announced should be the Sony A330 successor (the Sony A390).
And Sony will also upgrade the very popular Sony A550! There will be two (yes two!) Sony A5xx cameras with ExmorHD sensor. We don’t know what the difference will be between the two A5xx cameras. We only know that they will have the same Sony NEXSony NEXSony NEX sensor. Expect also some new features to find it’s way inside the cameras.

As usual, please link to sonyalpharumors when you post the rumor on your website/forum. Feel free to send me your rumors at sonyalpharumors@gmail.com.

Thanks!

Sony A950 (old) fake image…correct specs?)

UPDATE: Some of our readers have seen that picture before and it is a known fake!

Take it easy guys. That is a fake. Our sources didn’t tell us anything about a possible Sony A950 :(
Anyway we already know that the Sony A900 has been discontinued (read the news here). According to a user of the chinese forum DCCZBS.ZOL.com.cn (btw…crazy domain name) the Sony A950 will not come with the new ExmorHD sensor (no video recording!) The sensor will be the new Super HAD CCD II (the sensor really exists!). The A950 will have over 30MPX (34?).
