(SR5) The final NEX firmware available in July

According to our sources Sony will release an important NEX firmware update in July. The firmware will add some kind of new 3D feature to your NEX camera! I really don’t know yet what that means :(
Anyway I was told that this is a very revolutionary feature. You havn’t seen that on any other camera yet!

If you know something feel free to contact me at sonyalpharumors@gmail.com

In the meanwhile feel free to speculate how exactly that 3d function will work ;)

UPDATED (false alarm): DigitalPhoto has new NEX pictures. (or mockups pictures only?)UPDATE

UPDATE: That’s the rumored leak….as suspected only images of the Sony mockups :)

Thanks GH1user and Fotoingo!

The old rumor:

Photorumors just received this tip from a reader:

“More pictures from the Sony NEX are in the new German magazine DigitalPHOTO 606/2010 on pages 43 and 114. On page 114 are 3 different lenses (1 big telezoom?) and 3 bodies (blue, red and silver) to see.”

Some german reader can find this pictures for us?

Anyway I believe those are the mockups pictures :(

Thanks!

(SR4) NEX cameras will come in four colors

I just received a minor but reliable rumor. According to our trusted sources the NEX5 and NEX3 cameras will come in four colors:

Black,Silver,Red,Blue

Unlike the cameras the lenses are supposed to be sold in the silver-chrome version only. Imagine, blue body and silver lens…doesn’t seem to match!

(SR5) More NEX leaks…

A Sonyalpharumors reader just sent us following pictures. I don’t know where he found them but they tell us more about the NEX features.
