(SR5) One more “high end” Full Frame E-mount camera will be announced very soon! Is it the A7sIII or A9II ?

Nokishita reports that  this camera will have the same Wifi capabilities of the new A7rIV.

Sources confirmed that there will be one more Full Frame camera announcement very soon! They are 100%  sure it’s Full Frame and a new “BIG ONE” camera :)

There are two possible candidates. Place your bet:

I believe the new Highe End FF camera will be the...

I am now unsure if this is the A7sIII (or A7sIV) or the A9II or…crazy speculation: both are the same camera?  Anyway, I got some early unconfirmed specs that I will post soon on SAR. Stay tuned!

Focus on that little new gem lens: The 70-350mm APS-C E-mount!

Share

Preorders:
Sony A6600 at Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama, FocusCamera. In EU at Calumet DE, Park UK, WexUK.
Sony A6100  at Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama, FocusCamera. In EU at Calumet DE, Park UK, WexUK.
E 16-55mm F2.8 G at Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama, FocusCamera. In EU at Calumet DE, Park UK, WexUK.
E 70-350mm F4.5-6.3 G OSS at Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama , FocusCamera. In EU at Calumet DE, Park UK, WexUK.

We were all a bit distracted by the launch of the two new A6600 and A6100 cameras to really focus on the two new APS-C lenses. Personally I believe the launch  of the new 16-55mm and 70-350mm lens is a bigger news :)

Today I will focus on the new 70-350mm APS-C E-mount lens. This is why the lens is so interesting:

1) It’s  the first serious quality wildlife lens for the APS-C shooters
2) In the Full frame E-mount world  you do not  have a 105-525mm zoom option!
3) Usually such kind of lenses from Canon and Nikon comes as 70-300mm lens. Those extra 50mm at the tele end are very welcome for wildlife shooters!
4) The lens isn’t cheap but it’s cheaper than the Sony  FE 70-300mm lens (I  know I am comparingg apple and oranges here)
5)  MFT chart (see below) and image samples posted at Sony.net show the lens delivers an impressive IQ
6) The lens is very lightweight, weather sealed…ideal for outdoor hiking and long time handheld shooting!

I believe if you own an APS-C E-mount camera you should definitely checkout this lens!
