(SR4) Sony A6xxx will ship in March!

Share

Pardon my language: But the Sony A6xxx is my pain in the ass rumor of 2015 :)  The camera announcement got delayed twice:
First delay in Spring (Fact proven by the famous Wikileaks roadmap where the A6xxx was listed for a Sprin announcement – article here).
Second delay in Autumn (the same source who gave me the correct Sonys EU online store closure info told me afterwards the A6xxx release got delayed again).

But finally a couple of major store owners told me that Sony officially reported them the new A6xxx camera will ship in March! This means their A6000 Stock will get cleared. So in summary this is what to expect to be announced between January (CES) and February (CP+):

SR5: A99 successor (no specs known yet)
SR5: A6000 successor (no specs known yet)
SR5: New FE lens roadmap (probably at CP+)
SR4: New 24-70mm f/2.8 lens
SR4: New fast prime lens (probably 85mm f/1.4)

To all SAR readers: Wish you all the best for the new year!

Elmar: “I am a photographer and im using Sony cameras A7rII /7MII i love underwater photography as well as landscape, events, wedding people, sports, and more.
I thought maybe my work is interesting to see the result of the combo underwater, for me it is the best combination for underwater macro photography.
I m using the new underwater housing from Nauticam for the A7rII+Macro G OSS FE90mmF2,8, 2x Inon strobes,2x lights from Sola light & motion ports and on some of the pictures the SMC(super macro converter) from Nauticam.
I went on a trip to Bali in November on the link below you can enjoy some of the pictures.

(SR3) Rumors about a new FE lens manufacturer…

Share

sony

An anonymous source told me this:

Speaking to the guys in XXX (Editor’s note: removed name and location) yesterday, one of them said a new manufacturer is releasing lenses for FE mount next year, and its “not who’d you think”, i checked and he didnt mean voigtlander, but would tell me no more other than “price point a bit below Zeiss level”.

Not sure what company this could be. Let’s hope “below Zeiss level” also means that these lenses will be high quality just like Zeiss lenses.
