Sony A68 and A-mount in general will no more be sold in Taiwan.

I got this from a source:

“There was a email send by Sony Taiwan to some of their employees. It said that A68 will not be introduced in Taiwan due to decreasing demands of mid-level DSLR from the market.”

So after Australia and New Zealand also Taiwan will likely no more sell any A-mount stuff.

I guess Soy’s startegy now is to sell their new A-mount cameras only in “DSLR-friendly” markets.

New Sony RX100 IV reviews by CameraLabs and John Sison.

Share

We have two new RX100m4 reviews. Above you can see the video review from John Sison. And Gordon from CameraLabs writes:

The RX100 IV becomes one of the smallest traditional compacts with 4k video, and the slow motion modes from 4x to 40x are simply fantastic. Whether you’re a film-maker, someone who analyses sports motion, or simply enjoys footage of your kids or pets running and splashing around, the RX100 IV delivers a combination of quality and features that hasn’t before existed in this form factor. They enhance what was already one of the best compacts around and if you can exploit them, the Mark IV is the compact for you.

One more thing: High Speed Shutter of the Sony RX100IV by Gary Fong.

(SR3) More hints about a new A99 successor…

Share

Two more sources confirmed the next Sony High End Camera is the Sony A99 successor. It is yet not 100% confirmed if it will be announced at CES or at CP+. I have no info and specs about the A99 successor. So it’s not clear if it’s a High Megapixel camera or an A-mount camera without pellicle mirror or whatever. I do hope to get some info about the camera before the announcement comes. Let’s hope Sony will add some exciting features on the camera!

Reminder: Sony will have a press event on January 5th at the CES in Las Vegas. The US market is still very DSLR-centric and it certainly makes sense to announce a new A-mount High End Camera on that event.

Stay tuned on SAR and subscribe the newsletter to get info when it matters:
