We are used to get new cases and accessories from Asia. So it’s welcome for once to see something really different: The French company Lexigeant announced a special RX100m4 case. You can buy it here: lexigeant.fr/?product_cat=sony-rx100-iv. And there is a video to show you what you get:

The creator of the product Frédéric sent me this text:

I designed a customization kit for the Sony RX100 III & IV. My aim was to give a retro style to the camera, a good looking and comfortable grip and protect the screen. It contains : a precious wood grip, a skin silver effect and real leather, a leather cover
Wood grip : Pulm Tree Wood or Holm oak Wood
Skin : Sticker Brushed metal or silver effect – Black goatskin leather or Brown calfskin leather
Cover : Black goatskin leather or Brown calfskin leather
The grip and the skin are fixed with a 3M sticker
the cover is fixed to the camera body with snap buttons.
16 possible combinations of customization.
Hand made – Made in France

P.S.: Vive le France! :)

Ryan Avery just sent me that nice picture of the Veydra 25mm E-mount lens via Twitter. The Cine lens covers the APS-C sensor area (great for the Super35 mode on the A7rII). The new lenses will ship in October.

As reported previously on Newsshooter the “25mm, 35mm, 50mm and 85mm will all receive a new Sony E-mount option that covers the Super35 sensor size.” This from Ryan Avery of Veydra:

“The Veydra Sony E-mount will be an accessory option available for purchase to Kickstarter backers first, and then all other customers immediately afterward for existing Veydra Mini Prime Micro4/3 mount lenses. The Veydra Sony E Mount will be a single piece user changeable mount. All you need to do is remove the existing Micro4/3 mount and with a few small screws attach the new E-mount. No shims will be required.“

The Veydra lenses with MFT mount are listed on [shoplink 39835 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink] and BHphoto (Click here).

Eric: “I show how to use Yongnuo Flash triggers to make a long range RF remote for Sony a6000 and a7 cameras. I have tested the range to 400 feet and it works great. Would be ideal for wedding and sports photographers who use remote cameras. Possibly wildlife photographers now that we have a silent shutter option. http://youtu.be/m9Ob2CMTUOc”
