And here are some new A99, RX1 and NEX-6 tests:
The Imaging Resource comparometer now contains the A99 studio shots!
Lenstip posted many new tests shots: A99 image samples, NEX-6 and 10-18mm samples, NEX-5R and Zeiss samples, NEX-6 with 35mm samples.
ThePhoBlographer posted a first impression RX1 review: “For what it’s worth, the Sony Rx-1 is justified at its price. My only problems so far with the camera are that I believe it should have a built-in EVF, the autofocus is a bit sluggish, and I want a depth of field scale around the lens.”

A99 Sample Video; Making-Sony Korea from sonystyleblog on Vimeo.

Sony Korea already made superb A77 videos last year and they now did it again with the new A99. That is the way to give us some “A99-emotions“! Great work guys! The first video can be seen here on top. The second video is here. UPDATE: As noticed by other readers it seems to be some sort of problems with the video compression or (that would be worse) with bandin (see minute 1:57 from the video below).

I hope this video will help to push the Sony A99 preorders because right now the rankings are looking bad for the A99. Try to check out the Amazon DSLR ranking (Click here and scroll down forever). One more thing, don’t forget that there is a 2% back in reward at Amazon (Click here to read). You basically get $56 back on the purchase of the A99 (and 2% on any other camera or lens you buy).
