Removal of the A99 leaked images…

Share

I have been requested to remove the images from the youtube video that leaked the first A99 image. And I also had to remove the Twitter image. Of course this images are still  available on other websites. Anyway, this actually proves that this was indeed the A99 :)

First more detailed Mitakon 35mm f/0.95 for NEX lens test!

Share

A couple of weeks ago I told you that Mitakon is ready to release the new 35mm f/0.95 lens. And you can already see a full test done on the E-mount version (on the NEX-7) at Xitek Forum (Translation here). The price of the lens should be around 600 Euro.

P.S. You can find plenty of Mitakon lenses on [shoplink 12829 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. And they outsource to SLRmagic too. Example:
[shoplink 11187 ebay]SLR Magic 35mm f/1.7 MC (here on eBay)[/shoplink].
[shoplink 11186 ebay]SLR Magic Toy Lens 28mm Bokehmorphic lens (here on eBay)[/shoplink].
[shoplink 11185 ebay]SLR Magic HyperPrime 50mm f/0.95 (here on eBay)[/shoplink].
[shoplink 11186 ebay]SLR Magic 28mm f/2.8 lens (here on eBay)[/shoplink].

Super $370 discount on the NEX-7!

Share

[shoplink 13670 ebay][/shoplink]

In one year I never saw any price drop on the NEX-7. And now there is that huge $370 price drop via BigValue on [shoplink 13670 ebay]eBay US (Click here)[/shoplink]. The normal price would be $1199 (here at Amazon). It’s available in limited quantity only. There is no such huge deal in Europe. the cheapest price I found is at [shoplink 13673 ebay]Pixmania eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].

USA: Zeiss for NEX back in Stock.

[shoplink 13655 ebay]

[/shoplink]
Almost exactly one year ago Sony launched the high quality [shoplink 8450]Zeiss 24mm f/1.8[/shoplink] E-mount lens. And at least in US that lens is still hard to find in Stock (and for the normal price!). You can now get a couple of them with Filter and Cleaner kit via [shoplink 13655 ebay]Beachcamera eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. There is no way to get it for less. Right now the price is $1249 at Amazon (Click here).

Also today the NEX-5R didn’t manage to get significant preorders at Amazon (here is the ranking). My guess is that most of us are waiting for the new NEX-6 which features a 2,4k integrated viewfinder and for the rest the exactly same specs as the new NEX-5R.
