Over 4.000 unique voters decided which features are the most important for the future Sony Fullframe cameras. You can see the voting results here: http://www.sonyalpharumors.com/poll-vote-your-future-sony-ff-must-have-features/. First I want to thank you all for participating the voting. I will send the results to Sony and see what they think about it. And now, what did we learn from your voting?

1) Real photography: People wants Sony to stop the Megapixel race and focus on higher dynamic range, low noise, manual controls, and top quality 16bit RAW. I couldn’t agree more with the SAR readers! Well done! Let’s go back to real photographer needs!
2) What are the surprises? Many are waiting for a new Mirrorless Fullframe camera (34% of all voters). And 30% of you want that camera to have in body IS!
3) There is still a big need for optical viewfinders! 26% of you want the “old” DSLR design back in Sony’s roadmap. The question is, will EVF become as good as OVF? If Sony can manage to archive that goal than I am sure that big amount of OVF voters will become less and less in time.

One of our readers made an extremely accurate analysis of the results. He created the graphs you can when clicking on these links:
part one, part two, part three, part four, part five, part six, part seven, part eight.

There are a couple of things to consider here:
1) The poll will have no influence on the products released next year as the development of those products has almost terminated.
2) I want to quote Henry Ford’s famous phrase: “If I’d asked customers what they wanted, they would have said “a faster horse“. Good companies should go beyond the current “believes” of the mass. So Sony, feel free to surprise use! ;)

And now let me know what are your “evaluation” of the poll!!!

Good Morning dear readers.
After 11 hours drive I am now back at home. I finished my photography project in Belgium and have now more time to spend on SonyAlphaRumors. It is very difficult to work on SAR while travelling. My next work-trip is New York City by end of October (we can arrange some meeting there what you think?).

There are a couple of things to say:
1) I will try to check all the emails I missed. If I forgot to post something please drop me an email. Thanks!
2) I will evaluate the fullframe poll. I already know that Sony toke notice of it. I will hopefully be able to post the final results analysis today
3) I will know order all the fullframe rumors I got form my sources. As I said, expect rumors about multiple FF cameras ;)

For the rest, thanks again to everybody that helps me by sending links. If one day you will visit the dolomite’s feel free to contact e and I will offer you a glass of good wine ;)

Bye!
Andrea

Vienna’s vineyards shot on Sony HX9V from Johnnie Behiri on Vimeo.

The video on top has been made by Johnni Behiri and BBC correspondent Bethany Bell: “we’ve decided to give the little Sony camera a try during a real short feature production.
The aim was not to astonish anyone with “VDSLR like” film look but to see how easy (or not) it is to work with it in the field.
Considering the fact that this camera is mostly automatic I am fairly happy with the end result. True, keeping the right exposure is almost impossible during a “run&gun” (look at the piece to camera) but I must admit that focusing (or playing with depth of field) were easier then I’ve expected.”
The HX9v is a compact camera you can get at [shopcountry 7597].

Crazy combination: Sony NEX-5 and his Carl Zeiss 300mm f/2.8 Tele-Superachromat T* lens at Kaisernchen. Actually that lens isn’t as expensive as you think. You can get it for cheap (used) on [shoplink 9231 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].

Our reader “fernando” sent us the following new copy of a new full accessories list for the NEX version cameras. There is a new NEX bag carrier for the cameras on the image and here are the full pictures:
