We had a busy weekend with plenty of rumors and leaks. Time to sum everything in one single post. And I also want to know your buying intentions :)
The good news of all these leaks is that I posted the NEX-F3 and A37 rumor over three months ago. These means that also my Full Frame rumors are very likely correct as they are coming from the same sources!

One more thing: The roadmap image you see in the first thumbnail below doens’t include the pro stuff! Don’t worry, A99 is coming in August :)

Yangcanggih (Click here) now also leaked the new Sony A37 camera! It looks like they got the images straight from a “secret” Sony presentation!

Click on these thumbnails to enlarge the size of the image:

There has been a massive leak at Yangcanggih (Click here). You Can click on the pictures to enlarge the images! As you can see it really has that 180 degree titlable LCD screen “copied” from he [shoplink 12423 ebay]Samsung MV800 (here on eBay)[/shoplink]. The camera is a bit more “massive” compared to the [shoplink 7207]NEX-C3[/shoplink] due the new grip and probably thicker body.

So, you have seen the pictures. Question is….
