New Sony ZV1II specs and a rumor correction: Features 18-50mm and not 18-70mm lens

Share

Small correction on my previous ZV1II spec list. The new ZV1II will have a new 18-50mm and not 18-70mm lens as previously reported. I misinterpreted a message I got from my trusted source. So this mistake is on me!

But I also got some additional info about the camera that will be announced tomorrow:

  • The camera is the ZV1II (ZV1 successor)
  • Same 20MP sensor of the ZV1
  • It will feature a newly designed 18-50mm f/1.8-4.0 lens (compared to the ZV1 24-70mm f/1.8-2.8 lens)
  • cinematic vlog
  • animal eye AF
  • looks nearly the same as the current ZV1
  • It will be expensive with a price close to 1000 Dollars/Euro

Japanese Grand Prix award: The Sony A7rV Camera of the Year

Share

The 2023 camera of the year award did go to the Sony A7rV for the following reason:

The latest generation of the “R” series, which enables high-definition shooting even among Sony’s α7 series, adopts a class-leading effective 61 million-pixel CMOS sensor. It has received praise for significantly improving basic performance, such as autofocus performance and color reproduction, through the newly introduced “AI processing unit” and enhancing the image stabilization mechanism, making it easier to demonstrate the potential of a high-resolution camera in a wide range of shooting scenes. Additionally, comments have been received that the adoption of a 4-axis multi-angle LCD monitor that supports both tilt and vari-angle on the back of the camera has presented a new standard that meets the requirements of both still images and videos.

Sony A7rV store links:
In US at BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama, FocusCamera, BeachCamera, Buydig.
In EU at Fotokoch, Amazon EU, FotoErhardt, Calumet DE, WexUK. ParkCameras UK.
In Australia at CameraPro, Camerahouse, Sony.

The Peak Design Micro Clutch already collected over half a million Dollars

Share

The new Peak Design Micro Clutch collected over half a million Dollars on Kickstarter (click here). This is what they write:

Micro Clutch is a hand strap. It’s optimized for mirrorless cameras. We made Micro Clutch for two reasons: 

  • Cameras have, for the most part, gotten smaller. 
  • Hands have, for the most part, remained the same stupid size.

These facts cannot exist peacefully with one another without some sort of tool to bridge their contradictory nature. This is where we come in.

Micro Clutch provides security, stability, and comfort in a delightfully well-designed little package.
