Share

According to a source from Zeissrumors.com…

“There will not be a digital rangefinder from Zeiss. However, a Sony EVIL（Electronic Viewfinder Interchangeable Lens）with Zeiss licensed lenses will surface around the Q2 of 2010. Your source was wrong!”

SonyAlphaRumors has more details which we will post tomorrow (We have to wait for a last confirm).

Sir Howard Stringer (CEO of Sony) in Businessweek (via alphamountworld)

Share

Businessweek made an interesting interview with Howard Stringer (CEO of Sony). Click here to read the whole interview “Why Sony Is About to Snap Back”

Here you have a small part of the interview:

CHARLIE ROSE (Businessweek)
“What will you say at CES about Sony’s product lineup?”

SIR HOWARD STRINGER
“This year we’re going to swamp the marketplace with innovation and new products, and we’re going to particularly focus on 3D because we have so many assets compared with anybody else—from cameras to projectors to 3D video games to TVs to Blu-ray—everything can be 3D with us. Size finally matters again, so that is an advantage we intend to demonstrate at CES.”

Sony A450 does the Monte Carlo rally

Share


The french magazine focus-numerique.com (click here to read the google translation) tested the Sony Alpha 450 in an unusual way. They went to the Monte Carlo Rally. The article talks more about cars and less about the Sony A450 but it is definitely worthy to read it :)

What they liked most is the reliable autofocus in such difficoult light conditions.
