Another rendring of a high end A9 DSLR alike camera (SonyAlphaForum).
A few days ago I told that trusted sources told me that Sony is about to announce a new High End camera. But other than that I have no reliable info about the possible specs of it. In those last couple of days I got some info from anonymous sources which I think are at 99% wrong. But I figured that you might want to read what I got in my mail box. Maybe a miracle will happen and one of those will get true one day :)

I wanted to tell you that I saw a new mounting system on a lens. It was not A or E mount nor Nikon or Canon but advertised as for Sony. Judging from the specs of the lens it is for Full Frame 35mm, but a pinch smaller.
The engineers told me they can not disclose what for it is…

I believe there will be a CML (compact mirror less) “A9” or “A7-Pro” with BSI 56-58 Mp (effective) in appr.late November. Also a mirror less A 99 II with same BSI sensor 56-58 Mp. OLED-EVF! In spring 2016 an A 88 II, equiv to Pentax K 1 FF, will appear. Same BSI sensor but scaled down to 42 or 36 Mp. Sony now uses only two FF sensors – one BSI appr 60 Mp, one FSI appr 50 Mp. All FF cameras are scaled from those.

The new secret weapon camera to be unleashed is a medium format Rx style camera with changeable lenses and evf.
It comes with the Sony 50 Mp backlit sensor and instead of zooms it will have a 50mm, 80mm and 150mm primes. It is aimed at landscape artists. A new 55mm lens is also being made which will have tilt/shift to facilitate architectural photography which requires a high format and tabletop photos for ads.

It only rarely happens that anonymous sources are spot on with rumors. Last time this happened was in January when a source shared the Zeiss Batis lens specs. id dint’ belive him…but at the end he was 100% spot on!
