A year ago Sony launched the NEX-7 and I remember quite many readers here said why the heck Sony is using a 24 Mega-pixel APS-C sensor? Many here wished to see a version with lower resolution sensor (and cleaner High ISO). And indeed Sony heard your call and the new NEX-6 with integrated viewfinder will use a 16 Mega-pixel APS-C sensor. And from what I heard the sensor is not the same 16 MP sensor of the [shoplink 7207]Sony NEX-C3[/shoplink], [shoplink 8452]Sony NEX-5n[/shoplink] and so on…it’s a completely new one! The camera has WiFi and is priced between the NEX-5 and NEX 7 series. Easy math: the NEX-7 is $1199 (at Amazon) and the NEX-5n is $699. So around $950 for the NEX-6 I guess :)
I have been told there is more innovation than we think within the NEX-6. I am working on these rumors too. Stay tuned!
