Sony has been shaking up the digital imaging market since it came on board in 2006 with the A100. It released a pair of hits last year with its A7 series and totally shook up the mirrorless camera market again. [Read more…]

Sony ILCE-5000 (A5000?) Leaks Out
A Sony ILCE-5000 camera has been registered on the Taiwan National Communication Commission website, which likely points to the upcoming release of the camera. CES 2014 would be a good time frame to see it show up.
The Sony A3000, A7 and A7R all carry the “ILCE” moniker in their technical product number. While we all refer to the cameras with an “A” prefix, they are technically the Alpha 3000, Alpha 7 and Alpha 7R – or more precisely (using the symbol) ?3000, ?7, and ?7R. It would be logical then that the ILCE-5000 follows the new “Alpha” branding (“NEX” is dead) and carries the product name ?5000 when it officially arrives. [Read more…]

Sony NEX-7R Coming Soon; Leaks Already Free-Flowing
Another interesting leak situation happened with Sony’s rumored NEX-7R, which is expected to serve as the replacement for the highly-regarded Sony NEX-7.
As noted by Sony Alpha Rumors:
New York fashion Photographer Clayton Nelson shared a couple of pictures he has taken “with the Sony NEX-7R, a new prototype APS sensor digital camera” (these are his own words).
The shared images have sinced been removed from Nelson’s Facebook account; however, there seems to be a lot coming together that makes this sound very legit.
Previous rumors suggested that the NEX-7 replacement would be unveiled in October 2013 (likely prior to PhotoPlus 2013 that occurs at the end of October). This would be a big camera for this rather large show and would give Sony a nice chunk of press for the prosumer crowd leading into the holiday season.
Additionally, the Sony NEX-7 successor (previously referred to as the NEX-7N) has been rumored to stick with a 24MP APS-C sensor instead of pushing its luck with a higher-MP offering.
Sony NEX-7R Rumored Specs
- New 24 MP APS-C sensor with 1/2 stop improvement and increased dynamic range
- 3.8 million dot EVF
- Touchscreen
- Hybrid Contrast and Phase Detection AF
- Tri Navi design reviewed
- Improved focus peaking with choice of colors
- Wi-Fi
- No built-in GPS
- Same size and form factor of the current NEX-7 but with a minor design changes
Sony A-Mount Cameras Will Live On
After the recent introduction of the Sony A3000 (an E-mount camera), I have been wondering whether or not Sony would move exclusively to the E-mount and leave the legacy A-mount system in the past. If statements attributed to Sony UK’s head of digital imaging, Frederik Lange, are accurate, then Sony plans to keep on making A-mount cameras. [Read more…]
