(SR3) Some more “extended” A6100 specs. And a full rumor recap.

Yesterday two anonymous sources sent me two different A6100 specs. I got two updates to report: The first source who said the A6100 has no 4K is plain wrong. And a third new source shared some more specs tonight. But also in that case I am really sceptic about the specs validity:

32mp BSI
5-axis IBIS
Much better ISO
4K
285 PDAF points
New EVF (larger T* viewfinder 0.75x)
14.5fps
Smaller than A6000, less weight too
No weather sealing
Mic-input
Only comes in black

Still, this info is coming from a new source so take it with a grain of salt. All I know from trusted sources is that a new A6xxx is definitely coming in September or early October at max.

Full September 11 announcement rumor recap:

SR5 (two trusted source confirmed this): New Sony PXW-FS5 E-mount camcorder. S35 sensors. 4K internally, but 8 bit XAVC-L (note the L) 100 Mbit max. No HFR as far as I can tell, 30fps max in 4K. Looks like a baby FS7. Price will be between old FS700 and current FS7, likely $5,000-6,500 USD. Differentiation on FS7 is much better CODEC, higher frame rates (incl 60p 4K), option for RAW and ProRes, bigger build.
SR4 (one trusted source heard this): Sony will announce 7 new lenses (some in development and some for real). Among them we have new FE telephoto lens(es), fast portrait prime, 24-70mm GM and maybe some “Updated” A-mount lenses.
SR4 (two trusted source heard about this): A60000 successor to be announced between now and PhotoPlus. Note: The rumor is not SR5 because it happened once that Sony delayed the announcement of that camera. Don’t want to bring bad luck again :)
SR3 (one anonymous source): New A6000 successor to be announced on September 11.

Tomorrow (September 11) Sony will have a press announcement at 9am Berlin time. You can follow the live videostream here on SAR!

(SR4) Sony will announce seven(!) new lenses on Friday?

The following rumor comes via a trusted source! He told me Sony will announce seven new lenses. He didn’t share any details if among them there will be the rumored “Updated” A-mount lenses. But there will be definitely new E-mount lenses unveiled. Some of the will be available by end of the year and some of them in 2016 only.

So far we heard one FE telephoto lens, one FE  portrait lens, one 24-70mm FE GM are coming. And also two updated 85mm and 135mm A-mount lenses could be announced tomorrow.

(SR4) Sony will showcase a new FE tele zoom soon.

A source told me that among the new FE lenses that Sony will show in autumn there will be certainly a new FE tele zoom lens and the long time rumored fast portrait lens. He added that most of the other new FE lenses will ship in 2016 only :(

(SR3) New (updated) A6100 info. Announcement on Friday (Sept 11).

A6000gariz

UDPATED POST: I got two anonymous sources sending me two different A6100 info. So either both or one of them is wrong, or we have two different cameras coming:

Source_1:

Sony A6000 successor will be announced on September 11. A6100 will support [shoplink 40116 ebay]UHS-II SD cards[/shoplink] with a maximum write speed of 173 MB/s. It will have a new 24 megapixel sensor with 15% better ISO performance. There won’t be 4K video recording capability. There won’t be a silver version anymore, only black.

Source_2:

just saw your latest post and want to say that a6100 or a6000II will have 4K 100mbps but no full readout like a7rII s35 mode. 32mp but not 24mp  BSI sensor, and yes with 15% better noise performance. price is unknown yet. It will also have a larger T* viewfinder 0.75x

I still have no 100% confirmation from trusted sources that the camera will be announced on Sept. 11. All I know from them is that indeed the A6xxx is coming within the September/October timeframe. No info yet on the A7sII announcement timeframe…

But there are some HIGHLY exciting products still to come…more on that on next rumors…

(SR4) First possible Sony E-mount camcorder specs. And Sony will shock everybody soon with their new creation.

Bildschirmfoto 2015-09-04 um 10.30.48

I just got info about the new E-mount camcorder form a source (Thanks a lot!). He said:

New Sony F cam Friday is S35, not FF. 4K internally, but 8 bit XAVC-L (note the L) 100 Mbit max. No HFR as far as I can tell, 30fps max in 4K. Looks like a baby FS7. Price will be between old FS700 and current FS7, likely $5,000-6,500 USD. Differentiation on FS7 is much better CODEC, higher frame rates (incl 60p 4K), option for RAW and ProRes, bigger build.

A second highly trusted source sent me this:

Sony will shock everybody soon with their new creation.

Don’t know if he refers to the one camcorder I shared the specs about or about a second product (FF camcorder, A7sII or whatever).

The camcorder will be announced on September 11 at 9am CET (Berlin time). You can follow the event live on the following Sony Uk page. I will also embed the live streaming on SAR.

On Friday (9am Berlin time) Sony will announce their new (FF?) E-mount camcorder. But there will be another announcement from Zeiss too: Diglloyd confirmed that Zeiss will have a product announcement by end of this week. And we can really hope this is where we will also see the announcement of the new wide angle Loxia FE lens! Knowing Zeiss the lens will have one of the specs “Borrowed” from the ZM series:
