Short message to source: Thanks for the info….and short question.

Sorry readers: That’s a message for a source who just shared another info anonymously. And this is the only way he can read me. Message for him:

Thanks for the QX30 and the last new rumor. Short question. Can you “investigate” about” the next camera launch coming in 3-4 months. I have been told it’s very BIG.  And if you wnat you can contact me directly with a fake gmail account at sonyalpharumors@gmail.com. Thanks!!!!

Double press event from Sony: Friday Sept 12 (4K cam), Monday 15 Sept (A and E-mount lenses).

Press 1: On Friday Sony will announce the new 4K camcorder leaked last week. They may show the 2500 Euro expensive 28-135mm f/4.0 powerzoom too.

Press 2: The next press conference follows on Monday Sept 15 at 16:00 Berlin time. That’s when we will get the other new A and E-mount lenses like the 35 1.4(G/ZA) and 70-300G II A-mount and the 16-35mm FE and 90mm macro FE lens. Also an updated FE lens roadmap with 85mm lens included for 2015 release. Where I am still not 100% sure yet is the camera list. Best candidates are the A99II and new RX camera. But the bigger news is coming after Photokina and about that I will write and publish a post soon!

(SR3) Is there a 90mm FE macro lens coming too?

An anonymous source told me Sony will announce a 90mm macro FE lens at Photokina. Asking now my sources if they can confirm this or not. Thanks!

P.S.: According to Sony’s roadmap that kind of lens is really coming. Hope the fast (85mm 1.4?) prime is going to be announced too!

Stay tuned on SAR: Working on major Sony camera rumors…

You may have noticed that I posted many lens and QX rumors and little about cameras. But I actually did (and  I am still doing) a lot of “behind the scene” camera rumor work! The reason why I have been quiet the last weeks is because I got major news with some surprises and I wanted to spill out the rumors only when I was sure about the rumors I got. I am now very close to get some final answers and I ask you just a bit of patience.

All I can tell for now is that Photokina is not the place for these “BIG” Sony surprises. But I have damn good news: You will not have to wait a long time after Photokina either…

Message to all sources: Thanks for all the rumors you sent me the last weeks about Sony cameras, prototypes and long-term strategy. I will post your rumors as soon as I have double checked them with my trusted sources :)

UPDATE: The lens can be preorderd at BHphoto in the Nikon mount (Click here) and Canon mount (Click here) version.

This is going to be a hot lens for all E-mount camera owners. Hot and $4,490 expensive I should add :) And we learned that Zeiss will announce it within a few hours at 14:00 (2pm) London time. That’s:
6am in San Francisco
9am in NYC
15:00 in Berlin
22:00 in Tokyo

First preorders will be online at exactly that time!

(SR5) UPDATED: Zeiss Otus 85mm f/1.4 to be announced tomorrow (Sept 8). Price is $4,490.00!

UPDATE: The lens can be preorderd at BHphoto in the Nikon mount (Click here) and Canon mount (Click here) version.

One of our very good Zeiss sources (Many thanks man!) just told us that the new Zeiss Otus 85mm f/1.4 will be announced tomorrow (September 8). And it will cost 500 Euro more than the current [shoplink 28693 ebay]Zeiss Otus 55mm lens (around 3445 Euro here on eBay)[/shoplink]. UPDATE: I have been told US price is $4,490.00!

The price is justified by the fact that the new 85mm Otus is really “much better” than the current 55mm Otus!

Current E-mount camera owners with plenty of $$$ on their bank account could be tempted to buy that. Otherwise wait for cheaper and still amazing good 85mm FE lens that is likely to come next year :)
