Finally some real concrete info on the new NEX-FF system!

According to two sources the first prime lens to be announced along the new NEX-FF camera will be the Zeiss 35mm f/2.8. A perfect lens for street photography. Some of you may wnated it faster but this would have made the lens way too big! The Sony-Zeiss goal was to make it as compact and as high quality as possible. And I think that’s a great start for the new NEX-FF camera system!

Note that Zeiss once made the Zeiss 35mm f/2.8 C Biogon T* for the M-mount system (you can find the lens here at Amazon US or [shoplink 19913 ebay]eBay[/shoplink]). The new NEX-FF version will be bigger but I hope it will look very close to the ZM lens:

I have no info about the price of the lens. But let me know….

As soon as I get a picture of this lens I will amke the rumor SR5 :)

The amazing Sigma APS-C 18-35mm f/1.8 A-mount lens will ship any day now at Amazon (Click here), BHphoto (Click here) and Adorama (Click here).

And according to new unconfirmed rumors Sigma could launch a 24-70mm f/2.0 (yes constant!) OS HSM Full Frame lens at Photokina in September 2014. And it could be less expensive than the Sony 24-70mm f/2.8 Carl Zeiss Lens ($1998 here at Amazon). Let’s hope this rumor will be correct!

A trusted source just told me that Sony is likely going to announce the new NEX-FF camera on September 24. I am still waiting to get some feedback from other sources to upgrade the rumor to SR5 level. The source told me that Sony worked very secretly for two years on that project. And there was and is a very tight collaboration between Sony-Zeiss and Olympus on that! The NEX-FF (final name still unknown) is a tiny bit bigger than the NEX-7, it will be the most compact digital interchangeable mount Full Frame camera of the world!

Stil to be confirmed: The camera will fetaure on sensor stabilization (5 axis IS from Olympus). Price will be in the same range of the RX1 and RX1R series (body only!). And there will be two Zeiss FF lenses too! Current E-mount lenses will work in crop mode on the camera.

Big day Tomorrow?: Within the next few hours I will receive the specs of one of the new Zeiss lenses. If all works fine tomorrow I can share you the real details about the lens! As promised, this is going to be one of the most exciting rumor times ever…not only for the Sony fellowship!!! Stay tuned on SAR and spread the news on the web!

The Taiwan’s NCC Agency registered the “Sony NEX-5T” camera. This confirms that the rumor we posted a couple of weeks ago is correct! This makes it even more likely that also the DSRL shaped NEX and NEX-FF rumors are correct…exciting time for the NEX fellowship!

UPDATE: I got a correction from the source. Sony has scheduled a camera(s) announcement day for September and not in August.. Plenty of new cameras and lenses are coming!

Bye the way, if you are interested in the new NEX-FF camera you should stay tuned on SAR this week. If all works fine I will get the first specs of the Zeiss FF prime lens!

The screenshot has been grabbed from that Youtube video from Cnet. They don’t believe on the rumor posted by SonyAlphaRumors and made a bit of fun on us :)

Now, dear Cnet…you wanna bet with me that the rumor is correct? If I am wrong I send you a couple of superb french bottle of wine. If I am right you could offer a couple of beers when I will visit you in NYC. Deal?

Now something more interesting for our readers: The same sources that told us about the “Lens-Camera” also shared info on the NEX-FF and the Honami Smartphone-camera. And at least the last one has been officially confirmed via FCC registration (Source: GSMarena). Be ready for a round of beer Cnet guys! And to SAR readers, be ready to read some new NEX-FF rumor soon! ;)

I got info about a new E-Mount zoom lens. Sony could launch the new 55-150mm f/2.8 G zoom lens in September. it will be announced along the new NEX ASP-C cameras and the 16-xx mm zoom lens. This would be the first high quality and fast mid range zoom for the NEX system. I do not have info about the price but the lens will ship in October-November.
