A6700 announcement with new kit lens and new 70-200 G on July 12. New menu, same touchscreen and AI feature as the new zv1mkii
Source 2:
Sensor of ” a6700″ does not have DRAM
And a reader made me notice something I missed:
Just a quick one to point out that the rumored size of the A6700 matches the dimensions of the A7C body. 4mm taller, 3mm deeper (not including grip protrusion). Exactly the same size as the existing A7C body.
Just my wishful thinking: A majestic 24-70mm f/2.0 GM lens :)
I am working on many rumors about the A6700, FX10(real?), A7cII, A9III (sounds exciting!), the “surprise camera” and obviously new lenses. if you don’t want to miss anything be sure to subscribe to those accounts:
A NEW source just sent me this (I am not sure if this is correct info but it sounds legit):
Saw your post about the new 70-200 f4. I have seen a preproduction version of this lens and can tell you that it will be shorter (by about 30%?) than the existing lens. Wider too, and better build quality, but a similar weight and fully internal focusing. The original has a week point in the middle and if dropped it can snap at that point. The new lens is completely redesigned with build quality being a key point that Sony wanted to address.
Finally the Sony Blogger madness is over and we can focus on the soon to be announced new gear ;)
Within the next 2 months there will be for sure a new Sony High End APS-C E-mount camera, a new 70-200mm G macro, and maybe another lens too! In the video above I explain you everything while as next I will share some more UNOCONFIRMED A6700 specs:
TRUSTED sources told us the new High End camera will start shipping out in August. Announcement will obviously happen before that.
THREE NEW (anonymous) sources shared following info on this camera:
6k30p 10bit. 4k120 (1.19 crop). 4k120 will come in FW update along with it
3.69m dot viewfinder
2 SD/CF type A cards
The body will be a new design. It will still have the evf on the left, but it will have a scroll wheel on the front under the shutter button. The grip is redesigned and more ergonomic. The body will be about 3mm deeper and 4mm taller.
Basically it is going to be a stills version of the fx30. Due to the cost of the VF, shutter and a few other things it is looking like the price will be $1999. Should be good value.
Announcement date: beginning of July.
IMPORTANT: TRSUSTED sources are right 90% of the time. While with new sources you have always to keep in mind that the info could be completely or partially WRONG.
Today Sony will announce the new ZV-1II. And I got the first leaked images of the camera that do confirm it uses the new 18-50mm f/1.8-4.0 lens. Ut also has extensive touchscreen functionalities. You can see the 1/4″ mount at the bottom is well away from the battery door…so they fixed that!
One one of the images you see the Cine Vlog mode and also the new audio functions that do work like on the ZV-E1.
