BestBuy is selling a limited Stock of Zeiss 55mm FE lenses for $719 only on their eBay Store (Click here). It’s Open Box in perfect new condition and with full 1 year Sony US warranty. They have plenty of E-mount Open Box deals with up to $400 savings (Click here to see them all).
After the A7rII Omeneo also made primers for the Sony A7s. The benefits of using those primers:
1) Increased color precision
2) More natural image aesthetics
3) More practical shooting, ability to choose optimized profiles for the scene
4) More informative on-set monitoring, ability to perceive the outcome after primary color correction
5) Reduced unpleasant surprises in post production
6) Speeding up post-production
7) Reduced deterioration of footage with lower color sampling
The russian site Gavriloart published the first images of a Zenit 50mm f/0.95 prototype lens. There is no info about the release date and price of the lens. I hope it can exceed the optical quality of the direct competitor the [shoplink 46954 ebay]Mitakon Speedmaster (here on eBay)[/shoplink].

[shoplink 46453 ebay]A7rII[/shoplink] vs [shoplink 46766 ebay]Canon 5DIII[/shoplink] size comparison (CameraSize).
Last week I reported that a highly trusted source confirmed Sony will launch a higher than A7 model (let’s call it “A9” for now). It will have [shoplink 46602 ebay]dual XQD card slot[/shoplink] and unlimited RAW burst. The same source also added a small info about the camera size:
“The size will be bigger than [shoplink 46453 ebay]A7RII[/shoplink], but smaller than conventional DSLR, such as [shoplink 46766 ebay]5D3[/shoplink].”
The source did not tell us when the camera will be announced. As you know on Sunday at 2pm Las Vegas time Sony has a major product announcement event. But it’s absolutely unclear if the Sony A9 will be announced on Sunday or much later at Photokina. I know the NAB show is for broadcasters. But Sony introduced the A7s at the NAB show two years ago. And the A9 certainly would have a lot of advanced new video features. So it’s not illogical that Sony could use this event for a new A9 launch. But that said…this is all pure speculation. So don’t dream too much, there may be “only” new camcorders on Sunday :)
SAR readers are welcome comment this post with their wish list for the A9 camera! And join the Sony A9 facebook group ;)
