Sony has officially released the live stream video for tomorrow’s announcement (see above). I turned up the brightness to see more of the MASSIVE, editable EVF:

The preorder page is up at BHphoto (with preorders opening on Maz 29).

Sony FX2 specs:

  • 33MP sensor of the Sony A7IV and Sony A7cII
  • AI chip
  • integrated tilting EVF (resolution unclear yet).
  • The EVF is nothing like the LUMIX GX9. It’s big! Like the GFX100 one.
  • mechanical shutter
  • AI AF
  • 4k60 super 35
  • 32 bit float audio
  • Body is thicker than the FX3
  • cooled FX body (active ventilation)

The Sony 16mm F1.8 is an excellent lens : ultra sharp, very compact and light, top ergonomics and AF , vire nice bokeh balls and color rendering, very good resistance to flare. It is of the same family and quality as the Sony 20mm F1.8 G . It will ideal for landscape , low light street photography, or astrophotography
