Sony sent out an invitation for a press event related to the IFA show in Berlin. On September 3 at 16:15 Sony will unveil their new products which will certainly include the new Z3 smart phone (with curved sensor?) and the QX30 (with 30x zoom). This is normally NOT the place for regular A or E-mount announcements which are likely to be made before that date in late August.
P.S.: There may be also the chance that Sony splits the product unveiling in 2-3 separate announcements…
Reminder: $80 off on the QX10 and QX100 at Amazon US (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).

Rumors from anonymous and new sources are coming in almost daily now. According to one of them the next Sony A99II (or whatever the final name will be) is going to use the same 36MP Sony A7r sensor. The real highlight will be the fastest autofocus of the world (which Sony claims to be from the A6000 right now). The camera is also featured with NFC and Wifi while rumor has it that there is no built-in GPS because apparently customers do not care about having that feature. Keep your feet on ground for now until trusted sources will confirm the A99II launch and specs.
The source also said the current A99 will keep remaining for sale with likely lowered price. Right now Sony sells them for $1,799 only at [shoplink 27915 ebay]eBay US (Click here)[/shoplink].
The camera is likely going to be introduced along a new Sony 24-105mm G lens. Hopefully that lens will match or even beat the already very good Sigma 24-105mm f/4.0 lens performance.
