The new Sony A7rII is in Stock at FocusCamera (Click here). And as you see you get a lot of free extras too! UPDATE: Now sold out!
They also have a superkit offer on the A6000 too (Click here).
And on August 25 there is a special event at FocusCamera in NYC (info here).
Our friend and really independent reviewer Tony Northrup posted that new test video where he again compares the new Sony A7rII with the Nikon D810 and Canon 5DSr. Reminder: Only Store having the A7rII in Stock now is Digitalrev (with worldwide shipment).
Note: With really independent I mean reviewers that don’t are members of any company program and do not get their cameras from the companies for testing. That said being independent doesn’t mean the reviewer is good and a non independent is bad. Be genuinely skeptical on every test you read :)

SAR reader Patrick Murphy-Racey tested the new Sony A7rII with some massive tele lenses:
I think you will dig this video. I shoot a tennis player with three long lenses that have not been talked about much. Most of the testing online has been with Canon short glass so I thought it might be nice to take the monster 600L into a dark indoor tennis court and shoot action at 12,800 ISO. The files are pretty amazing from the new camera and end up 120.7 megs each!!! here is the video:
SAR reader Gilles Frydman sent us that nice picture of the new Sony A7rII with Meike grip and the Tamron 150-600mm f/5-6.3 SSM superzoom. he also said the “Meike battery pack MK-A7II Pro which seems to work great, at about 1/3 of the Sony price“. You can see image samples shot with that combo on his Facebook page. You can buy the Meike grip on Amazon US (Click here) or via many [shoplink 39175 ebay]eBay sellers (Click here)[/shoplink].

I got this from a very new source so please as usual take it with a grain of salt. The source claims to know the specs of a new 8K FZ mount camera:
“Sony is working on a 8K Cine Alta camera which will replace the current top of the line Sony F65 camera. The sensor will be based on the A7r2 back-lit CMOS technology and will include a global shutter mode (either mechanical or electronic)
– 60FPS in DCI 8K resolution
– 240FPS in DCI 4K resolution
– 16 bit RAW uncompressed and compressed onboard recorder
– ProRes, DNxHD, DNxHR, AVCHD, XAVC, SR, MPEG-2, H264
– Burst mode allows for higher FPS
– Sony F55 form factor and weight
– To be introduced in early 2016

Thanks source!

5 Questions for Daniel Watson About the Sony A7R II (Explora BHphoto).
Robbert: “Shot my first real shoot with the new A7Rii yesterday and it performed fabulously. Used it connected to my MacBook Pro running Capture One and the files where transferring to the laptop pretty fast. The autofocus was running perfectly and the files that are coming out of the camera are rich, detailed just beautiful. Also thumbs up for Sony for the new cable management thingie that’s in the box with the Rii!! The first result of the shoot can be found here: https://flic.kr/p/xc44eR”
Gilles: “Something interesting: On the A7R we had to use the sony adapter la-ea4 to gte good results. The AF was slow but accurate. I saw Brian Smith explaining early that with the A7RMK2 it’s highly preferable to use the sony adapter la-ea3 because the AF is handled directly by the body. Sounded great. I got a la-ea3 on Saturday and was surprised to find that my Zeiss 1.4 85mm was not recognized as an AF lens. Then tested all my lenses and got weird results. The Sigma ART 35 works fine. The Sigma ART 50 tries to get focus and then restarts, never able to focus completely. 1/3 of the Zeiss lenses are working (Sony-Zeiss Alpha A-Mount 24mm f/2 SSM does but neither the 85mm nor the 135 mm work). The Tamron 150-600 works like a charm. The store where I bought the adapter talked to a Sony rep this am who confirms that the adapter has incompatibility issues. If that is true Sony A-mount lens users have a real problem. Painful, inexplicable and inexcusable. We should find more from Sony engineers.”
Ryan: “I just posted a blog post with some sample images and initial thoughts on the new A7Rii. I will also be running this camera through its paces in the studio today with the Profoto B1 strobes. Tomorrow I’ll be shooting environmental portraits with the A7Rii and Profoto B2 strobes. http://www.sniperphotoblog.com/2015/08/sony-a7rii-high-res-samples-lets-see.html”
