————————

Like it happened with the A77II announcement there seems to be slighty changes on the exact announcement hour and date. I just have learned that unlike the previous rumor I got the RX100M3 and A7s (pricing) announcement will take place on May 16 and not tomorrow May 15.

So please spread the word. that there is a 24 hours delay. Will let you know as soon as I know the exact announcement hour although usually this kind of announcements happen at around 5-6am London time.

Note: After the May 16 announcement I will start to work more “deeply” on the Photokina rumors which means new A-mount FF cameras, new RX2, new Medium format camera rumors and the next generation E-mount cameras.

Tomorrow (May 15) is the big Sony announcement day and you have to follow it live on May 16 (5-6 am London time) on SonyAlphaRumors.

A7s: And right now the official Sony Luxemburg store has listed the final A7s price which is set at 2295 Euro! Shipment will be late July! The same store sets the price of the A7r at 1899 Euro. That makes the A7s 20% more expensive. We can speculate the price in US to be 20% higher than the A7r too ($2295 here at Amazon). It would mean the A7s could price could be around $2750. UPDATE: The site now removed the pricing info!

RX100M3: Sony Luxemburg also leaked the RX100MIII price which is 849 Euro (which confirms our rumors were right!). Shipment July 8!

Stay tuned on SAR!!!

Thanks to the anonymous source for sending me the links ;)

I have been told the A7s pricing will be announced soon and also that Sony will say the A7s will ship in June. But like I told you before expect real shipment in early July as best. I am yet not sure but the pricing could be announced on Thursday already because by then Sony will have an official press release for the RX100M3 launch.

I really do hope Sony doesn’t go crazy high with the price. The current only competitor is the Panasonic GH4 (priced at $1699 at Amazon). While the A7s has a larger sensor and superb High ISO performance the Panasonic can do internal 4K, has much faster AF and 10 bit 4:2:2 output. In my opinion the price should be just below $2,000 for the A7s too!
