Hasselblad (Click here) just launched the new Stellar website. Not a lot to see there a part of the different variations. No price and not shipping info are avaiable.
And here is the image of the Hasselblad Lunar Germany tour flyer.
P.S.: Some thoughts about the Sony-Hasselblad partnership by SAR reader Sam at Samdcruzphotography.com.
Here are new images from the Hasselblad Stellar, a camera many rich Golf Players were looking forward to buy! If you like 99,9% of all SAR readers don’t want to spend $3,000 for this than grab the superb “original” RX100 with lot of extras for $550 at [shoplink 19691 ebay]6ave on eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. And than you can buy a $29 grip on Amazon if you really need it (Thanks Stephen for the tip).

The next generation A-mount and E-mount Full Frame cameras will feature a newly designed Sony Full Frame sensor. There are three different versions that have been developed: 24, 32 and 36 megapixel sensors. It’s still hard to say which camera will use which sensor…
The first camera suing the new sensor shoudl be the NEX-FF!

You will have to pay more than $1,600 to get the Hasselblad RX100 clone named “Stellar”. But at least you get a nice case and strap for the money you spend. The camera will be announced on Friday. I am curious to see how much they will price the luxurious version of the RX1 or NEX-FF. I think it will be close to $10,000 :)

The Sony Hack project is still in a very early stage of development but I hope they can achieve some of the goals met by the guys from Magic Lantern. With the latest update they were able to add two amazing new features on the 5DmarkIII:
1) By exploiting unused dual ISO amplifiers on a sensor chip in the Canon 5D Mark III and 7D, new firmware allows you to record lighter parts of a scene at ISO 100 and darker portions at ISO 1600.
2) RAW video recording has been added.
Full details about the ML project can be read add magiclantern.fm. I hope Sony will take notice of these advancements. RAW video recording is one of the feature they could push into the next generation cameras.
