We are getting very closer to the NEX announcements! Sony now officially labeled the NEX-3 and suprise suprise the NEX-5 as “Previous Models”! (Check that links at Sony UK). We know the NEX-C3 will be announced within the next couple of weeks but what the NEX-5 replacement is expected to be announced in autumn. Maybe Sony decided to push the NEX-C3 and to stop the production of the NEX-3 and NEX-5. I am now working to find out the exact date of the NEX-C3 announcement. Stay tuned on SAR!!!

We all already knew that this lens was coming. And now here it is. The Sony 30mm f/3.5 macro for NEX. Sony Service Canada does list the lens and the french store Camara.fr said the 30mm lens price is 259 Euro. But we can already tell you that’s certainly not the only lens Sony will announce within next couple of weeks More about that soon ;)

P.S.: Sony already made a 30mm but for Alpha mount and with f/2.8 aperture. Check [shopcountry 6843].

I still don’t know when Sony will officially launch the NEX-C3 but we got new info about the price and availability from new sources. The official price of the NEX-C3 with 18-55mm kit lens will be 549 Dollars/Euro. That’s the exact price of the current (discounted) [shoplink 3000]Sony NEX-3[/shoplink]. We have been told that there will be limited shipments in late June/early July. That because of the current production issues in Japan.

Sorry readers but I need to send a message to one of my anonymous sources.

For “Tom”… can you please contact me using a fake gmail account? Need to know more about what you said because I am bit surprised about the content. Thanks for your help!

I have a bunch of messages for our sources (AXL, Tip. and the others).

1) I havn’t received any confirmation from other sources about the exact A77 launch date in July. But I am going to post the rumor soon with SR4 value.
2) I received the final price of the A77 with kit lens from three different sources. Last question. What kind lens do you mean? The current 18-55mm or the rumored new constant aperture lens?
3) Can you confirm the 26 May lens announcement? Is the 24mm f/1.7 Zeiss coming too?
4) Some news about the NEX-C3 and A35 possible announcement date?

Thanks!
