Image on top shows the current Sony A7c. The new High end APS-C camera will look very similar to it.

Another source basically confirmed what we know so far and added some tidbits (Thanks!):

  • same EVF, LCD resolution
  • same tilt screen
  • same new menus
  • only minor tweaks to a7c body
  • BUT improved IBIS using smaller APS-C sensor
  • New sensor
  • higher resolution over current APS-C line
  • same FPS as a6600 but now pushing larger files
  • improved low-light performance
  • reduced rolling shutter
  • video specs may be close to a7c
  • price similar to a7c

Share

George Moua had this super cool idea:

Hey, folks. I’m excited to open the first round of bespoke small batch production run of my 3D printed 3D stereoscopic wiggle lens for Sony E mount in APS-c and Full-Frame, and for Fuji X mount!My goal is to build up funds to purchase a used Canon RP to start working on finalizing the RF version (ATM they’re averaging $900 USD on eBay). So, how’s this going to work? I’ve 20 preorder slots for each version for a total of 60 preorder slots.

First batch has been already sold out on his website: georgemoua.com/3d-wiggle-lens
