rendering of a possible A5 camera (Yukai)
A trusted source confirmed the new Sony entry level Full Frame camera is scheduled for a September announcement. When asked about the specs he said this:
“New entry level FF E-mount camera has very similar Sony A7III specs in body size of A6600“
This is what we heard so far about this new camera:
Reliable Sony A5 (or A6) specs from trusted sources:

- body size of the A6600

Specs from unknown or first time sources still to be confirmed (or denied) by trusted sources:
- new body design similar to a5xxx/a6xxx mixed metal and plastic.
- The grip is pretty large to accommodate the battery.
- 5 fps

- there is a pop-up evf with 770.000 pixels (2.3m points) 0.6x mag.
