After the Sony A9III launch speculations started to go around the web that the A1II also might feature a global shutter sensor tech. I do believe that at this time this is unlikely to happen. Yes, on paper it’s possible the A1II could feature a 50MP global shutter with 60fps. This would theoretically match the…

A global shutter lets you use flash at a much wider range of shutter speeds: so you can use a short exposure to prevent a sunset blowing out, but still light your subject with a strobe. Sony FE 135mm F1. dpreview.com »

I got very good news for you! A couple of sources (Thanks!) confirmed the new Sony 28-70mm f/2.0 GM lens is surprisingly compact. Here is the info I got: Sony 28-70mm f/2.0 specs: 86mm filter size (Canon is 95mm and Sony 2470GMII is 82mm) Weight is around 900g (Canon is 1430g and 2470GMII is 695g)…
According to several trusted sources, Sony will unveil at least one new full-frame Alpha camera on November 19 (or November 20, depending on the time zone). The camera will be unveiled at the New York Creative Space event on November 20 and 21.
Trusted sources told me that Sony has a new product launch event planned for the end of November. We are nearly certainly getting a new Full Frame E-mount camera and possibly also a new lens! The source did NOT give any details about what exactly will be announced. But based on previous rumors, I know…
I know from reliable sources that the Sony A1II will be on the market in 2025. But that is all I know for sure. What I can share today is a message from a new source about the possible specifications of the Sony A1II.
A new source just sent me the image of an allegedly new Sony 28mm f/2. 8 FE pancake lens with the following text: Sony is about to launch a new full frame e-mount pancake lens to finally compete directly with the Canon 28mm f/2.
Folks, it’s time to get serious about the next generation of new Alpha cameras. Over the past few weeks, I’ve had several conversations with sources both familiar and new. And they all have the same leitmotif: no one has heard of a possible new Sony A7sIII successor. Now, I’m not omniscient, so maybe Sony has…
For the first time ever you can see an image of the Sigma 28-105mm f/2.8 lens that will be announced on September 5th. The lens will be available for E and L-mount cameras and have a filter size of 82mm and weight of 990g only. Don’t know the price yet but surely it will be…
