Good Morning!
It may be hard for many to wake up on Monday and go back to work. But good for you I can tell you that you can keep visiting SonyAlphaRumors for the next weeks as plenty of news are coming via Sony.
Yesterday you saw the images from the new NEX-3n and the new A58 plus the three new A-mount lenses. I am still not sure about the announcement date although it should be this week on February 20th or by next week.
A particular interest may be the new A58 sensors that should be the first of a new generation sensor with High Dynamic Range.
And now the one more thing: I just heard about a second announcement to follow 2-3 weeks after that one with new E-mount stuff! So stay tuned on SAR. The show started!

E-Mount stuff = NEX-7 successor and 85 1.8 lens?
not the 85mm f/1.8. Something else 🙂
P.S.: Sorry for not posting info now but I am trying to make that rumor SR5 with my trusted sources!
If it is still a few weeks off, couldn’t you post it as an SR3 to throw us a bone? XD

Thanks for the info! That means the NEX-7 successor is just around the corner. Oh man, I’m so gonna buy this.
The price will be interesting though. With the NEX-6 body priced at €700, they may need to sell the 7 for 999 rather than 1.199 -or they give us a cookie. 🙂
OH, please, please, send me a birthday present on April 4th saying it’s the E-Mount Zeiss 16 – 80 mm zoom you talked about last fall.

Yesterday you saw the images from the new NEX-3n and the new A38 plus the three new A-mount lenses.
A38 is typo??
My guess is A58.
Is there any info about A78 for this week ??
That’s months away.
Thanks for the news. I bought a A57 one week ago and I still have the chance to send it back. When will the A58 be in stock? Any idea or information?
It’ll be a fair bit higher price than your A57.
Yeah I know. It’s ok but I really hope that I can benefit from the sensor and the new focus system (?)
Cameras are usually available one month from announcement.
…so today here it’s rumours about rumours 😀
Yeah, it’s soooo exciting. 😛
Does High Dynamic Range and the fact that the detail in the shadows is increased mean that this new sensor is a foveon sensor?
Not even a sign of a Foveon sensor in the Air. Sony’s stacked CMOS sensors are throught for compacts primarily currently.
It does not at all imply a multilayer sensor. A multilayer sensor will give better resolution, especially of coloured textures, but dynamic range and low light performance may well be worse – at least in the early versions.
I didn’t saw a38 image yesterday. i would be happy if i had.
Delayed or cancelled? Who knows?
It would make sense to push A38 users to the NEX system though.
NEX system in general is expensive. Don’t you think so.
Yes. But when comparing the A37/NEX3 street prices here there isn’t much difference between them.
Of course there is more to it than the basic kit price, but perhaps the A3x isn’t a big seller for Sony and they think that lower-end users only buy the kit lens anyway, so why not push them to a NEX3 with a E-mount 18-55mm instead?
True. Most may never need more than a kit.
I think this is a mistake, he meant the A58.
yep! he did but it felt good.
yep sorry!
Hoped it is not an emount 10-18mm lenses II with power zoom. Yawn, sony is good in doing this kind of things!
Hope the e-mount announcement will be the G Zoom lens (hope for fast zoom), but a Nex 7 successor can make me happy too!
Fingers crossed for a 16-105mm E-mount which will be a little bit smaller and lighter than the 18-200mm and has internal lens movement so the lens does not extend when zooming in.
f2.8 lens for e mount
Sony,sony,sony… where is my 70-200ssm2 !?
did something happen to your original 70-200? You’re not complaining about the optics are you?
