The Sony NEX leaking time may just started in an unusual way. Top fashion photographer Clayton Nelson claims to have taken these images with the new Sony NEX-7R prototype camera he got from Sony:

UPDATE: Pictures have now been removed by the authot. This means Sony asked him to remove the images 🙂
His first feedback is:
I emailed Sony some of the images I took earlier in the week, explaining how delighted I was with the camera, especially the color sensor. These cameras are far beyond playthings. I believe that they can be utilized as substantial tools in an artistic format. They are certainly not toys..
He posted the info today and let’s hope he will post more tidbits tomorrow too!

I hope you saved the pictures because they seem to have taken them down!
Exactly. Any hint about the sensor? Is it different? More mp?
Are you sure that the account has been legit? Did you check the images?
BS. Just grabbing SonyAlphaRumors ‘thunder’, and embellishing with you own words on this site. Where is the factual information it is coming in October and that the name is NEX-7R? Tsk-tsk!
actually, I want this NEX7 successor, it’ll be more practical than the NEX FF.
I think many people actually prefer this over the FF version of the NEX7.
An advantage of having a FF body along with an APS-C lens equipped body ( as my NEX6). And to also invest in only FF lenses, is that you can gain on the zoom by a crop factor of 1.5x. So for example, my 58mm f1.4 Minolta MFN lens will become an 87.5mm. On my NEX6 also at F1.4 after applying the crop factor. So, thee FF lenses can perform double duty when having both bodies, which is my intention.
… PR people are really getting lazy on how they do leaks these days… :/
