Huge surprise on the Sony front. They will announce a new A7s Full Frame E-mount camera that can record 4K video to compete against the Panasonic GH4.
The announcement will take place in Las Vegas at 7pm on Sunday. Other specs are yet not known!
One more thing: it’s a safe bet to say they will unveil new FE lenses too!

I’ll wait for the a7t, then 馃槈
I think they are also fixing some issues I would be surprised if it had all the flexibility of the GH4. And of course it cost quite a bit more
Many A7 users will be bummed as they just bought their A7. Unless it will cost a whole lot more and of course it will be a few years before 4k will be mainstream
So why is the A7/r referred to as E mount? It is FE mount. One can screw on an E mount lens but it is totally cropped so practically useless
I’m still waiting for the Nex7 update. Good luck to me it will never come out
So what is next an APS-C sensor for the RX100m2. :). But seriously how about a faster lens for the next RX100. Like F1.8-2.8. F4.9 just hurts it and how about a $150 EVF for it
I totally agree your opinion, +1
What flexibility? With 12 Mpix anf FF-sensor all the flexibility at least in image quality wise goes to A7s, as the low-light performance will be much better. Also the price could be similar to GH4, as the A7 price already is. Let wait and see. And no, there is no FE-mount. Thery is only E-mount and all the E-mount lenses are compatible, regardless of the image-circle. By the way, do you crop in post prodution? Does it somehow make your images useless?
According to dxo, a7r is quite a bit better than a7 in high iso and dr. So it’s not always true that smaller pixels lead to worse performance iso wise.
There is only E mount that takes both APS-C E mount lenses and full frame FE E mount lenses just like the Nikon full frame FX and DX lenses or Canon EF and EF-S lenses. The full frame VG900, A7 and A7r all have both full frame and APS-C modes. Do your research before you post.
At last! Bigger sensors mean more sensitivity.
I will be waiting for the A7s II
Hopefully it will have unlimited recording (at least in the USA)
I would also like to see 1080P120
Otherwise, at least the A7s will go down in price.
