Dear readers,
On October 20 2010 I posted the first correct rumor about the A77 saying it would be translucent and feature a new 24 Megapixel sensor. And now finally we can see the real camera in less than 24 hours!
Live on SAR tomorrow:
Tomorrow morning (at around 6-7-8am London time) you can follow the announcement on SonyAlphaRumors. Here are some things you should know:
1) If for some reasons the website will crash I will post all news on MirrorlessRumors.com ….yes even if the A77 is not an Mirrorless camera 🙂
2) As you know I will sum up all news, reviews image samples and so on in a single article which will be continually updated. But pleas do not reload the page every single minute. be a bit patient. Help me to not make crash this website!
3) Feel free to help me by sending the links to interesting news and reviews you can find on your web! Please always send me the links to the original source and nto the text only! Thanks!
Apology: I confess the last days have been very busy for me. I am quite exhausted because I really had to watch for news every hour and it was hard to work on my real job and on SAR contemporaneously. That’s why I need to apologize for…
1) not answering all your emails
2) not having time to follow some of the discussions on SonyAlphaRumors
3) my more than usual poor written English (As you know I never learned English)
Thanks: The most exciting and surprising experience I had were not the Sony leaks, but the many many people from all over the world that helped me by sending news and rumors, links to articles, reviews and images. During the last weeks I have been in touch with so many nice people that I really have been overwhelmed by so much help! I guess the real value of this website are the network of people that it has created allowing SAR readers to get quick news and rumors about Sony stuff. That’s why I send a BIG HUG to all those that were so kind to be part of that adventure. And that positive feeling makes me want to keep working on that website for a long time! Thanks!!!
One more thing: The future rumors: The same sources that gave me correct info about all the new Sony cameras are already sending me bits of info about the next DDAY in 2012. The event will be important for everyone seeking full frame cameras and lenses. And that will be the new rumor adventure we will have to go the next months. As I said, there are at least three new FF cameras coming and the new lens quantity is much bigger!
Thanks!
Andrea (exhausted but happy)

The Best rumor website out there and keep up the good work. Many Thanks!
Thanks for all your efforts, admin! It is really appreciated and I think I’ve checked you site about 10 times/day for the last week.
Keep up the excellent work!
No need to apologize! Thanks for your hard work!
“HARD WORK” this was a good one 😉
Thank you for all the hard work you put into this site. You do your best to bring us all the info you can and have an honest system to express what you believe to be the accuracy of the rumors. Moreover, you never cast a negative vibe, which is great in the fact of obvious competition among brands. Hopefully after tomorrow’s big announcement you can relax for a little while at least until the rumor mill winds up to full speed again.
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice work Andrea and very much appreciated. Thanks.
As said by JS, no need to apologize, and your written English is certainly not a problem!
Keep up the good work, I’m looking forward – which is certainly an understatement – to Wednesday and what next DDay will bring on FF. BR.
Bing on 2012, want to see the FFs! Before I get my 70-400G, is these FFs going to come out in time for the Olympics?
Grazie per tutto, Andrea 🙂
idd no need to apologize! great work!
Thanks for the rumors. Keep up the great work
Already excited for D-day 2012, new effing lenses.
Thanks for the work Admin.
Andrea, you know this already, but just to reitirate – you are the best 😀
Thanks for the great work!
one of the most dynamic (if not D dynamic)site for rumors – well posted and served for us readers. it is a real treat to read your posts and readers comments – WELL DONE for all the hard work and KEEP US POSTED 😉
P.S
Sony should send you a free round trip invitation for tomorrow announcement or for future announcements, rewording you on a great P.R. you do for them, making the Sony Shooters up-to-date (something Sony lake off)
tnx for a great job 🙂
B.T.W
FF camera round about when (Oct.2012 or Sep. 2012)? any clue as of now?
I totally agree with AnYpHoTo.:)
Those future rumours sound delicious. Keep ’em coming.
Thanks a lot Andrea!
If it wasn’t for this site I think I would have already moved to ‘the dark site’.
Thanks for all the great updates/rumors. Good job.
Keep up the good work Andrea.
Ur English is just fine!
And if u need commercial banners on this site to stay alive, just do it. I dont think people would mind when its for a good cause.
Be the best Andrea! Keep it up!
Thank you for your great work.
I’ll accept your big hug if you’re a ladies. LOL
BTW , SAR give me a lot of fun and browse SAR for the news and rumors being a part of my life.
I’m a canon user , but quite interesting in Sony system while the A77’s rumor has been raise. Actually if a new FF camera has been introduce and a wide-angle Tilt-Shift lens (somewhat like T-SE 17mm….) introduce for Alpha system , I will go for it and had a try.
Andrea is a guy, so that could be embarrassing for both of you.
I know that of cause~ so I said will accept if he is a girl , LOL
Thanks for all the work and good luck tomorrow!
Already looking forward to the new stuff ..
Admin, I watch almost only your sites because every important info is here and it saves my time.
I would be glad if more people move to mirrorlessrumors.com in future so it could be dominant not fanboy or brand related, but top gear page 🙂
How do you expect to achieve it?
because we like sony alpha a lot ~!
Thanks for all your hard work Andrea.
This site is great. The rumors are usually accurate, but it’s always good to be able to discuss things with other Sony shooters. Especially since there aren’t that many of us around!
Sony should really love you, because I bet all of those promises of new stuff have kept a lot of people staying with the Sony system. I know I’ve had my doubts at times, but the a77 looks fantastic, and you’re already talking about 3 new full frames, more lenses etc. That’s enough to keep ME interested, and I bet I’m not alone!
Thanks again for all your work, seriously 😀 😀
Thanks you so much for all the news 😀
“…contemporaneously”.
“As you know I never learned English”.
You actually learned it quite well, it would seem. 🙂
That’s a direct translation from Italian.
Thank you admin for all your hard work…much appreciated.
As soon as your homepage popup in front of me, I hit refresh to see for if any new updates.
THANK YOU !
Feels like I am the most up-to-date man on Sony Alpha World in my community … lol.

Tommorrow is a big day for us all, and you kept the spirit alive al these months.

Andrea, Also can you find out what is the status of the 500 f4. There has been no talk of it over the last couple of months. That would have been a great lens with the A700.
Delayed until early 2012!
Mmmh… reading your last post I thought, for a moment, that you were talking about A77… oooh, my God… my heart was breaking down… 😉 😉 😉
Thanks Admin for your hard work.
Your English is great! I would worry if your English was like one of those computerized Japanese to English translations. But it is not. What is your first language?
Italian.
No, German!
I criticized you in the past. But now must apologize. You are doing tremendous job.
Thank You )
Thank you, for your work.
I’m addicted to it.
Thank you for all your efforts Andrea. I’ve been hooked on SAR for the past couple of months.
