In Hong Kong, it is just a invitation of register for getting news information related to A7ii, May be a chance to attend a possible announcement event and try on the new camera. Not a pre-order.
Exactly!
I placed my “unofficial” pre-order last week at my pro retailer.
He said I’ll be for sure his first A7II customer. 🙂
gosh! so pricey ><" will wait for 2 more years. A9 will hit $3499!
50% more than the A7 streetprice…..
And?
Don’t you get a value for the price tag?
A9 will hit 2999 euros !
With a A7II body priced at Sony A7R body price we can expect a A9 body at A7s body launch price?
As I intend to buy one, I would hope for such price.
However I assume it at around 3,5k.
this price MUST be WITH kit.
Nope 2099€ for the kit. Hopefully they’re just price gouging…
yeah… it’s a “new” technology.
Hi Andrea – is the German price the confirmed street price or just the usual pre-order fleecing?
my gues. the usual pre-order fee. just wait till this thing is listet at amazon.de. it usualy goes down in prices the day its available there.
That’s a relief. I got a pretty good deal on my a7 so I’m figuring I could probably sell it used without taking much of a hit…
if the deals good for you, do it. price on a7 will only go down not up in the future
Hier ein schweizer Artikel (inkl. paar Bilder) mit Preisangabe in CHF:

“Die Sony Alpha 7 II wird ab Januar 2015 in der Schweiz erhältlich sein. Die Preise liegen bei 2249 Franken für das Gehäuse (ILCE-7M2) und bei 2599 Franken für das Kit (ILCE-7M2K) aus Kamera und 28-70mm-Zoom (SEL-2870).”
1800 euros is a fishy exchange rate to say the least. What was the price in USd? It’s still cheaper than any of the obsolete Canon crap and their decade old sensors. Hopefully Sony will add a slideshow MP3 player, i loved that feature on my 6D. The cheap plasticky feel and for practical terms that single AF spot was like a trip in time to my Minolta 7000, minus the cheap feel. The noise in the shadows reminded me of Kodak T-Max 3200 accidentally developed in Kodalith at 30°C, only uglier. Oh well, it’s gone now, sold to fund this A7II, it’s time to dust off the Minolta MDs.
Well if you need to use your new A7 II in low light the performance will be worse than the 6D. More noise and AF that only goes to -1EV instead of -3EV. The 6D only uses plastic in it’s body on the on the top because of the GPS.
I just realized that the IBIS will be great for manual focusing. It can be challenging to focus with the imaged zoomed in when handholding the camera.
I guess I’ll have to order the German import version. I hope it comes with a pint of beer.
According to dpreview, it will be $1700 in the U.S. body only, $2000 with the 28-70mm lens. Availability (to order, probably) is around December 9.
B&H started taking US pre-orders this morning. $1700 body only, $2K with the kit lens. No ship date specified.
