There is a new article at Luminous Landscape at their NEX-7 rolling review (Click here). They talk about the Creative Styles, EVF and Live View Display. First they show you a “trick” to control the contrast of the EVF (because in bright light the EVF contrast can be too high). And they also found a small bug related to histogram feature. I hope Sony will fix that minor issue with the new firmware. There is another small NEX-7 review at karaatanasov (Click here): “I had never seen so much details from an APS-C. Colors are astonishing. It seems the Dynamic Range in RAW is amazing too (I do not have RAW software.). Again on colors this is the first Sony camera to remenice of the Minolta days”
As you have read yesterday the NEX-7 is now shipping at Sonystore in USA. It should be available by mid January in Europe and Asia. Check these search links if the stores are accepting preorders: [shopcountry 8454].
Cameralabs (Click here) just posted the full NEX-5n review: “Sony has pulled it off and produced one of the most compelling mirrorless ILC models on the market and one we have no hesitation in granting our Highly recommended award.“.
Techradar (Click here) published a full A65 review: “The Alpha 65 is very well-specified in comparison to its rivals, matching or exceeding the competition’s feature-sets in many respects. It’s pricier, but we feel the impressive stack of high-end features that this camera has to offer more than outweigh its cost“.

Hello Andrea.. Things are starting to get hot with D4 and Canon 1D-X rumors/announcement.. How long before some fresh rumors about upcoming Sony FFs?
Working on it. I have some news I am almost ready to post. But I think Sony’s ff time will come 2-3 months after Nikons announcement.
rumors pleaseeeeeeee 😀
I could be totally wrong.. But I really expect the third FF camera to be a mirrorless A-mount (no translucent) with totally new sensor technology and killer high ISO performance.. Am I the only one dreaming/expecting something like that? I can’t imagine Sony stand there and watch 1Dx and D4 manage all the high ISO enthusiasts/workers out there.
Adobe released camera raw 6.6 and lightroom 3.6 final with support for sony nex-7. now i only need the camera 🙂
I hope the FF follows in the same design footsteps (for overall looks) as the NEX7 rather than the a77. That thing is a work of (usable) art! IMO.

Anybody try the EA2 adapter with the Tamron lenses? My 90mm macro did not AF. Sold my 85 and use this for general purpose shooting as well, so I hope that Tamron will support it as Sigma does…
If anyone is still looking to buy an A65 in the US, there’s a store in Indiana that had 4 yesterday, maybe one today. Their site said two, but I called and they said four, and so I dropped my Adorama backorder and bought one. They are offering $100 off if you buy with an extra lens. You can call them and see how many they have as well.

Does anybody know anything for england?
Fedex just delivered the 24mm f1.8…now, the NEX 7??
Just picked up a NEX VG 20 on Friday. WOW! That 5n sensor is a Sony masterpiece!
I’m completely amazed at how clean that beast is at +18db. Hell, even +24db is jaw dropping! You would expect far worse than what you get.
Great job Sony! That sensor and post processing combo are redifining the term “high ISO”. That sensor laughs at +12db. It spits in the face of +15db and it makes +18db It’s bitch! Lol
Amazing low light performer!
