Sony registered the “ILCE-5000” at Taiwan NCC (National Communications Commission). This approval is necessary for products with wireless capability. As you know in some countries the NEX-5t has that A5000 mark (see picture below). So I am not sure if that registered name is for a new camera or for the current NEX-5t. The weird thing is that the NEX-5T product has been already registered months ago. So why register it again?
Thanks J. for finding this!

I think this is more likely a A5000, which is a higher end model of the A3000
I hope that this is a A5000 higher model of the A3000, the A3000 was just a test from Sony without to many features needed to have any succes, so let’s hope this one could have al the necessary features to be a decent E mount camera.
This is the registration for a new device, the chinese on top of sheet translate to the device identification id #, and model id # is quit different than 5R and 5T.
A3000, A500, and in the near future A7000 to mirror the NEX line-up (NEX 3, 5 & 7).
I would jump all over A7000 with that nice ISO performance & all the features
of NEX6 + NEX7. I love that bridge-dSLR form factor.
And more exciting speculation: there may be a lower end A7: A5 & A3.
A3 entry level full frame 24 Megapixel, like Canon 6D, cheerleader
A5 mid range 24-30 Megapixel, enhanced video mode, faster shooting, smart & pretty
A7 high end 36 Megapixel and above, high IQ for studio & landscape, dynamic ISO, supermodel

Please tell us what you know about this spam or virus or whatever is affecting our phones whenever we are are on sar?
Hey Barry, maybe someone was so anoyed by your constant asking about the specs of the new sensor tech that he created that bug just for you 😉 sorry, couldnt resist 😛 but writing on my android at the moment without any problems, though i had the same popup travellig in thailand last month…
If it is a virus it would probably effect differrent phones differrently?
In any event admin would be better off telling us whats going on than leaving our speculations to run wild.
Hi!
I am working on it. I have no Android device yet and cannot test. But we will try to solve the issue soon…
Thanx
I for one do not have any problems with SAR using my android phone and tablet. Just thought i tell.
Same, I often come here from my Android phone, and the site looks perfectly fine.
thanks. Hard to solve a problem I don’t see. Asked a freind of mine who uses Andorid and he has no problem too. Can you send me a screenshot if you see the issue?
Same here. Every time I visit SAR with my smartphone (Android) my play-store automatically opens and want me to install some strange apps. Totally annoying. This happens only on SAR. Does someone have some info about this?
Sony A5 is coming for sure. A7 without the viewfinder. Prepare for the first sub-$1000 full frame camera.
admin,
Can you please tell us if you have any information about future aps-c e-mount lenses. I love my NEX and I’m not sure i need full frame sensor.
Thanks in advance 🙂
If this is indeed a new camera, re-using the a5000 codename for a different model, then kudos to Sony for raising its chaotic scheme to a new level! A truly unexpected move!!
