What you see here is obviously one of the most fake…fakes ever made 🙂 It’s a collected wishful thinking of features 🙂 Just click on image below to read the funny specs:

I wish they would put the A7s into a body like that if it has the same flip screen as the a99. I love the size of my A7s camera but there are times I would like a more pro body that is weather sealed. I wouldn’t mind if it had the E mount either.
I wish (as compact as possible) APS-C
with fixed 30-90/4
with tilting display
with a7’s potential
without viewfinder.
something like LX100 but… way better 🙂
On the weather sealing front, this is worth a read:

Anyone e got an idea if this is sealed to the same level as the a77?i was perfectly happy using mine in the rain with the 16-50 and figured the a7 and 55/1.8 had the same level of sealing…

These are fake specs…so tell us what you do know…what type of sensor will Sony make?
Foveon
Color Sampling
Bayer
Other?
I thought you know Barry! Didn’t you have all the information last time from your own sources?
Why bother putting it in the first place, Mr. Admin?
because:
1) it’s on the web and many asked me if it’s real. Therefore the post to make it clear that iage everyone sees now on forums is fake (andI suppose that’s part of a rumor site to write about it or not?)
2) It’s also nice to discuss sucha a possible design. Just for fun and because as a rumor site we are interested to discuss features and design of future cameras.
Is there really anything to discuss? E-mount with a panoramic sensor?
It’s not only that. Example DSLR E-mount design.
The “APCS sensor” news was first leaked by this guy…..
Because we like SR0 also 🙂
Because he owns the site and he does WTF he wants… LOL
Because he wasn’t that sure if it’s really just a joke.
Looks pretty compact for a 4K camera if it has internal recording. 🙂
It may have been leaked in China via Weibo but it didn’t originate there. The spec sheet is all in Japanese!
Where else do these things usually happen first. If i were to fake a leak, and could write in Japanese, i would definitely use that to my advantage. If anything it just adds another level of mystery.
the “japanese” spec sheet is part of the joke–the font doesn’t look right and the language is also off.
Barry! Barry!
Lol. Chapanese spec sheet gives it all away. The weirdest part of those guys is that they hate Japan with a passion but yet try to learn the language… (with just mediocre success). Go figure.
Well, what if it’s not a fake ??? It’s time for Sony to come with 4K camera’s anyway ,so the A7000 and maybe other A-mount camera will have 4K that’s a fact, I hope they come very very soon.
FE but looks like a99….lol
This is posted by the guy who leaked the APCS sensor tech first….I think this guy did this on purpose , part real part fake
I like te body, wih it would be true to come like this. The firste really pro body
it does bring the question onto the table…. who bought feveon factory?! we know it is sold…but to whom!
We know they didn’t even own it to begin with.
While it is undoubtedly fake, if Sony releases a full frame mirrorless camera with a 1:1 Fovean-like sensor, with good high-ISO performance, I would be interested.
So would I, because IBIS makes the low maximum ISO less of a problem.
Awww whit! Gutted 🙁
If it’s not E-mount but A-mount, there may be enough space for a RGB Prism for 3cmos sensors. So I guess, if this rumor is partially real, this is a A-mount super35mm+wide 3 cmos Video Camcorder with a Dichroic Prism. Not a fobion sensor cam.
Unfortunately a video camera for a-mount doesn’t make much sense…
Andrea, any news on RX100M4 or A5500 or something similar to LX100 with 4K? Or should I switch to Panasonic 🙂
Am I the only one who thinks the integrated vertical grip is totally useless in VDSLR which a) is never used for shooting in portrait mode b) 99% of the time is installed in a rig. Even the fakes need to be done with some consideration…
funniest thing about it
could imagine it to be usefull to house the extra electronics and heat dissipation needed for 4K recording. Before I went sony I have been using a lot of canon 1D bodies. Have to say they still score the best scores on comfortableness in the hand. Especially feels nicer in the hand with bigger lenses. If this could also house a bigger battery I wouldn’t mind.
I would appreciate, if the upcoming Pro A-Mount would look like this fake film camera.
Like this one?
Yep.
Guess I have never used my former A900 or my current A99 without VG, so I’d appreciated a native one.
this is clearly just a joke/a piece of fan art. why call it fakest fake?
I hope the A99m2 would look like this Except keep the vertical grip shutter release position from the A77m2/A99! Screw the E-mount!
Funny fake: it says “E mount” and the color of the “sensor” is the same as the SLT color of the A99 (looking at internet pics) while the “sensor” looks like has the same ratio of the 1:2.35 movie.
Anyway, let’s pretend the new A99 is gonna look like this one: with built in vertical grip as a rumor posted by Admin. Or the new A9 is gonna look like the A7II but with built in vertical grip and swivel LCD.
It’s gonna be thought to decide which one to get, to replace my A900.
I’m going with the A99II, the Zeiss 50mm, and keeping my A850/grip/hvlf58. I’d be easier to part with my wife than my A850. It’s so much more dependable.
I hear you… 😀
The best would be if they came out with an A99, A99R and A99S.
I don’t care about 4K, since I don’t even know what’s AVCD, AVHD, SLog2 or whatever, but I’d buy an ISO monster sporting the sensor of the A7S.
Correction: it’s gonna be tough… (Damn autocorrection… LOL)
Running an ‘Online Photoshop Detector’ on the first Photo tells me that: 1. All the writing on the front has had some alteration (even the name “Sony” and the ‘a’, why that was done is unclear), 2. the Mount and Sensor were altered, 3. the bottom was added.

Running a TinEye on the first Image tells me that the closest match is a Sony a77: https://d1w5usc88actyi.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/891513.jpg
The second Image seems to be a Photo from an Apple Camera also, why they would photograph it, and it would have such low resolution, is unclear. Why was there no original Image or a .PDF available, hmmm.
The Specs. seem to purport a Sensor 2x wider than usual, IE: 32:9, unlikely. Some of the other Specs. are not too far fetched from Sony’s upcoming Sensor. This a poor attempt to fake a leak for the upcoming, rumored, Sony ‘a9’, which is thought to have their newest “21 stop dynamic range Sensor”.
Not a good fake, nor the worst. How is this the “fakest fake ever”, what about the Hoverboard or Pamela Anderson’s most prominent assets, are they less fake this these Photos. No.
The wording in the spec sheet even contains wrong Japanese with funky Chinese nuance. LOL.
I think we’re all hoping for a little A99II news. My A900 is now close to five years old, and I simply won’t replace it with anything other than the A99II.
Aaaand, I’d by it in a heartbeat. Key features: fast operation a77 ll/a6000 speed, great flash system with great ISO handling and clean video recording a la a7s. Sony, can you do it? Had to switch to Canon 5DMk3 for photography
Nobody thinks this looks legit?
With a super 35 chip? Sure… Nothing makes sense here.
Funny the admin didn’t fell for it as usual. I hope he’s OK.
