Exactly what I read on Flickr a couple of minutes earlier. Too bad it won’t be the A7XX :(.
Video? Booooring. I just want a Full Framer that has the higlight-dynamic range and colourreproduction like that from analogue film. Thats it, no hdr, no 500fps, no meaningless functions and uselss amateur modes..
Will it ever happen?!

I just want a interchangable lens camera that can shoot 1080p60 video as well as native 24p into prores codec with hdmi out for critical focus monitoring
@smarterthanyou :
+10 🙂
So from this post there will be at least 2 alpha cameras this summer that have video, but the a7xx will not be one of them? I am a bit confused. So what are these cameras going to be?
It’s good to hear that the next Alpha series cameras will have HD video but a timetable of when this will happen would have been useful. May is slowly slipping away…. and there still hasn’t been a replacement to the A700 and just yesterday the A900 was discontinue in Sony Hong Kong. I love Sony but a bit more insight on product releases would be helpful.
Two weeks ago a very good source told me that the new A2xx/3xx cameras will be introduced in May/June. I had heard much the same, on the web, several times, but this source had it from Sony sources. Of course, Andrea had heard that these cameras would be introduced in this period, but without video. But I think that doesn’t make sense. I’m afraid we’ll have to wait until later, however, for the breakthrough cameras at the 7 / 7xx levels.
Where is the firmware upgrade?
I never bother about video feature on a DSLR( in my PnS camera alone I don’t even bother)….but if Sony decide to put on their next Alphas..I don’t mind too.
Good news, i postponed buying a550 in the hope of this, you never know when it might be convenient to have DSLR quality video at your hands.
I have also posponed buying canon 550d… Because canon have ignored the PAL region! in fact you can have 25p instead of 24 and bla bla bla, but it does not work well- for some reason the footage is glitchy! google it…
People on the video forums are shouting!!! please give us working, non overheating, cheap video DSLR that can shoot in a variety of options including 50p 1080 and 24/25 native 1080 …. Sony please do it!!!
Please, Sony, if you continue to insist on putting those IQ-degrading translucent mirrors in your DSLR bodies, at least give us the ability to lock up the mirror so we can get the most out of the camera’s sensor! Not all of us need or want the ability to shoot sports, which is the only thing those mirrors are good for. Some of us would rather get the best image quality possible out of our camera.
