Yes, the A7000 is on the way, with weather sealed, 3 Axis IBIS, new 24MP sensor, 12Fps, touchscreen, a bit bigger, better bat. live, very quick start up time, very good high ISO, and what did I forget ?? also 3 WEATHER SEALED lenses : 16-70 F4 , 16-50 F2.8, 18-200 F4 – F5.6.
You forgot ‘it will be A-mount’.
Dual Mount. By pressing a button, the mount moves in by 26.5 mm and changes shape to connect to e-mount lenses. Pressing the button again, it moves back to say hello to beercan, pocket rocket, secret handshake, stf and all the other a-mount-legends.
Sounds exactly like what I ‘need’. Hope they release it tomorrow! 🙂
No tgd bargain is only today. Tomorrow it will be just a A7000 with IBIS and maybe Leveling gauge if they did not forget but same Sensor than A6000;)
Actually, you might be surprised!
Not exactly shape changing, but definitely morphable.
14 bit, too
16 bit….
24 bit!
36 bit
So I heard the A7s got internal 4K…. only 24fps, but pretty cool eh?
We only need a trivial FREE update firmware
The Japanese April’s fool says that Sony has merged with Mitsuo and the new company is called Mitsui-Soko Supply Chain Solutions, Inc
Bwahahahahaaha…. … I don’t get it.
Sony stops producing sensors: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Geruecht-Sony-stellt-Sensorproduktion-ein-2593307.html
Perhaps I’m missing something, but isn’t the point of April Fools that the prank or story is actually funny? The 2 that I could read seemed just to mislead, is that humour?
300$ is a honest and correct price for a piece of electronic. If sony sells their products for 300$ earn more than to pay thousands of dollars its products!!!!
The last one is no joke. Just a boring corporate announcement.
Sony has announced to release firmware updates to all current cameras, that will let you choose between three RAW formats: compressed ARW, uncompressed ARW and DNG.
I’m absolutely sure this is no joke.

“Somebody mixed my medicine. I don’t know what I’m on …”
Data as fake as your handle.
Sony Japan announced the 2014 profits were invested in a new 5 * hotels near HQ for the managers to welcome guests, make private parties 😉 Then they decided to follow Canon policy by slowing down any R&D projects except the ones with Apple and spare each year to give more dividends to shareholders
Sony announced they’re selling off their camera & sensor division to Samsung and decided to re-enter MP3 and TV Business which they have confident it will be a huge financial success.

I thought for sure we would of have a rumor about a firmware update for no lossy raw files…april fools!
Sony A9R leaked!

But the Lensrentals one isn’t a joke . . . . .
heise.de isn’t a joke. its about the future of ccd sensors, because they focus on cmos. also it is marked as rumor.
this rumour
http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Geruecht-Sony-stellt-Sensorproduktion-ein-2593307.html
is not new, and is NOT a rumour or april fools joke.
Sony stopped production of most CCD sensor types years ago, only some types are still in production, used in industrial and security cams. Producers of those devices where informed month ago about the production stop.
Here is a joke Sony will start making 14 bit raw, LLLLLLOOOOOOLLLLL
yes I have many of them:
