Sony is doing quite a big marketing campaign for the new RX100MII and RX1R cameras! It’s the first time I see them partner up with Amazon to organize a livestream. It will start today and you can send your questions too! Here is the message with links included:

Gorgeous cameras. Good that they finally decided to advertise them.
So what time will it be in europe?
19:00 in the Netherlands.
Thx
Ask about the Honami/i1, lol, but seriously ask and see what happens!
Standard reply should be that Sony cannot comment on rumours, speculation or any potential future product developments.
From the photo, it seems that RX100 II is slightly bigger (taller) than the RX1R.
It’s not a photo.
Seriously no need for an RX10, when the RX100-II is a fierce competitor to even the Ricoh GR…
Could be fun with a RX120 with a fixed 50mm/f1.2 (35mm equiv.) and 1inch Exmor R
your rx120 seems interesting…
They are doing more and more serious advertizing it seems. I saw the last 8 pages of Popular Photography last month were devoted to Sony news, how to, and informational pages. Called Imaging Edge. http://www.popphoto.com/imaging-edge
Sony’s working on its popularity. Big show in the Netherlands yesterday for the known customers. Every product of Sony’s photo and videoline was there, along with Zeiss’s. A lot of RX100’s and RX1’s. 30% discount on everything, I heard. Free sensor cleaning. Free workshops (Lightroom, nature, etc). Free drinks and food. An older couple were seriously considering the purchase of the 500 mm, which was ‘only’ 8.000 euro now. Had to keep my hand firmly on my wallet, the money wanted to be set free 🙂
A lot of people were there. Very many of them were formerly P&S owners now Nex users. “Wow, if you shoot that RAW-stuff you can develop a picture much better than the camera can”. “Er, Sir, can you tell me how lens-changing works?” Had a fun day. Thanks Sony! 😉
Whaaa, where was that !?
It looks like Sony (finally) has started to improve its visibility: good sign!
Keep advertising and do it on tv as well as Nikon does.
Yeah Sony camera have wonderful sensors, they should build up more robust software around it. And more importantly advertise about it.
