New Sony Cameras Rumored For 20th February Announcement

New Sony Cameras Rumored For 20th February AnnouncementSo we know that on the 20th of February, Sony is expected to announce something related to the PlayStation, and some are speculating that it could be the long-awaited PlayStation 4. However according to Sony Alpha Rumors, they claim to have received a tip that states that Sony will be making another announcement on the 20th of February, although this time it is expected to be camera related. The timing is a bit odd and seemingly stepping on each other, but then again these are two different industries so maybe not so far-fetched after all (we still have our doubts though). According to their source, it is possible that the Sony NEX-3n will be announced, as well as the A38 and possibly the A58 as well. This is a bit contradictory considering the previous rumor suggested that the A38 and A58 could see March-April announcements. Either way it looks like the 20th of February could be an exciting date, so check back with us then to see what Sony has in store for us!

Purported Sony NEX-3N image leaks showing electronic zoom control

Purported Sony Nex3N image leaks showing electronic zoom

An image from an anonymous tipster just leaked to Sony Alpha Rumors showing a possible yet-to-be-announced Sony NEX-3N camera. All that can be gleaned from the pic so far is that such a model might exist, and if so, could have an electronic zoom control. All NEX still cameras have manual zooms only, but Sony did announce a pro video model, the NEX-EA50EH, that packs a servo control for the recent SEL18-200PZ 11x and SELP1650 16-50mm servo zoom lenses. The tipster also said that it’ll have the 16-megapixel sensor of the current NEX-F3, which the site pointed out is showing up at a discounted price on Amazon (see coverage) — another possible sign of a new model. We don’t see photo fakery with cameras nearly as often as with smartphones — but it does happen, so we’ll need more than a leaked image before making new camera plans.

Sony NEX-3N Rumored For CP+ Announcement

859418 Sony NEX 3N Rumored For CP+ AnnouncementLast year we reported that Sony could be taking advantage of the CP+ event to show off new NEX and DSLR cameras, and according to the folks at Sony Alpha Rumors, one of the NEX devices that Sony could be unveiled would be the Sony NEX-3N. According to their sources, the Sony NEX-3N will be the successor to the Sony NEX-3, although at this point in time it is unclear as to what sort of features the NEX-3N will come with. In any case with CP+ taking place on the 31st of January, we guess we only have a couple of weeks more before Sony’s offerings are unveiled. In the meantime what are you looking forward to most from Sony? New DSLR cameras or are you more in the market for Sony’s NEX mirrorless camera systems instead?
