Sony rumors: E-mount 4K camcorder leaked. ILCE-QX1 leaked too!

Back to some Sony rumors!

ILCE-QX1:
Tomorrow (Sept. 3) at 16:30 Berlin time Sony will announce the new ILCE-QX1 smartphone mount module. It likely has the current A6000 24 megapixel APS-C sensor and will cost 300 Euro (450 Euro with the 16-50mm zoom lens). Don’t know if such a “thing” will sell or not. But Chapeau to Sony for being that innovative!

FS700II:
Filmaker.cn leaked the first image of the $10,000 E-mount 4K FS700II camcorder.

A part of those two new cameras Sony/Zeiss will announce plenty of E-mount lenses at Photokina:

16-35mm f/4.0 Zeiss
28-135mm powerzoom
85mm FE prime Zeiss (available 2015)
35mm f/2.0 Loxia
50mm f/2.0 Loxia
