Olympus E-PL7 to be announced soon. Likely the only new PEN to come now?

As you know Olympus usually updated the full PEN range in one single announcement (always in late Spring). But according to latest rumors this is not going to happen this year. There will be “only” the new E-PL7 with same E-M10 sensor, 81 AF points and Vari Angle LCD.

There is no other info yet but this sounds more like a small update than a completely new camera.

Sony A7s priced at $1800?

On May 7 Sony will announce the A7s pricing. According to one of our trusted sources the price could be surprisingly low: $1800! That’s about the same price of the Panasonic GH4.

Likely two more Sony announcements on May 7 and May 15.

I know it sounds weird but we heard that there will be two more Sony announcements. On next week on May 7 to unveil the final A7s pricing and the two new Sony FE lenses (28-135mm Powerzoom and 16-35mm Zeiss).

The week after (May 15) Sony will then unveil the RX100M3 whichs specs have been already leaked:

20MP sensor (same as RX100/M2 models)
ISO 125-25600
24-70mm f/1.8-2.8 lens
Built in View finder (SVGA OLED Tru-Finder 1440k dots)
Tiltable screen (180 degrees up)
Record in XAVC S format (Same format of the Sony A7s but with no 4K output option).
Almost same size and weight as the current RX100/M2 models.
I have been told all other specs are the same of the current RX100II model.
Price is said to be around 800-850 Euro in Europe. Should be around $800-850 in USA (US price is my guess)

Busy time at Sony!

 

Full Sony RX100M3 specs!

This is going to be a hell of a compact camera! We just got the specs via SAR and this is what the new camera can do:

Built in View finder (SVGA OLED Tru-Finder 1440k dots)
