The new Sony NEX-3n gets leaked in all it’s glory!

This week Sony is going to announce the new Sony NEX-3n. And those are the “naked” pictures of the camera seen from all his sides. A part of that new Powerzoom controller there will be no big news on the camera. It has the same sensor as the NEX-F3.
Those of you waiting for some NEX-7 successor and E-mount lens news will have to wait just a tiny bit more (coming in April).

Sony NEX-3n announcement next week. And Also Panasonic to announce new MFT products soon?

There is almost no more doubt that Sony will announce the new NEX-3n next week. The NEX-7 successor will follow in late Spring-early Summer. But we just heard that also Panasonic may have an announcement very soon! Not sure yet if they will introduce the new GF or G or both at the same time. If you are waiting for some Olympus news than guys you may have to wait a lot! The E-P2 and the first f/2.8 constant zoom may come in June only.

Overall it looks like Sony, Panasonic, Fuji and Olympus will wait for the second half of the year to announce the more “heavy” stuff. SO let’s hope at leats that Samsung FF March release rumor wasn’t just a false hope!

 

 

Pentax Q10 gets DxOmarked and is on par with the Panasonic GF5!

 

The likely most “exotic” of all mirrorless and interchangeable lens cameras just got DxOamrked (Click here). And the sensor performance is actually surprising! The Q10 matches the quality of the 12 Megapixel Micro Four Thirds cameras! That0s a huge surprise considering the big sensor size difference. Chapeau Pentax! The once again proved that they are capable of squeezing out all the quality they can from their (Sony) sensors.

P.S.: Good for MFT that their latest generation sensors marked a huge leap forward. Otherwise this would be very embarrassing for them :)
