We can clearly see that the recently announced Sony A7R II camera showing more details in the image compared to the Nikon D810 DSLR camera.
Take a look at the image below and see the difference
It’s no doubt the Sony A7R II is better than Nikon D810. We can clearly see more details and better color output in the Sony image captured at 12800 ISO.
A quick Overview of Specification
Nikon D810 features traditional Fullframe CMOS sensor of 36 Megapixels resolution and on the other hand the Sony A7R II features Hybrid CMOS AF sensor with 399 Phase AF points and a resolution of 42 Megapixels.
Despite of having more resolution camera features ISO range of 50-102400, its may be due to the presence of back-illuminated structure inside the sensor but the Nikon D810 is limited to 32-51200 only.

According to the latest rumors floating over the web, Sony may announce new products soon, the to be announced list includes.
1. Sony A7S
2. Sony A7000
3. Sony a99II
4. Sony FE 24-70mm GM Lens for FE mount fullframe camera
6. Zeiss Loxia Wide-angle lens for FE mount fullframe camera
7. Sony A-mount lenses
The most confirmed camera in the list is Sony A7000, since the camera was expected to arrive back on May 2015 but due to some sensor heating issues while recording the 4K movies delayed the announcement of the camera. We strongly hope the Sony will sure announce Sony A7000 camera on Sep 2015.
According to a leaked document via wikileaks Sony was rumored to announce new A7 series in 2015, we have already seen Sony A7II and A7R II and the only left camera is Sony A7S.
Almost 3 years passed away after the announcement of Sony A99 II camera but no update arrive till now, we expect sony will soon announce A99 II with a completely new sensor and a option to record 4K videos.
The big question is why Sony isn’t’ putting any attention towards the development of its fullframe compact camera line-up – “the RX series”. The first RX series camera was announced on Sep 12, 2012 and after less than year of gap Sony announced it’s new RX1R camera on June 2013 having same core specification as of Sony RX1 camera. The only major difference between the both was the absence of low-pass filter inside Sony RX1R camera.
It’s almost 2 years, 2 months, and 17 days passed after the announcement of RX1R series camera and no update arrived till now. The worst part of the game is Sony even didn’t announced any single firmware update of Sony RX1 or RX1R.
Sony RX1 camera user Benjamin Gutheil from Germany added a petition for a Sony RX1 / RX1R firmware update on change.org.
Sony A6000 rumored specification surfaced over the web, from the image we don’t believe the it is real. The camera rumored specification is below…
Take a look at the rumored specification of the camera
24.3 MP sensor (different from A6000)

Mag. alloy body
1/32000 electronic shutter
4K Video (10 min limit)
No IBIS
No weather seal
Announcement in 2-3 weeks
Body only price is expected around 900 USD.
From the specification it’s look like a overpriced camera with low-quality specification.
Let’s talk about some facts…
Take a look at the screen snapshot below
As from the document you can clearly see the Sony A6000 successor was planned to announced on Q1 of 2015, but it is was delayed due to some technical problems (may be overheating issue while recording 4K). We actually don’t have any bulletproof rumor related to A7000 or A6100 yet, but I do expect the camera will arrive on September 2015 or in CES 2016.
According to the latest rumors surfaced over the web the upcoming Sony A7S II camera will feature upgraded body design similar to Canon XC10 camera. The Canon XC10 camera design is completely unique and new.
We are almost confirmed that Sony is seriously working on next generation of Sony A7S II camera and according to the article published yesterday [see here] Sony will put it’s all concentration in worldwide fullframe mirrorless market, according to the Sony representatives ” Our goal this year is to become the leader in this market for the first time.”
The Canon XC10 was announced back on April 8th, 2015. The camera features a smaller 1 inch sensor and it’s a hybrid camera dedicated for still as well as video shooters. The Sensor inside the XC10 camera is designed ad developed by Canon itself, however if we look at the pric tag it’s look bit overpriced compared to current market competition.
Deep discounts on Sony A7 Camera – with 28-70mm lens it will cost you $1498 only at B&H and Amazon | too less compared to XC10 compact camera with 1 inch sensor.
From now and onwards Sony will put it’s all concentration in worldwide fullframe mirrorless market, according to the Sony representatives ” Our goal this year is to become the leader in this market for the first time.” Sony leading the mirrorless section from past five years but they are now in fully prepared to beat down Canon and Nikon global DSLR sales record.
Take a look what Sony representatives said on last monday
Sony will concentrate on full-frame cameras in the future. In the short run, we will target existing full-frame camera users and then attract those who use entry and mid-class models to upgrade their cameras in the long run, raising the popularity of full-frame cameras. To do so, we plan to boost our presence in the professional market such as photo studios and wedding photography. Besides the stagnant growth of the camera market, the entry-class segment of the lens-interchangeable camera market is slowing down drastically.
We held a 59 percent share in the mirror-less camera market last year and have been the top seller of mirror-less cameras for the last five years, but we have never topped the gross lens-interchangeable camera market on a yearly basis. Our goal this year is to become the leader in this market for the first time.
