The following russian site claims to have the A7000 specs: http://www.fotosklad.ru/catalog/fotoapparat-sony-alpha-a7000-body051398/specifications

 

But I am 99% sure it's fake....

Can't get the site working on mobile, the specs on the screenshot (28MP, no more practical info) can happen, we'll hopefully see the rest. From my side, I am waiting for top quality full-sensor readout 4k video, higher than 100Mbit/sec-8bit. Probably not going to happen:(

That and a video capable auto focus that's not miles behind the A6000 / GH4

 

Whatever happened to that rumored "9 Pro series" from Sony...?  That would seem like the candidate Sony might feel generous enough to enable more than 100Mbit/sec.

 

Personally, I think most of the more annoying shortfalls in the A7 are not due to technical issues, but due to Sony's model strategy for maximum cash extraction - make sure the A series is a few cups short of a set, so it doesn't encroach too far on their professional camcorders.  I remember their trickery very well from the days when Sony held the highest hand, before Apple became big with iPods and iPhones.

 

Personally, I much hope Canon will release an absolutely stunning full frame mirrorless camera at CP, just to force Sony to clean up some of the deeper potholes in their $3000 cameras.

    • AI sez: The CHIPFANCIER CFexpress Type A 4.0 memory card offers 1700MB/s read speeds and is VPG400 certified, making it suitable for 8K video and high-speed shooting. However, some users have reported limitations in frame rates with this card.  Don't know if that applies, but it sounds similar. Any chance on using/getting a different card? The A7 IV has a ridiculous buffer, it shouldn't slow down at all with a good card. 
    • Make sure camera and lens is updated to latest firmware. 
    • ISO 320 is the A7R5's second base ISO setting. You will find at ISO 320 you will get better results than even ISO 200. I normally take a set of shots at 1600, 3200 and 6400 ISO. I am taking 60 light frames and 10 dark frames. I don't do any adjustments to the files before stacking. I really need to get organised and do some bias frames now. Here is pretty much my first successful Milky Way shot from a few months ago. I was combatting a bit of ambient light and quite a lot of cloud but I'm pretty happy with this. It was shot using my Sigma 16-28 f2.8 which is better at astro than I had anticipated, at ISO 1600.
