Sony NEX-EA50 - Cold Hard Facts & Rumor Mill
Concerns, Rumors, Peanut Gallery: - If it's same/similar sensor to NEX5n, it's probably going to lack the low light capability of the FS100 or 700. - If it encodes/scales similar to NEX5n & VG20, it's going have less moire and aliasing than 5D2 and 7D, but probably more than FS100/700. - The Sony HXR-FMU128 only lists up to 24mbps recording. I have no first hand knowledge of the recorder, but does this mean you should use the other 3 options for highest recording quality? Or will 28mbps be possible on the FMU128? - I assume LCD is comparable to FS100/700 offering, but placed in a rational location finally. (Confirmed, same LCD, similar EVF) - The lens hood is gunna be a pain in the ass with a variND filter, so it looks like that will be removed readily. - Price is preliminary around £2700-3000, or $3350 USD. With the 18-200. So far, US market is being charged a bit of a premium, at $4500!
Obligatory marketing video with some nasty frame-blending...
