We all loved the NEX-7 but the time is close that it will find his way to a well deserved retirement. It stills ell well in US (see Amazon ranking ) but according to our sources the NEX-7 is due for replacement the first half of the next year. We are still working on the rumored specs list and sources are welcome to send me the bits of info they have about the camera so that I can be as accurate as possible the day I will post them on SAR. All I can say for now is that every aspect from EVF, sensor up to the AF will be changed (ok that was to be expected). I haven't heard of any revolutionary new feature yet (like foveon sensor or whatever you imagine). While final prototypes are already out for testing you may share your wish list for the new NEX-7 successor while I am working on the real specs info. Contact me anonymously (with fake mail address) at sonyalpharumors@gmail.com . Or just drop a message on the contact form you see placed here on the right sidebar. Thanks!

IBIS if possible. 4. 1/250 flash sync. I think these can be in the realm of possibilities Vlad Kaigee Taran Milan Besides, Sony is using IS even in it's prime lenses
