Amateur Photographer posted an interview made with Toru Katsumoto and Tetsuya Numata from Sony. Here are some interesting info:
- They recognize that many people love the optical viewfinder and this is true especially for full-frame products. But Sony believes the EVF technology is better and the future.
- The very interesting info is that Sony confessed that they didn’t use the 36 million pixels sensor because “we couldn’t do 60p video or produce the same sensitivity levels“. De facto they confirm the Nikon D800 sensor is made by them! They also add: “When the technology improves we can increase the pixels.”
- When asked if there will be a Higher than A99 FF model they answer: “It is a possibility“.
- Sony ddint’ opt for the XQD cards because it “consumes a lot of power“.
- When asked if the RX1 could eventually be redesigned as an interchangeable lens camera they answer again: “It is a possibility“. One more thing about the RX1: Sony has no plan yet to make a RX1 wide angle or telephoto adapter.Quelle. SAR

Schon irgendwie schade, dass einem der Kamerahersteller ein 36MP Modell vorenthält weil er damit Video nicht so gut implementieren kann.
