NEX-6 on Photokina

[Rawfa]

I know this is a rumor website, but I´ve been reading it for years and it´s right 95% of the time (the guy has good sources):

I looks like Sony will release a camera between the NEX5N and the NEX7 on the next Photokina (next month). It is supposed to have a viewfinder.
Now it´s dreaming time wish list time: 24mp, in body IS (very difficult), higher bitrate on video mode, mic input with audio controls, heat problem under control. And then the usual even better high iso, AF, etc.

I think we'll see:
16mp
no IBIS (unlikely on any NEX)
only two 'navi' dials not three
unlikely to have any additional inputs NEX-7 lacks
EVF like NEX-7
phase detect AF on sensor
firmware supports 'apps' for features like intervalometer and better bracketing.

I cannot see any reason for an in between model, if by NEX standards, the 5n was good and the 7 being very good, I would only hope for a 9! Especially when the NEX goes by odd numbers and not even numbers as well.

Hooray, yet another Sony body... where are the lenses?

where are the lenses?

NEX-5R: 180 degree flip screen (like the NEX-F3) and 16 Megapixel sensor and Wi Fi support

NEX-6: Built in Electronic viewfinder (lower resolution compared to the NEX-7 viewfinder).
Wi Fi support and price between NEX-7 and NEX-5R.

The cameras will be announced in September right before the Photokina show. There will be also
three new NEX lenses, a 16-50mm pancake, a 11-18mm pancake and a fast prime lens.
