UPDATE 2-China state news portal jumps on debut after $219 mln IPO
- Tweet
- Share this
* People.cn shares close 74 pct above IPO price
* Shares trigger multiple stock exchange circuit breakers
* Long way to go to compete effectively with new media firms (Adds quotes, closing share price)
By Melanie Lee
SHANGHAI, April 27 (Reuters) - China's People.cn Co Ltd finished 74 percent higher on its first day of trading in Shanghai after a $219 million IPO as investors flocked to the state-backed news portal, giving it a bigger market value than the New York Times.
Demand for People.cn shares were so high that the stock was suspended for most of the afternoon, after triggering multiple stock exchange circuit breakers.
"Investors are scrambling for People.cn due to its scarcity. As long as you're a Chinese person, you would know the company," said Liu Guanwu, a media IPO analyst with Beijing-based consultancy Analysys International.
At its Friday closing price of 34.72 yuan, 73.6 percent higher than the initial public offering price of 20 yuan, People.cn was worth 9.6 billion yuan ($1.5 billion), more than New York Times, which has a market capitalization of $951 million.
The stock opened at 31.01 yuan and was temporarily suspended when it triggered a stock exchange circuit breaker after rising 10 percent from its opening price. It was suspended again till the last five minutes of the trading day, after triggering another stock exchange circuit breaker when more than 80 percent of the stock changed hands.
"Institutional investors I have spoken to seem rather interested in this stock primarily because it's a government entity," said Chen Yi, an equity analyst with Xiangcai Securities in Shanghai.
"From the look of things, retail investors seem to have also followed suit today," Chen said.
The Shanghai Composite Index closed 0.35 percent lower at 2,396.3 points.
Beijing has actively encouraged its state-owned news media organizations to list in the domestic market in order to secure capital to improve services and extend Beijing's control in the free-wheeling Internet sector.
Xinhuanet, the Internet portal of state news agency Xinhua, is also set to raise 1 billion yuan in Shanghai, but like People.cn, it will have to compete hard for advertising dollars with new media Internet darlings Sina Corp and Sohu.com Inc.
Analysts said the positioning of People.cn and Xinhuanet is different from that of Sina or Sohu because state-backed media focuses on political news, while Sina and Sohu are more entertainment focused.
Moreover, Sina and Sohu are not technically news organizations and their websites work more like news aggregators with some original content available. However, People.cn and Xinhuanet hire reporters and analysts to conduct interviews and generate content.
The challenge for these state-backed media firms would be to get transformed into more commercial entities and to draw eyeballs and advertising dollars.
In 2010, China's Ministry of Finance was People.cn's biggest customer, accounting for 22.2 percent of its revenue.
People.cn raised 1.38 billion yuan in its initial public offering, more than twice its target, and is one of the first state-controlled media groups to list. It sold 69.1 million shares near the bottom of its indicative range of 20.0-22.50 yuan.
People.cn had said it was aiming to raise about 527 million yuan for working capital and to fund expansion.
In February, China Xinhua News Network Corp (CNC), the TV unit of state-run Xinhua News Agency, debuted in Hong Kong through a back-door listing initiated via a HK$700 million share-swap of a listed firm previously known as Tsun Yip Holdings Ltd.
CNC Holdings closed at HK$0.90 on Friday, down 32 percent from the close of its first trading day as CNC Holdings on Feb 8. ($1 = 6.3060 Chinese yuan) (Additional reporting by Clement Tan in HONG KONG; Editing by Kazunori Takada)

Arizona Education Savings
Niehaus v. Huppenthal
Arizona Education Savings
IJ client Andrea Robertson and her daughter, Lexie. |
Once again in Arizona, the educational establishment has filed a lawsuit, Niehaus v. Huppenthal, to limit the educational options of parents—this time the parents of special needs children. The Arizona School Boards Association filed a lawsuit seeking to block the nation's first publicly funded education savings account program, a program that awards qualified parents of children with disabilities Empowerment Scholarships that can be used to pay for a wide variety of educational expenses, including tutoring, home school curriculum, private school tuition and textbooks. The program would not only expand educational options for students with special needs, it would also save taxpayers money.
Thankfully for the parents, the Arizona School Boards Association's legal claim is baseless, relying on a 2009 Arizona Supreme Court decision (Cain v. Horne), which struck down programs for children with disabilities and children in foster care because the program gave parents options only in private schools. But that is not the case with the Arizona Empowerment Scholarship Account program, which offers a wide array of educational options for parents. Parents may spend the funds for a variety of educational services, including tuition to public community colleges and universities, private tutoring, private therapies, home education, as well as private school tuition. And, as with all constitutional school choice programs, parents—and not the government—decide the best educational setting for their child.
The Institute for Justice, the nation's leading legal advocate for school choice, has intervened in the case on behalf of three parents and their children in order to defend the Empowerment Account program from this legal attack by the School Boards Association. The Institute will demonstrate that the Empowerment Scholarship Account program complies with the Arizona Supreme Court's decision in Cain v. Hornebecause it gives parents direct control over their child's education funds and it gives parents a wide range of choices of where to spend those funds when tailoring their child's educational program to their child's unique educational needs.

Certificate of Excellence in Holistic Nutrition Specialist
200 Hours | 11.75 Credits
Thomas Edison said, "The doctor of the future will no longer treat the human body with drugs, but rather will cure and prevent disease with nutrition."

text: | Naming winter stormsFebruary 19, 2013 - Jennifer BrookensBeing a self-professed weather geek, The Weather Channel used to be one of my most-watched channels. Not anymore... The past few years, it's gone off track with "Coast Guard Alaska," and all these other shows that basically are on and in the way when we're actually having a severe weather event, and we need to know what's going on. And now, to rack up even more sensationalism, they've started naming winter storms like the weather service names hurricanes. A press release from The Weather Channel states: "During the upcoming 2012-13 winter season The Weather Channel will name noteworthy winter storms. Our goal is to better communicate the threat and the timing of the significant impacts that accompany these events ... Naming winter storms will raise the awareness of the public, which will lead to more pro-active efforts to plan ahead, resulting in less impact and inconvenience overall." But most people that I've talked to agree it's stupid, and I have to agree. The National Weather Service has already distanced themselves from the Weather Channel names, and I wonder if this season of "named storms" is going to be like New Coke. When they talked about "Nemo" I'm sure I wasn't the only one picturing the little orange fish from the Disney movie! And they're already referring to the storm expected to hit us at the end of the week as "Q." Really?! So we get to see graphics of a giant Q sitting over the Midwest?! Or will it be the James Bond or Star Trek character?! Beware the Mighty Snowy Q... oh goody. Article CommentsNo comments posted for this article. Post a Comment | in: News, Blogs & Events Web |

12-Year-Old Wetumpka Boy Battles Incurable Disease; Community Offers SupportA 12-year-old Wetumpka boy has been diagnosed with a rare, incurable disease that's meant he's been in and out of the hospital. But his family says after months of prayer, he may have found a match to get a bone marrow transplant in Minnesota. Only 32 children in the United States are born with Faconi Anemia each year. Dawson Parker was one of those children. He's faced many obstacles, and his fight to live is far from over. In the far right corner in this Edgewood Academy classroom sits Dawson Parker. Like any other 12-year-old boy, he loves being outside, flying model airplanes and playing baseball. "We had heavy hearts, because this was a life threatening disease for our son," says Penni Parker, Dawson's mother. Dawson will have to battle this disease for the rest of his life. There is no cure, but this transplant will keep him from getting infections. As for Penni Parker, she's asking the community to consider becoming a bone marrow donor. You never know, you could be saving someone like Dawson. Edgewood Academy and First Baptist Church in Wetumpka are raising money for the Parkers, and are also asking state employees to donate any extra vacation days, so that Penni Parker can keep her job, and stay by her son's side. To find out more about fundraising efforts and Dawson's progress, head to the Facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/LiftingUpDawsonParker?fref=ts If you would like to help the family you can call Edgewood Academy at 334) 567-5102 and ask for Susan Montgomery. This Sunday, First Baptist Church in Wetumpka is hosting a barbecue plate sale and dessert auction for Dawson from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Plates are $14 each. You can also donate Delta Sky Miles to help cover transportation costs. If you would like to do that, send a message to the Facebook Page, Lifting Up Dawson Parker. |

Bryan Campus
On Dec. 1, 2006, The Texas A&M University System Board of Regents authorized
acceptance of a gift of 200 acres on State Highway 47 in Bryan from the City of Bryan for expansion of the
Texas A&M Health Science Center (TAMHSC).
The land will be used to expand the Bryan/College Station-based TAMHSC academic units and administration. From the 200 acres, approximately 150 acres will be used as the TAMHSC campus, and the other 50 acres will be for public/private partnerships that will serve the health science center's mission and constituencies.
The new Bryan campus will enhance the visibility, accessibility and future growth of the TAMHSC for generations to come.

Apparently, the last quarter of 2010 put Android ahead overall.

Apparently, the last quarter of 2010 put Android ahead overall.
Sent from my DROID2 using DroidForums App
Wow....Android outsold IPhone 2 to 1 in Q4! Plus, IPhone is on multiple carriers globally so that's pretty impressive.
The interesting thing is IOS has been basically flat while Symbian and BB have taken huge hits to share, clearly to the benefit of Android. That might seem to indicate that more savvy users are, in fact, choosing Android by a wide margin.
Sent from my Droid using DroidForums App
Android is available in more countries, has ios beat device wise like 70 to 3, and comes at far cheaper prices than iphone from a global perspective. i think this just indicates that people are buying more toyotas than porsches....doesn't really mean the porsche is a crappy product. and clearly the toyota is an awesome product as well.
analyses like this are inherently skewed, because there's no level playing ground and never will be in the case of android vs ios.
Google Interview Q&A
Apple CEO, Verizon COO
"In a year, Android's market share has grown from 8.4% to 32.5%."
Wow, that's some serious growth there. It will be interesting to see if Apple does anything interesting with iPhone 5 or if it will just be a minor spec bump.
Google Interview Q&A
Apple CEO, Verizon COO
I should have dumped all my money and entire life savings in Google stock before Android got hot....

Google Interview Q&A
Apple CEO, Verizon COO
LOL, same could be said for Apple....Both stocks have been priced to perfection for years with few opportunities to get in at a good price.
I was afraid of Apple because of competition for the IPhone and an expectation the market overestimates the smartphone growth (which I'm wrong on, to this point), but then the IPad does ridiculous sales (still scratching my head there, didn't really expect them to be much more than a novelty).
I feel like there's less downside risk to Google and VZW, but nevertheless both are priced to perfection. And if the IPhone and/or LTE disappoints (with pretty lofty expectations priced in) on VZW the stock will take a bath.

These photographs are part of an ongoing exploration utilizing large steel ship hulls as the central subject matter in the study of manmade materials and the impact of natural forces upon them. As an architect, these explorations become very important to Bielaska in attaining a deeper understanding of the nature of materials. They are also important exercises for him as a visual designer in the evolution of his visual perception that serves his daily pursuit of spatial and form composition.

The exterior of Matt Banks' '66 Mustang fastback appears stock except for the wheels. Painted in factory Signal Flare Red, there are no LeMans stripes, scoops, or spoilers. Likewise, the original Parchment Pony interior, code F6, also looks factory original. However, behind the authentic simulated wood steering wheel is a JME billet aluminum gauge cluster fitted with six AutoMeter Ultra Lite gauges, including a tachometer.
Banks' goal with his build was to avoid drawing attention to the modifications. At a glance, his Mustang appears mostly stock. But underneath the sheetmetal is a 550-horsepower Roush 427-R engine, TKO five-speed, Currie 9-inch rearend, and many other modern upgrades to shrink time and distance in the spirit of the original pony.
The build is totally reversible. Banks would not tolerate cutting the chassis or body. This way, he can return to stock if so desired.
An anesthesiologist today, Banks has owned his '66 Mustang for 32 years. In 1979, he was two weeks away from his 14th birthday when he found the "fairly rust-free" fastback sitting in a field near Houston. The price was $1,100. Powered by its factory two-barrel 289 and four-speed, the fastback bore the marks of the hot rodder, typical of '60s Mustangs of that time. Banks recalls that the car had "headers, wide tires on the back, and a double-pumper Holley."
Lucky for Banks, his grandfather built race cars. The two of them swapped out the old 289 for a healthier 302. While the teenager drove his first set of wheels, he helped his grandfather rebuild the 289, but not to stock specifications. Banks recalls a thumping solid-lifter cam, a premium-burning 10:1 compression ratio, and rotating masses carefully balanced and blueprinted.
"I ran that 289 for two years in high school," Banks recalls. "Then, during my senior year, I stored the car in a barn up in Waelder, Texas, where my parents had some property."
In the back of his mind, Banks harbored a dream build. But at that moment, he needed reliable transportation to college so he bought a new pickup. He also followed his grandfather's advice: "He told me, 'This is your first car. Don't ever sell it.'"
So, unlike so many other teenagers of the 1970s, Banks kept his first car.
Later, during medical school, Banks retrieved the fastback. Established with a family and a medical practice, the young doctor was finally ready to put his first car back on the road.
Just two miles away from his home, Banks discovered the shop of enthusiast Virgil Wood in Rockwall, Texas. Wood calls his business CARS, for Classic Auto Restoration Services. Banks did not want to simply drop off his Mustang at CARS and become a "check-writer." Instead, he helped restore the Mustang with Virgil, directing the build and participating in the actual work. The two became good friends.
Banks said, "I would come up with all these crazy ideas. I wanted power rack-and-pinion steering, so I'd research what part I wanted, buy it, bring it to the shop, we'd read the instructions, and install it."
Banks' overall goal was over 500 horsepower with air conditioning, power steering, and power brakes. His Mustang would cruise the streets in comfort, but still hold its own on the dragstrip and around a road course.
The 427-R crate engine from Roush Performance exceeded the 500 horsepower needed for speed. It's not the modular engine from the late-model Roush 427-R Mustang. Instead, the Roush crate engine is an old-school 351 Windsor, bored and stroked utilizing a Dart four-bolt main iron block, aluminum heads, and a 750-cfm Holley double-pumper. Unlike the modular V-8s, this engine fits the '66 Mustang engine bay without cutting or modifying the shock towers.
Banks researched literally "every part" for his fastback. For example, he talked to Roush technicians to determine the ideal rpm for the engine when cruising at 70 mph. The answer was 2,000. After measuring the circumference of the BF Goodrich 245/45/ZR17 tires, Banks calculated that a set of 3.70 gears would yield 2,100 rpm at 70 mph with the Tremec TKO 600 in fifth gear.
A Pro 5 shifter mixes the gears in the Tremec TKO 600 five-speed. Needless to say, the 427-R delivers enough power to "get rubber" in all five gears.
A key issue was the steering. Banks recalls, "The stock steering had a lot of play. Hit a bump and the car would want to go left or right." The solution was Total Control's rack-and-pinion steering. Per procedure, Banks did the research, then he and Virgil installed the part.
With 535 ft-lb of torque, Banks worried about twisting the Mustang's unit body. For added strength, he used a trick his grandfather taught him by welding 1/8-inch plates to each side of the framerails, front and rear, along with subframe connectors.
Banks upgraded the front suspension with Total Control upper and lower tubular control arms and VariShock QuickSet 2 double-adjustable coilover shocks. A 11/8-inch front sway bar with polyurethane bushings helps minimize body roll. The rear suspension features the old hot rodder's trick of 4-1/2 leaf springs with a one-inch drop to reduce wheel hop. This setup supports a Currie 9-inch rear end.
The 17-inch five-spoke Intro Speedstar wheels are obviously custom. From a distance, the front fender badges resemble the old 289 High Performance emblems. However, a close look reveals the Banks/Wood custom touch of "427" inside the crossed flags and silver V.
Because Banks wanted FM without ditching his old AM radio, Antique Automobile Radio converted his original unit to AM/FM with an iPod/iPhone connection.
Although the dream build is pretty much done, Banks stays on top of new developments. He had planned to install a set of Shelby under-ride traction bars, an old trick from the 1960s. Before installation, Total Control came out with a four-link for the rear of early Mustangs. He has decided to install this system instead.
Chances are Matt Banks will continue to modify his '66 fastback. He just won't draw attention to the changes. MM
The 427-R crate engine from Roush Performance exceeded the 500 horsepower needed for speed. It's not the modular engine from the late-model Roush 427-R Mustang.

How can I get an Internet connection from Columbia University Medical Center student housing?
Please follow the instructions found on our Student Residential Network page.
What is Bradford Campus Manager?
Bradford Campus Manager is a tool that is used to provide fast registration for wired connectivity on campus. It is currently active at Bard Hall housing, Georgian 5th floor, 154 Haven and Towers I, II and III for student computers that plug into the wired network at any of these locations. All three Towers also use Bradford for wireless access, though computers must still first be properly configured to connect to wireless.
Registration involves submitting an online form and running a small, non-permanent program to quickly scan the computer for basic security requirements: current operating system updates and current, working antivirus and antispyware programs. Please see the Bradford Use and Bradford Steps page as well as the FAQs below for more information.
Who should register via Bradford Campus Manager?
Any student may register via Bradford. Faculty and staff who work in a Bradford-managed location can use it as well; the Bradford registration form will automatically appear when a new computer plugs into the wired network at these locations and opens a web browser.
What can I do before I arrive on campus?
What should I do if I get an error message from Bradford?
Read the message carefully. You will see a results page that will tell you specifically why the registration failed or if there are other types of errors. If registration failed for your computer due to it not having required security programs installed or updated, you will be able to go to web sites such as Windows Update and the Columbia licensed version of Symantec to be able to download and install them; other sites will not be available until you have successfully registered. After bringing your computer up to security requirements, you will be able to complete registration and connect.
If you still cannot register or don't understand the error, please call 5-Help (212-305-4357) while at your computer if possible and give us the specific error message you see in your web browser.
Why is a scan required?
Much of the malware out there today attempts to steal personal information (banking details, credit card numbers, passwords, etc.). The updates we require will help your computer stay reasonably protected during your stay here and thus will allow all students the use of a much more secured shared resource - the campus network.
What happens if my computer fails the scan?
If you are on campus and it fails a Bradford Campus Manager scan, your computer will be quarantined (not allowed to access the network). If your computer is placed in quarantine, you will be provided with a web page that will allow you to download the needed software updates to meet campus security requirements and pass the scan. Once you have passed, your computer can then connect to the campus network and the Internet.
If you are not yet on campus, you will see a results page advising you which programs should be updated and/or installed. These must be done before you will be able to connect your computer to the campus network. Your computer will not be quarantined unless you are directly plugged into the network at CUMC.
What happens when my computer is connected at a Bradford-managed location?
What kinds of additional devices can I use on the CUMC network?
CUMC cannot allow routers or wireless access points on the network in part due to security issues. VoIP (voice over IP) is also not allowed on the network. Gaming devices can be registered by reading the instructions and submitting complete information on the Register Your Console form from any computer.
Students are allowed to purchase dsl or high speed cable connections in their rooms for personal use, please contact the Student Housing Office and an Internet service provider if you would like to arrange for this.
Free high speed network access is a privilege given to CUMC students for academic use. The network is shared by CUMC offices and New York Presbyterian Hospital. Due to it being shared with NYPH, the network must also adhere to stringent HIPAA regulations. Our highest priority is that the network be kept secure and available for all to use.
How can I get my IP (network) address?
Please follow the steps on the Student Residential Network page to register your computer for an IP address. Student computers are set for dynamic (changing) IP addresses, which allow for connection at all CUMC campus network locations and continued connectivity if the network's configuration changes. Anyone requiring a static IP address must have specific academic reasons for this, please contact 5-Help with specific information or questions if needed.
Who assigns the IP addresses?
The group that manages the network for the entire CUMC and NYPH campus, CORE Resources, assigns the IP addresses. Please remember that if you have any issues or questions regarding the campus network you must first contact us at extension 5-Help, option 5 or come to the CUMC IT Service Desk.
How long does it take to get my IP address?
Wired access and a dynamic IP address are available within 2 hours of successfully registering via the Bradford form. You must pass the registration - including receiving a message that the registration was successful - in order to receive a (dynamic) IP address.
Can I choose an IP Address?
No, you may not choose your own IP address; see the Network Addresses and Naming policies page for details. Picking an IP Address has the potential to cause more harm than good. CORE considers this to be stealing network resources and will block your computer on the network. A Security Incident Report will be created and your computer will be blocked. A decision will then be made as to whether your connection can be reactivated or if further action will be taken against you, in concert with your academic dean.
You must be sure to follow the instructions to register your computer for use on the CUMC network. Because CUMC shares the network with New York Presbyterian Hospital and must comply with HIPAA regulations, we must have current contact information for all systems that are on the campus network.
Should I configure a manual IP address?
Students must not configure a manual IP address on their computers. A dynamic (not manual) address is generally easier to use and allows for roaming if you have a laptop. Configuring a manual address on your computer without prior approval from the CUMC IT Service Desk and CORE Resources can cause a loss of connectivity on properly registered computers, and result in disciplinary action including the blocking of your system(s).
What is my network card's hardware address (aka Physical, Ethernet or MAC address) and how is it used to register my computer?
All computers, regardless of their operating system, must be registered in order to be given access to the CUMC network. The Bradford registration form will automatically find your computer's hardware address and register it when scanning.
If you need to find the address for your network interface card it can be looked up via the computer's operating system. Select the link for your computer's operating system below for step by step instructions:
What if I replace my computer or its network card?
Please use the online form to re-register. Your computer is recognized on the campus network by a Hardware Address that is unique to every network card, so replacing this requires that it be registered again.
Do I need to buy anything to connect to the network?
Almost all computers have a built in network interface card. If your computer has network card, you are all set. You will also need an Ethernet patch cable (also known as Cat-5 or Category-5 cable) if one did not come with the computer; these can be purchased at any store that sells computer equipment. A network cable is thicker than a phone cord and has connectors on the end that look similar to phone connectors but are slightly bigger.
Who can I talk to if the network connection in my room isn't working?
If you have already registered your computer but can not get a network connection via the data port in your dorm or apartment, please call the CUMC IT Service Desk at extension 5-Help (212-305-4357). It is best if you are at your computer in your room when you call so the technicians can accurately troubleshoot the problem.
Where can I find the jack number in my room?
You can typically find the jack number written below the jack or data port.
Who can help me set up my computer connection from CUMC student housing?
If you need initial set up and registration for a network connection, please see our Student Residential Network page for easy, detailed instructions.
Technicians can answer any other questions you may have about the connection, please call us at (212) 305-Help, or come by the CUMC IT Service Desk on the 2nd floor of the library.
Who can I speak to if the connection in the dorms is down?
Call the Service Desk at extension 5-Help (212-305-4357).
How can I transfer files over the network?
Keep in mind that there is a 40MB limit on your Cunix space.

Google considered a move to OpenSolaris? All that glitters is not Chrome
CORRECTION at 6:30 a.m. PDT September 2: This blog inadvertently had linked to old information about Google's work with OpenSolaris. However, having discovered the mistake, the author realizes how salient the content is to Google's announcement Monday of its new browser.
Two years ago, Computerworld reported that Google was actively testing Sun Microsystems' OpenSolaris Unix distribution as a possible adjunct operating system to be used internally with its existing modified Linux distribution. While I'm sure there continues to be active experimentation at Google around OpenSolaris, I suspect any move away from Linux remains highly unlikely, … Read more

To provide photographers with a broader perspective about mobiles, lenses and cameras, here are links to articles, reviews, and analyses of photographic equipment produced by DxOMark, renown websites, magazines or blogs.
As the first zoom offered for the new full frame A7r and A7 the mid-range moderate speed Zeiss Vario-Tessar T* 24-70mm f4 is a key lens for Sony. Read on to find out how well it performs on the 36-Mpix Sony A7R. |
Continuing our series of lens recommendations for new camera models, we've had the opportunity to assess the new entry-level Sony A3000 - the first of a new DSLR form-factor from the firm to adopt the mirrorless E-mount. We've assessed and collated data on a sizeable collection of Sony and third-party prime and zoom models to assess image quality. Read onto find out which of these models perform best when paired with the new camera. |
The highly configurable RED Epic Dragon is the latest version of the firm's original Epic-M Digital Still and Motion Camera (DSMC). Although we are more used to analyzing still cameras at DxOMark, we've had a unique opportunity to assess RAW output from a prototype using all of our usual industry standard tests. As the results were extraordinary, we thought we would share the findings. Read on to find out how this high-performance sensor performs. |
Leica's re-imagined S medium format camera adopts the 30 x 45mm 37.5-Mpix CCD of the original Leica S2 but adds improved image processing, built-in GPS and a number of other refinements. Read on to find out how well the new camera performs. |
The Zeiss Sonnar T* FE 35mm f2.8 is a compact moderate wide-angle lens designed for the full-frame mirrorless Sony Alpha A7 and A7R. But with only a moderate-speed f2.8 maximum aperture and an $800 price tag, optical performance has to be first rate. Read on to find out if that's the case. |
Debuted alongside the Sony Alpha A7 and A7R, the Sonnar T* FE 55mm f1.8 may sound rather conventional and unexciting on paper, but with a Zeiss badge and at close to $1,000, is it capable of offering extraordinary image quality? Read on to find out. |
Nikon's retro styled Df harks back to the days film externally, but the metal shell with its plethora of dials and buttons conceals a state-of-the-art 16-Mpix CMOS sensor intended for the worst imaginable lighting conditions. Read on to find out how this new addition to the range performs. |
As the lower pixel count of the two full-frame A series mirrorless models from the firm the Sony A7 has been somewhat overshadowed by its pricier sibling. But with a less demanding 24-Mpix sensor and on-chip phase detection AF, the A7 sounds promising for legacy glass as well as offering faster focusing with the existing E and new FE mount lenses. Read on to find out how this intriguing new model performs. |
The Sony Alpha 7R is the most expensive of the two full-frame Alpha 7 mirrorless models announced earlier in the month. Externally the two share the same body and much of the same feature set, but, where the A7 adopts a 24-Mpix sensor with on-chip PD-AF capability, the Alpha 7R has a 36-Mpix CMOS sensor without an optical low pass filter for optimal image sharpness. Read on to see how well the sensor in this new model performs. |
To website |
If there's one thing that you can say about Sony's digital camera business, it's that they've experimented with many different concepts. From SLRs with dual autofocus systems and Translucent Mirror Technologyto its NEX mirrorless line-up, Sony has gone down virtually every avenue in digital imaging. Their latest products - the Alpha 7 and Alpha 7R - may be the most exciting products to come out of the Sony labs in some time. The Company has managed to create full-frame cameras which are about the same size as the Olympus OM-D E-M1. In other words, much smaller than any other full-frame interchangeable lens camera.

comparative test of Sony A7R + Zeiss Otus 1.4/55
I just purchased the Zeiss Otus 1.4/55 together with a Sony A7R 36 Mpixels full frame in order to get the best of the two.
Results are outstanding, and fulfill my expectations in terms of resolution for "immersive panoramas". I made test comparisons versus my Canon 5D markII with the EF 2.8/24-70 L and the EF 1.4/50. Results are available at: http://www.motherearthimpressions.com/-/galleries/blog/welcome-otus Reply |

Sony A7R
More than a month ago you said: "Sorry but the first test will be only for Sony FE lenses. Then, if we have time we will add Classic Alpha Full Frame lenses." When are you going to test them? It's hard to pick having only 2 lenses tested on Sony A7R. There many lenses to choose from like Sonar 24 f1.8, Distagon 24 f2, Sony 35 f1.8 or 135 f2.8, etc. Reply | Read all replies for this comment |

Re: Sony A7R
Hi Mangoja,
Thank you for coming back to us. We're currently performing tests on the zoom FE (24-70mm f/4 and the kit). We have other brands' new lenses to measure at the moment, so new results should be available in Spring. Reply |

Mix and Match lens testing
I know this is somewhat unrealistic to ask, but do you think the DxOMark team at any point will test this camera with different lens manufacturers (Canon, Nikon, Zeiss) with an adapter (say the metabones system)? Right now we can kind of gauge Nikon glass with the D800, but since the A7R's sensor rating is such an increase over any of Canon's products--we only get a general idea of how it would perform. I think the real plus of this camera is not the overall size of it, but the lack of restriction we now have taking the best lenses from the other major players. Just curious, how they combine with the A7R. Thanks!

A7R - Canon, Nikon, Olympus, Sigma, Tamron test results
I have had my A7R for 3 weeks and used for tests and real world shooting, inc. night photography. Its not an action, street or holy place camera, too slow and noisy, but excels for landscapes / city scapes-love the DR, colour, resolution and handling. Big problem, which may be a rubbish adapter - Canon 15mm feye, Samyang 14 and Canon 17-40 very, very poor left hand edge, but right side fine. Any lenses 24mm plus fine. Exceptionally good results with Canon 40mm, 50mm F1.8II, Samyang 35mm, Canon 24-105L, Canon 70-200L IS, Canon 70-300IS, Tamron 70-200 F2.8 (non-VC), Nikkor 55-200 DX (full frame!), Nikkor 10-24 (APC mode only). All Nikon Dx lenses work fine in APC mode. Sigma 150-500 works with good IQ and OS, no AF. In fact, only AF on Canon 40mm and 70-200L, fails or rubbish in the rest. Not a full replacement for my 5D mkII or Nikon D7100, but for slow, tripod based photography 24mm + is amazingly good. Hope to get better ultra wide angle results in the future with new adapter, but suspect may need to wait for Sony FE. Oh, little Olympus 28mm f3.5 works, but not especially sharp but nice and even across the frame. Would like to see Voitlander wide angle results, anyone? Or experience with Canon 17-40mm?

battery life is too short
Battery life is too low...Sony reduced the size of camera. In the reduced size body Battery size had to be small too..It seems that it can not beat DSLRs in this relam becase 1) DSLRs work on optical viewfinders, which saves power, 2) They have larger body to accomdate larger battery. I wish that sony gives away a spare battery in order to compete others

DXOMark asserts, A7r as only ONE OF THE BEST in image quality which perfectly makes sense. Nikon fanboys may not need panic over non-existent matters. QUoted from DXOMark's conclusion: "Compared to the 36-Mpix Nikon D800 models, the results are very similar indeed, implying the new Sony A7R uses the same (Sony made) sensor. The differences in individual metrics are close enough to be within our tolerances for testing, however, it maybe also be down to the differences in the filters or the imaging chain in more general terms. In real world use, the variance in low-light scores is negligible. As for assessing image sharpness, we'll be adding lens tests with the Sony in the near future." Reply |

Highest ever full-frame image quality?
The Sony Alpha 7R seem fantastic, but image quality is not the same thing as sensor performance, The flange distance is very short and we can not be sure of that the images will be sharp in the corners or even on the sides. lJust look at Sony NEX!

Re: Highest ever full-frame image quality?
This issue is only with RF lenses and specific ones at that: third party RF symmetrical ultra wides. In addition it was mainly noted on the nex 7 not other models. To imply it's a critical issue - or greater than that of any FF sensor is misleading .
However this sensor has micro lenses angled at the edges to minimize this effect. Perhaps indicating new sony UWAs in the future. Reply |

a7r shutter type?
I think I read this camera has a 'digital' shutter? I have the rx1r with a leaf shutter and I can sync it up to 1/2000 second! What does the a7r have and what is the sync speed?

a7r shutter?
What exactly is a 'digital' shutter? I have the Sony DSC RX1r with a leaf shutter and it's fantastic, even in the studio. I can sink lights up to 1/2000th of a second. What does this camera have and what are the sync speeds, etc.

Thanks for your interest in DxOMark. The Sony A7R is our first priority, so results should be available in few weeks maybe even less :) Best regards, The DxOMark team Reply |
