Hi there, since yesterday was my birthday, I decided to get a QX-10 as a gift: I was perplexed at first, but now that Sony decided to give us a proper case/adapter, I went for it.
But, the only news I can find is the one saying that it was announced.
Has anybody any guess on when it will be available?

Supposedly end of Jan but don't quote me on it. Only announced for Hong Kong so will have to be an ebay jobbie.

I am looking around as well.

Well, I actually ordered the QX10 just because they announced this case, they better release it in Europe and US too... but hey, I may import it as long as it costs more or less the same...
20/30 euros are fine, 50/60 are NOT.

My QX10 is finally here, and I'm impressed with the overall quality.
But, there is no freaking way of attaching it on the Ultra.
I'm thinking now of getting some double sided tape on a case and attach the included adapter to it and see if it actually works...
I don't want to get a Z case just to cut the edges off (also because my wife has a Z, so it would be handy anyway)...

There is no way your karma is that good. It will detatch and shatter into 3 billion pieces :p

for video you have to connect the qx to pc.
the qx must be power on, if is of it will be only charge.
better if you have installed play memories home so the software will automaticly detect the camera and will open the windows for save foto e video

Cool mod, but I was planning on keeping the adapter as my wife has a Z... Plus everytime I take it out of the pocket every colleague/friend wants to try it out... ;)
I'm surprised there aren't cheap knock offs at this point... o_O

Yeah. I would. But then again, I wouldn't. Your Ultra didn't do anything to me, and it's enough that you rape it in and out the GPe every like 5 hours... XD

LOL, you have some sharp eyes there eh? Yes, i'm currently going back and forth between GPe and stock. I'm like a kid not being used to being away from home, so i have to take a quick trip home to mommy when i miss her :angel: I'm getting used to AOSP again now though, so i'll probably stick with it for now.

I waited to unlock the bootloader just for a thing like this, and now I'm so getting used to stock and am so comfy with it that the sole thought of zeroing all the data to begin from scratch is making me shiver.
I know I'll do it, but now it's not the time yet.
I have my TA backup from .532 ready, and at the moment I don't even feel the need of being rooted, but I know the time will come.

Little update: sick of waiting on Sony to give us a proper release date (they never do), I decided to get my just replaced case, the original clip and some adhesive strips i had lying around.
I simply attached two of them on the clip, attached the clip onto the case, and that's it, solved once and for all.
Every single strip can hold up to 2 kilograms, so I think 4 kilos will be enough for the lens... :)
And as a bonus they are detachable (you have to rotate applying a certain amount of force, or better yet going under it with a sharp object or a credit card etc), so they won't ruin the original clip.
Now when a colleague or a friend asks to try it I'll reply... go get yourself one, you cheap bastard! :D

@leechoonwee there's no point in sharing the pics and not telling us if you actually bought it or not... they seem pics taken from the last CES...
And of course, if you bought it, the link please! :)

I'm sorry about that. I found this on a chinese website but this is not from CES definitely but from Sony in Taiwan. Probably some staff in there already got hold of the stock and took some pictures.

I have already ordered from here

    I swear if it happens I will take the next flight for Bergen to say hello.
    And then I'll smash your Ultra into tiny pieces.
    And then I'll say goodbye and take the next flight home.
    Or maybe not.

    Works as intended. Extremely light, very thin, fits good, locks QX in place very well. NFC works well.

    My only complain has to do with play memories. If you own a QX you know that play memories automatically rotates the orientation in the screen allowing you to take portrait and landscape shots without the need to rotate the phone in your other hand. This is a problem with the cover as rotating the camera also means rotating the phone giving you an awkward view on screen.

    As of now i have not seen an option to disable the auto rotate within play memories.

    I use per app settings to fixed playmemories in landscape at all times.
