Sounds like we are soon getting an APS-C E-mount lens…

A German youtuber just posted a video where he says he bought the new Sony A6700 camera because he now has to review “something” that will be announced for this camera soon.

He didn’t mention the brand name but he often reviews both Sigma and Sony gear right before the announcement. My guess (guess and not rumor!) is that Sigma will announce a new APS-C lens in early February. Hope to get some solid info on this soon!

P.S.: Trusted sources told me a Sigma announcement is scheduled for early February!

Small rumor update: Seems like we are really getting a 85mm f/1.4 GM II (and not f/1.2 as we hoped)

Just a quick update on the 85mm GMII lens rumor. As you know I wasn’t sure about the aperture of the new 85GM lens. Now one of my sources is certain that it’s going to have the same f/1.4 aperture of the current 85GM. Other sources also confirmed both the 85GM and ZV-E10II are coming the first half of this year.

To wrap up what we know so far from trusted sources:

  • 85mm f/1.4 GM II coming in Spring
  • ZV-E10II coming this spring
  • New FX camera also coming (not announcement date yet)

Youtuber uploaded 16-25mm and 24-50mm 2.8 G lens videos by mistake

UPDATE: Like I told you previously no trusted sources had confirmed an announcement for today. So we have to wait a bit longer to get the real lens announcement. But here comes an interesting note:

For a short moment a Youtuber uploaded a video with the title naming these two lenses (see screenshot on top):

  • 24-50mm f/2.8 G
  • 16-25mm f/2.8 G

I did hide the name of the channel….we don’t want to get him into any in trouble.

P.S.: What’s 100% confirmed via trusted sources is that Sigma will have an announcement in early February.

Rumors: This week Sony will announce the new 16-25mm f/2.8 and 24-50mm f/2.8 G lenses? And an EXCITING teaser!

Right now a readers sent me a “leak” of two new lenses that are coming soon…possibly even in the next 48 hours:

  • 16-25mm f/2.8 G
  • 24-50mm f/2.8 G

I already have leaked the 24-50mm f/2.8 G lens back in December (see image on top). I still have no image of the 16-25mm G lens. If you have details and leaks to share use this anonymous contact form or contact me at sonyalpharumors@gmail.com

To protect the source I cannot share the “leak” I got today.  But I can share a HUGE teaser!

Two week ago a NEW source sent me info about these two f/2.8 G zooms but also an additional info about a CRAZY WOW product. I didn’t post this on SAR because obviously I don’t like to post those kind of SUPER WOW rumors without at least some shred of rational hope. But if these two lenses will be indeed announced that it’s reasonable enough to believe there is a fair chance that crazy part will become true too! So here is the deal, if these lenses will be announced (possibly this week) than a couple of days after I will share that crazy part of the rumor. And yes, this is a kind of rumor that will make you talk about it the whole year…even A LOT more exciting than the Sony A9III buzz :)

Confirmed: Sony ZV-E10II is coming in Spring time!

Through trusted sources, I can now confirm with certainty that we will get the new ZV-E10II before the summer. I have not yet received an exact announcement date… but I suspect we’ll see the new camera sometime between February and April.

The sources haven’t revealed any details yet, so we can only speculate on the specs. My best guess:

Curiosity: The current ZV-E10 is still the best selling mirrorless camera at Amazon US.

To recap: We should get a new E-mount cine camera first, followed by the new ZV-E10II vlogger camera. But just like last year, we expect more interesting Alpha bodies to be announced after the ZV announcement. See this screenshot of the 2023 announcement from Dpreview:

I don’t have anything solid yet about those Alpha bodies but my guess is that the A7sIV is coming next…some times after the ZV-E10II announcement.

Rumor: New Sigma announcement in very early February!

One trusted source told me that Sigma will have a press event in very early February (likely in the days between Feb 4 and 8). He didn’t share yet what Sigma will announce and I am working to get some info in this.

But I hope that Mr Yamaki will hold on his promise made exactly one year ago that they are now going to focus on announcing more “unique” lenses. After all the past 12 months we had a bunch of exciting lens patents. Now, those patents are by no means final proof that it will make it into mass production. But just for the sake of discussion I will list you those lens specs and you can vote which one you would love to get for real:

Sigma patented the following lenses. Which one would you liek to get?
