January ranking at Mapcamera: Sony A7cII still the best selling camera!

Mapcamera released the official sales date for the month of January:

Top 10 camera sales:

  1. Sony α7C II body
  2. Nikon Z 8
  3. Canon EOS R6 Mark II Body
  4. Fuji X-T5
  5. Sony A9III
  6. Nikon ZF
  7. OM-1
  8. Leica M11-P
  9. Leica Q3
  10. DJI Osmo 3

My take on that ranking:

  • It’s a long time the A7cII is the best selling camera in Japan
  • Sony A9III made it into the top 5 but I don’t think it will stay inside the top 10 of the month of February (too much of an expensive niche camera).
  • I am surprised to see two expensive Leica camera inside the top 10
  • Dji breaks into the top 10 and my guts tell em this si just the beginning for Dji…

Angelbird will soon announce a new Type A card!

Yesterday I reported that Angelbird officially discontinued their famous 1TB card. Two of my readers contacted Angelbird and got the same answer:

So there is definitely a new model coming. I hope it’s a new 4.0 Type A card that has read speeds of up to 1800 MB/s and write speeds of up to 1650 MB/s. Of course only future new Sony cameras will support these kind of speed as new hardware is required. Nevertheless the 4.0 cards are backwards compatible with 900 MB/s speed.

P.S.: My bet is that the Sony A7sIV will support 4.0 Type A.

PetaPixel reports that “More than 50 a9 III cameras and 145 lenses were available for photographers and Sony Pro Support was on hand, too.

Kyle Rivas was one of the Sony photographers and he told to PetaPixel:

I say if this camera’s power allows me to think at the same pace as an athlete like Mahomes and Kelce, I choose the Sony a9 III every time.
