Sony Japan issued a “high demand” warning on the A99II. Because of unexpected high demand on the domestic (Japanese) market they expect a delay int he A99II shipment. It is unclear yet if also countries are affected by this.

The Sony A7 camera series is back in Stock in almost all US and EU stores. I guess this means the Kumamoto negative impact on the camera shipments is almost over. Just recently Sony manager Kimio Maki told at Amateur Photographer:
“The situation is getting better. With regard to returning to normal, we’re expecting that this will be the case by the end of October.”
And Reuters reports another good news:
Ueda said combined monthly production would rise in the second half of this business year from 70,000 wafers at present to 73,000 wafers – full capacity at Sony’s five image sensor plants. The figure excludes outsourced production.

Demonstrated for the first time to the public in the United States, attendees to the 2016 PDN PhotoPlus International Conference + Expo (PPE), held at the Javits Convention Center in New York City from October 20-22, 2016, can see first-hand the new Sigma Cine family of lenses:
Cine High Speed Zoom Line – 18-35mm T2 and 50-100mm T2

Cine FF Zoom Line – 24-35mm T2.2 FF
Compatible with a full-frame image sensor, the FF Zoom’s outstanding optical performance also supports 6K-8K shooting.
