Tick Tock Tick Tock…it’s our time now ;)
Stay tuned!
Stay tuned!
The Sony A7sII is three and a half-year old. Still Sony felt no pressure to update it so far. Neither Canon nor Nikon managed to release a competitor to this camera. But on May 31 the Sony solo ride will have an end.
It’s rumored that Panasonic will launch a new Cine oriented Panasonic S L-mount camera. I have no specs of this new camera but Panasonic is certainly capable of making a high quality video camera.
The new Sony A7sIII is rumored to be on market this autumn. If the Panasonic S is a good camera for a good value this might forces Sony to price it accordingly. At the end competition is good for us Sony folks too :)

On May 31 at around 8pm New York Time Sony will have a press conference. But as far as I have heard this is for High-level Cine gear only. Don’t think they mean the A7sIII with that. I guess it’s related to their VENICE camcorder. Don’t know yet if they will bring some new updated or announce some new Cine Gear too.
I got this from a new source. No idea if it makes sense at all:
A7S3 Will support: ProRes Raw + ProRes RawHQ
Would be surprised to learn this will be true!!!

The Voigtlander 21mm f/1.4 FE lens is rumored to be launched in June for a price tag around 160,000 YEN. This is about the same YEN price of the Voigtlander 40mm f/1.2 FE. It means we can expect this lens to cost $1,100 too.

Small bad news: It will still take 1-2 months before Tamron will open the preorders in mid 2019 only. Which means lens might start to ship out in September-October only :(
The lens is listed with no pricing at BHphoto, FocusCamera and Adorama.
