There is a small chance Sony will announce the new A7sIII. There is also a new 24mm f/1.4 GM that will be announced soon. But this lens might be announced in a next event (Kando trip?) in May-June only.

Note: For 3 hours we reported the wrong hour. We now corrected it :)

(SR4) α7sⅢ will have new stacked image sensor with integral memory

It’s completely uncertain if Sony will show the new A7sIII at the NABshow

The following rumor is from the same source whom shared the correct 100mm STF lens rumor. He told me this:

α7sⅢ will have new stacked image sensor with integral memory and will have High ISO sensitivity and improved AF.

I know this doesn’t tell us anything useful yet. I hope to get some solid specs soon.

Just some fun: The First April A7sIII specs from Filmmakers.pro:

This is now seriously weird: First Sony A7sIII book on sale at Amazon Germany!

At first I thought this would be an April’s Fools Joke. But you can really preorder this book at Amazon Germany! And if that would be a joke they would have to reimburse all those who ordered the book. And if this isn’t a joke and just a guess from the authors they would get in trouble too: Just imagine people buying this book as a guide for the future A7sIII and then it turns out the real A7sIII  works not as the book says it should. And at last: the book is from serious company and from serious writers.

So honestly, this is a bit confusing…and if it’s a joke it’s a seriously good one.

(SR5) New Flagship APS-C model will be announced within 2018

The following rumors is from my very best source. The same source told me about the new 24mm f/1.4 GM lens that should be announced soon. This source now confirmed that Sony will definitely announce a new “Flagship APS-C model” in 2018.

The source did not share any details yet but I guess this camera will be named A6700 (join the facebook group here).

I hope to receive few more details about this camera soon!

What to expect next from Sony: Sony A7sIII, 24mm f/1.4 GM, 200-600mm FE G and more

This year we had a very good start with many reliable rumors coming true. Before to move on with the next set of rumors let’s make a recap about that we know and don’t know so far:

Sony A7sIII:
Sony has yet NOT registered any new camera code in Asia. This makes it completely uncertain if the camera will be announced at the NAB show in early April. From a specs point of view the A7sIII should have the same A7rIII, A7III autofocus and body improvements. With the addition of 4k60fps. Unclear what bitrate we can expect to get on the A7sIII.

Sony A77III (A-mount):
I still didn’t get a 100% confirmation this camera is coming. But there is a chance Sony could announce such a camera in May-June.

Sony A6700:
I should have some info about this soon ;)

Sony 24mm f/1.4 GM:
This lens should be announced within the next 6 months. The info comes from a top source.

Soy 200-600mm FE G:
This lens is in development and should be announced some times AFTER the 400mm f/2.8 GM

Sony 135mm FE:
This lens is on the Sony lens roadmap too. I have no info about the release date but I hope it’s coming before Photokina.

Possible surprises:
I haven’t heard about any Sony medium format camera or any other possible A9r yet. Although I didn’t get any rumors about this I think there might be a new RX100 release in June.
