RUMOR: Sony will launch the new FE 70-200 F2.8 GM OSS II this month!

I can now confirm that Sony will soon launch the new FE 70-200 F2.8 GM OSS II lens. Possibly on October 21 along the new Sony A7IV.

This isn’t a surprise. I already wrote that Sony plans to update both GM zooms, the 24-70mm II and the 70-200mm II. What I am not sure yet is if also the 24-70mm GM II will be announced in October or if it’s going to be announced later. Hope to get info on this soon…

RUMOR: Sony A7IV to be announced around October 21? New specs: 3.69m dot EVF, 4k60p….

The tentative date for the A7IV announcement is around October 21 (depending on time zone). I am saying “tentative” because as we saw with the ZV-E10 launch Sony can surprise us with a last minute delay :)
