The CP+ trade fair starts on February 27. Last year, Sony announced the 24-50mm f/2.8 G on February 21, just before the show. And it looks like we might get another lens this year as well. According to a NEW source, we will get the FE 50-105mm F2.8 G lens at the end of February.

This is not a rumor confirmed by trusted sources, so take it with a grain of salt. But according to the source, this lens will be a continuation of the 16-25 and 24-50mm f/2.8 G lens series. That means it will be compact and very lightweight.

Nevertheless, keep in mind that this information does NOT yet come from my trusted sources. It’s unlikely that the Sony A7V will be announced at the C+ show, as Sony traditionally prefers to announce its big new cameras outside of such events to enjoy the full spotlight. An announcement in March is therefore much more likely.

From the information I have gathered, it seems that Sony will announce a new lens in February before the SP+ trade show. I am working to get confirmation on the lens specifications. Some rumors have previously pointed out the possibility of an update to this lens, but I actually believe it will be a completely new piece of glass!
As for new camera launches, the bet is that the Sony A7V will be the first camera coming in 2025–most likely in March, since Sony likes to announce big news at such trade shows. No word yet on possible specifications, but I’m crossing my fingers that the camera will use Sony’s new 44MP and 20fps sensor. That would be a killer cam, don’t you think?

Guys, it’s time to share my opinion on Sony’s possible camera roadmap for 2025. Some things I’m sure about, some things I’m skeptical about, and some things I’m very skeptical about. For starters, I’m pretty sure we’ll get more cameras in 2025 than 2024 (A1II and ZV-E10II only). This is a possible list of cameras that could be announced based on the usual Sony release cycle:

Cameras that are NOT going to be released in 2025:

• No successor to the A6700 (and no other APS-C E-mount camera either!
• No successor to the A7cII–A7cR and no A7cS
• No successor to the ZV-E1

Cameras that could be announced during the first half of 2025:

• Sony A7V: Body of the A1II, new 44MP(?) and 20 fps(?)
• Sony FX9/FX6 successor
• Sony FX3II with 24MP global shutter sensor of the A9III

Cameras that could be announced during the second half of 2025:

• Sony As7IV with 24MP global shutter sensor OR the Sony A7rVI with new near 100MP sensor (watch the video on top for more details)
• Sony RX1rIII

Impossible dreams

• Sony A7000 flagship APS-C camera
• Sony medium format camera

My serious guess: I’m sure the A7V and the FX9/6 successor will come. I think an FX3II is also a hot candidate. But the real highlight should be announced in November 2025. And it will be one of these three cameras: A7sIV, A7rVI and RX1rIII. I would love to have all three, but I’m happy if Sony only makes one of them :) What do you think about this roadmap? Too optimistic? Something else missing? Let me know in the comment system!
