They are going to be announced next week and be priced between $4,000 and $6,000 just like the other currently available lenses.

Camranger announced that their upcoming new version will add full Sony support. Here is the press text:
CamRanger 2
The original CamRanger has been the standard for wireless tethering. The upcoming CamRanger II will set the new standard for professional photographers.
Faster & Farther
With 802.11ac WiFi, the CamRanger 2 is over 5 times faster. Even the 802.11n WiFi is over 2 times faster. And the usable range is over 3 times farther.
Sony & Fuji Support
Nikon and Canon support will of course continue, but the CamRanger 2 will also support select Sony and Fujifilm cameras. We always said we would not offer support until we could do it in a way that works for professionals. Our new design removes previous limitations, limitations other wireless tethering devices suffer from.
New App Design and Features
Like the new CamRanger Mini software, the new apps have a newer, more modern feel based on customer feedback.
The new app is also packed with new features that we will be unveiling later.
Coming 2019….

Canon and Nikon you had your time of glory. Now Sony is smelling blood…
In a surprise move YESTERDAY Sony communicated to the Photokina team that they decided at the very last moment to have a press conference on September 25 at 10am Berlin time. Today the Photokina officially updated the page and shows this:
But there is more. Many journalists also contacted us to say that they just got an invitation for a major E-mount event around September 18. We have yet no 100% guarantee what’s coming but I am sure this is a BIG event as it involves many days of stay on a location with new Sony gear.
I find it very interesting that they decided to make their press events in the very last-minute only. I wonder in what measure Canon and Nikon influenced their decision! To sum up we now have three(!!!) press events from Sony:
September 14 at 9.30am Berlin time: Expect a new pro camcorder. Only very small chance to get the new A7sIII tough (we will livestream the event on SAR).
September 18 (plus minus one day): Major E-mount event. Maybe for new High End APS-C E-mount camera and/or the new A7sIII?
September 25 at 10am Berlin time: Photokina press conference. Maybe they will only show the products announced on Sept 18 or maybe they have some additional gear?
Moreover we will have TWO(!!!) Zeiss events. More about that soon on SAR ;)
UPDATED: What’s going to be announced by Sony? A7xxx, A7sIII and a third camera rumors…
My speculation is that they will introduce the new very high-end APS-C E-mount camera and a couple of new lenses (24mm GM, 135mm GM and a new APS-C lens). The A7sIII launch would make more sense in October to honor the exact 5 year of the first Sony A7–A7r camera launch happened in October 16 2013. One anonymous source told me the Sept 18 event will indeed give us the A7sIII with fully articulated screen and 4k60p. Let’s hope he is right! It would kill the V-logging Canon EOS-R camera right from the start by giving V-Loggers real FF 4K without crop! But being this source anonymous let’s wait and not fly too high with our dreams yet…
UPDATE: This is also unconfirmed…but for the first time I heard about a possible new FF E-mount camera that is NOT the A7sIII and that might be announced at Photokina…
