By chance I stumbled on this 2013 old rendering of a modular Sony E-mount cameras made by the Designers Dae jin Ahn & Chun hyun Park (Yankodesign). I know there is near zero chance Sony will ever do a modular camera.
Still, maybe it’s time for the engineers to think out of the box to challenge the future Canon and Nikon FF mirrorless?
A modular design is complicated and has many downsides. On the other side big companies like RED had a huge success with their modular cameras. So maybe it’s worth a try…what do you think?

Arne: “I just published my second video, where I try to find the best Astro lens for E-mount crop sensors, the Samyang 12 mm or the new Sigma 16 mm. And we may have a new top astro lens! The video if you would like to share it is at https://youtu.be/u_GgOd-UnNs”
I took this lens to a football bowl game in December of 2017 and tried it with the Simga MC-11 adapter with the Sony A9. It worked really well, so well, in fact, that I think it is 90% of the experience of any FE lens. I’m really impressed.

The big CP+ show will start on March 1. And there are three Sony cameras due for an update:
Sony A5100.
Sony discontinued the A5000 and this might be a good sign the new A5300 could be announced soon. Or will Sony’s futur APS-C line just be made of A6xxx cameras?
Sony A7II.
The A7III is definitely coming in 2018. But we can’t be sure yet if it’s coming at Cp+ already. It will have 24MP, nearly same A9 autofocus system and use the new Sony battery
Sony A7sII.
The Sony A7sIII will not be announced at CP+. Expect it to see it coming at the NAB show in April.
Fact: Sony registered a new camera code in late 2017. This means at least one camera will be announced soon!
