Yes! We have the final proof Sony is about to launch a new f/2.8 zoom series! And we also found the officially Sony trademarked logo of this new lens series called “G Master”.
Sony will soon (at CP+?) announce the first of these lenses, the 24-70mm f/2.8 GM. The document in our hands doesn’t unveil any other details of the lens but this should be a Full Frame E-mount lens. It’s yet unclear how Sony will differentiate this lens line from [shoplink 44108 ebay]current Zeiss zooms[/shoplink] or [shoplink 44109 ebay]Sony A-mount f/2.8 zooms[/shoplink]. Maybe those are powerzooms or “cine-friendly” lenses like the Zeiss Master series?

To recap Sony is “rumored” to launch many new products before or at the Cp+ show in February. These are some of the stuff that could be announced soon:
New A6100
New HX400 successor
Another new mirrorless (unclear what it is or if that is the A99 successor…)
New GM lens line (24-70mm f/2.8)
New FE roadmap with 85mm fast prime and at least a telephoto lens
Zeiss will launch the 18mm Batis

Stay tuned on SAR, its’ going to be very exciting here on SAR the coming days ;)

Back in early December a trusted source shared us the image and correct specs of the new AS50 action camera that then was launched at CES (article here). So let’s hope he is correct too on the rumor he just shared me today! He said Sony is about to announce at least three new cameras:

1. The a6100 is coming soon
2. There might be a successor to the [shoplink 44064 ebay]hx400[/shoplink] coming as well.
3. he also mentioned a new mirrorless camera in the lineup…”no specifics about this one. yes…a completely new model….take this with a grain of salt, because sony is really keeping us in the dark, but it might be true.“

I don’t know what that third camera could be (maybe A5xxx, A7000 or A7rIII, A99II (sort of mirrorless or not?) or maybe something completely new?).

I also do expect the new FE lens roadmap and prototypes to be shows at or shortly after the Cp+ show. There will be also a new Zeiss Batis 18mm lens.
