The eagerly anticipated Sony FE 70-200 mm F2.8 GM OSS is listed at £2999.00 on Jessops.com.
Amazon US lists the lens with no price info yet but I guess the US price will be around $3499…

Thanks Danny W. for this!
I have been told the price listed by Kamerahuset.dk is the right one. The Danish Krone price equals to around 3.000 Euro (or $3350). Of course you have to expect the real Euro or Dollar price to be slightly different due the different tax system. Interesting details of the Kamerahuset image on top: It uses one of the new FE teleconverters (the 2.x).
70-200mm GM lens is listed with no preorders option at Amazon US, BHphoto, BestBuy, Digitalrev.
Sony FE 1.4x Teleconverter at BHphoto.
Sony FE 2.0x Teleconverter BHphoto.

Phillip Reeve has a rolling review of that lens:
The build quality is very nice as the lens is an all metal construction and feels very solid, tolerances are very low and the markings are engraved and filled with white (and red) paint.
Due the 24-70mm GM shipment delay Amazon stopped taking preorders. This changed today: You can now order the lens (Click here) and even get an additional 3% reward on it!

Sony released their forecast report which includes the Kumamoto damage estimation. And we have bad news to report:
While we have no solid info yet…I guess that we can expect many Sony cameras like the rumored A99II or A9 to be announced much later than originally planed. Just like it happened with the A68 North America launch that got delayed by over 2 months.
I als wonder what exactly Sony means that they will “terminate the development and manufacturing of high-functionality camera modules for external sale“. Any idea?

This is not an Alpha related news but it may be interesting for some of our readers: A source just sent me this:
Also a successor to the market leading FDR-X1000V will be introduced by appropriate partners and into the market. It will feature improved image quality and video resolution and frame rate.
From what I gathered this can mean the IMX318 Sensor will be used:
