Based on his long experience Tony Northrup is guessing what’s coming next from the big companies (Sony, Canon and Nikon). He does believe Sony will actually release two different A9 models at Photokina. Those would be the specs:
And in 2017 we would get three more FE cameras:
Just for fun…

This video shows a classic three-point-lighting setup with two F60Ms and an F43M as control flash.
In this video we illustrate the practical application for wireless flash.

You get both the [shoplink 45757 ebay]Black (Click here)[/shoplink] and the [shoplink 45758 ebay]Silver (Click here)[/shoplink] Rokinon 12mm lens for $318. This is a manual focusing but high quality prime lens. We really don’t have too many of those “pure APS-C” prime lenses or the A6300.
And the brand new Lexar cards already got a major nice price drop and is a top seller at Amazon US (Click here)

A little background on me, and my style of shooting:
I love photographing beauty (close portraits), and I like the drama that comes with a narrow depth-of-field (DOF). The type of lens required to attain these two things falls in the 75-90mm range, and must be relatively fast (f1.8 or faster).
I love the [shoplink 47718]Sony a7R II[/shoplink] because I can adapt almost any lens ever made, and over this past year, I’ve given a good go at trying ALL of them ;)
All of the images below were shot wide open.
The first portrait lens I had for the a7r II was an adapted [shoplink 48745]Canon 85mm f1.8[/shoplink] that my wife, Kelly Williams, gave to me. It rendered very beautiful images, but since it was adapted, the AF was slow, and it was very prone to purple fringing. Since I like to shoot backlit, this compounded both of these problems.
The Korean Store Astrofocus.co.kr listed the price info for the new Samyang 50mm f/1.4 FE autofocus lens. Converted in dollars the price is $560.

You can now download and install the new Stg-uploader APP (Click here). This is the APP description:
This tool installs on your Sony PMCA compatible camera and allows you to upload files into Google Photos directly without using a computer. Neither of these brands endorses or is in any way associated with this tool. To install please refer to Sony-PMCA-RE
When using this application you will need to configure a connection to a WiFi access point. Once this is complete the application will prompt you to grant it an oAuth token. This token will allow it to manage your Google Photos account. Your Google username and password are not stored on the device. Your access token is obfuscated and stored on your SD card. Formatting your card will delete this token and you will have to log in again. In the case you lose your camera/card you can delete this authorization token here
This isn’t an official Sony supported APP. But as a Google Photo user I am very excited about this new feature and I am going to install this today!
