We know for a fact that Sony registered two new High End cameras in China: One is 100% sure to be the A9III ( announcement on November 8th or January at max). But it’s totally unclear yet what the second camera is. An obvious guess would be the this is the A7sIV as it’s the current A7sIII is the oldest Full Frame camera after the A9II. And therefore expected to get a successor sometimes in 2024.

There are some early wild rumors I am receiving about this new A7sIV. Nothing from trusted sources…and therefore highly unreliable. Some of those rumors say the A7sIV would be the first Alpha camera with the new 2-layer sensor from Sony. Check out the video to hear out the specs!

A second source confirmed the Sony 300mm f/2.8 GM will be announced on November 8th.

I still got NO confirmation the A9III will be announced on that same event. All I am sure about is that if it’s not going to be announced next week that with 100% certainty it will be announced on the next Sony event that is scheduled for January. But it simply might be that Sony is incredibly tight lipped on this camera as it I know they spent a lot of advertisement money on this camera.

To recap:

Sony November 8th announcement:

• New 300mm f/2.8 GM
• Maybe new A1 firmware update
• Maybe new A9III (if not, than it will be announced in January)

Yongnuo will soon announce two new lenses that are rather unique. They have a built-in 2.4Ghz wireless chip, so remote control, autofocus, AB focus, etc. are possible.
