(SR5) Sony will DEFINITELY announce the new Sony A9II in early October

Share

Image on top is  just a Sony A9II mockup!

Back in early August we told you three cameras would be announced soon: 2 new APS-C cameras in late August (rumor here) and 1 new FF camera in September October (rumor here). We were spot on with these rumors and today I can share you the most “reliable” rumor I posted this year:

YES the new Sony A9II is coming within weeks!!!
I am now 100% SURE Sony will announce the new Sony A9II in late early October. I got clear evidence supporting this but I cannot for obvious reason share it to you. Trust me on this rumor I will NOT be proven wrong ;)

And now a small correction on yesterday’s SR3 ranked rumor:
Sony has indeed a smaller “closed door” event for professional Sports photographers in mid September (as reported  yesterday). But we now heard the official journalist open event will be hold in late September/early October.

What we know so far:
100% chance there will be a journalist press meeting in early October
100% chance Sony will  announce the new Sony A9II
60% chance the A9II has a new 36 Megapixel sensor

What else can we expect?
I got no info about new lenses that might be announced on that event. But I think it would make sense if  Sony would announce some new sports glass along the A9II.

So please stay tuned,  I will tell you  more about this A9II as soon as “I can” :)

(SR3) New info about the next FX9 and FX6 Full Frame E-mount camcorders…

Share

Image on top shows the current FS7 E-mount camcorder

We got three new “messages” about the possible FX9 and FX6 cameras:

Source 1:

The next generation of XDCAM cameras from Sony are the PXW-FX9 and PXW-FX6. These will feature the next generation of sensor chipset providing much improved AF with face detection and Eye-AF.

These will also be based on the current FS5/7 design and with some features from the Sony Venice cinema camera. First out is the higher end PXW-FX9 this fall and next year a lower end PXW-FX6.

Codecs include XAVC for both cameras with XQD on the PXW-FX9 and SDXC for the PXW-FX6. Both will do 10-bit internal recording and external RAW recording. Resolution for the PXW-FX9 is almost full 6K in full frame and for the PXW-FX6 S35 sized sensor at around 5.7K. PXW-FX9 will use XAVC-I and XAVC-L codecs and PXW-FX6 will use XAVC-L only.

Source  2:

24MP “VENICE” Style Sensor Full Frame Video Camera FX9 Coming!
oh, a7S III…

Source 3:

Sony FE Cinema camera $10K
Coming soon

Source 4 (already posted weeks ago):

Sony will be releasing a successor to the FS7 camera with a 6k full frame sensor and dual-base ISO this December, the current prototype’s name is the FX9. Announcement is coming in mid September.
