at BHphoto the camera is on “Back Order”
Asobinet reports that the Sony RX100 VA has been officially discontinued. This was Sony’s last RX camera with the fast 24-70mm f/1.8-2.8 Lens. Now all we have left is the Sony RX100VII with the 24-200mm f/2.8-4.5 Lens.
There is no rumor yet about a possible new RX100 model in 2025, I hope there is one…. but I wouldn’t bet on it :(
Guys, it’s time to share my opinion on Sony’s possible camera roadmap for 2025. Some things I’m sure about, some things I’m skeptical about, and some things I’m very skeptical about. For starters, I’m pretty sure we’ll get more cameras in 2025 than 2024 (A1II and ZV-E10II only). This is a possible list of cameras that could be announced based on the usual Sony release cycle:
Cameras that are NOT going to be released in 2025:
Cameras that could be announced during the first half of 2025:
Cameras that could be announced during the second half of 2025:
Impossible dreams
My serious guess: I’m sure the A7V and the FX9/6 successor will come. I think an FX3II is also a hot candidate. But the real highlight should be announced in November 2025. And it will be one of these three cameras: A7sIV, A7rVI and RX1rIII. I would love to have all three, but I’m happy if Sony only makes one of them :) What do you think about this roadmap? Too optimistic? Something else missing? Let me know in the comment system!

The CEO of Sigma, Kazuto Yamaki, shared his personal insights about the company and the photography industry as a whole. As always, a very insightful, honest and thought-provoking conversation that is well worth watching! At the very end of the conversation, he revealed a little sneak peek:
They are developing a telephoto lens that “never existed before”. He says: “Sports and wildlife photographers could be very excited about this lens”.
I have no idea what this lens might be, but in the past few years I have discovered a few Sigma patents with a “unique” focal length:
But I really don’t know if this is the kind of telephoto lens Sigma is working on. Let me know in the comments what you think or hope Sigma will announce in 2025!
