And I just got more news about the new Sony ZV1 camera that will be announced on May 26:
So it’s damn good news to hear Sony implementing the fully articulating screen we were asking for YEARS! That gives us hope the A7sII successor and maybe the A7IV will have it too :)
The very same sources sharing the ZV1 details also say there is a super big Full Frame event in June. So if the ZV1 rumor turns out to be true on May 26 than there is a very big chance the Full Frame info I got is correct too. What does that info say? Stay tuned the next days on SAR to learn about it ;)

I know folks, sometimes Sony disappointed us, sometimes my rumors disappointed you. But this time I am 99% sure the rumors I got are good ;)
Sony will first announce the new ZV1 compact camera on May 26 and in June there will be at least three new FF products announced by Sony! So please be sure to follow us on Facebook, Twitter and subscribe our mailing list here (Check spam folder if you don’t get confirmation mail):
Today I will post more Sony ZV1 info, but there is a lot more to come the days after about the new Full Frame E-mount gear that Sony will launch in June!
Sony released the full 2020 financial report. And Sony reports a 57% drop in fourth-quarter profit (Jan-March 2020) because of the Covd19 outbreak. And In Q4 the still and video camera/lens sales dropped by 25% compared to last year
There is also a good and bad news. Bad news first:
Sales and profit from digital cameras are being significantly impacted by a substantial slowdown in demand around the world.
Good news:
In China and Thailand, the factories owned by Sony that make digital cameras and smartphones are currently operating as usual.
Also the imaging sensor production is back to normal.
Overall nothing is getting in the way to announce new products from now on :)
