I told you that after the ZV1 announcement on May 26 Sony will have a major announcement in June. We should get at least a new FF E-mount camera but from what I heard so far this will NOT be the A7IV. So chances are good to get the A7sII successor or/and something else. One thing for sure: We will get new FE lenses too!

But I expect to get many more details soon. Stay tuned as usual!

I can now confirm via multiple sources that around May 26 Sony will announce the new “Sony ZV1” compact selfie camera. The camera is specially made for vloggers and has the following characteristics:

1. Improved mic
2. Vari Angle LCD
3. 24-70mm F1.8 – 2.8
4.One Touch Bokeh Feature
5. Auto Object Detect
6. Existing Real Time AF and Real time Eye AF

Don’t worry, after the May 26 event Sony will have a MAJOR Full Frame E-mount event in June!  And keep always in mind SAR was the only website reporting the ZV1 rumor yet. All the others are copycats ;)
