Sony patent discloses a new (or updated) mount for mirrorless system
A new Patent application published on June 6 shows this mount with 8 pins. The current E-mount has 10 pins. I don’t know if this is a patent for an updated E-mount with 8 pins or for a completely new mount (medium format?).
There is no info in the patent that could lead us to the answer. What’s your “feeling” on this?
