Reliable sources told us that Sony will have a new product announcement at the WPPI show on or around February 26! The big question is….what can we expect to get?
First one fact: Sony registered the code of one new camera by end 2017. Which means there is a fair chance we might get such a camera soon.
What camera can we hope to get?
- A7III: I give a 60% chance that this might be the new A7III with 24Mp sensor, 4K30p, same A7rIII and A9 battery, joystick and touchscreen.
- A6700: I got no rumor about such a camera yet. I would give a 35% chance to see this camera announced at WPPI.
- A7sIII: I think the A7sIII will be announced at the NAB show in April.
What about lenses?
- 135mm f/1.8 FE GM: I hope Sony will announce this lens at WPPI
- 400mm f/2.8 FE GM: I don’t think this lens will be announced at WPPI.
- 200-600mm FE: Also that lens is unlikely to be announced at WPPI.
Of course there is still plenty of room for unexpected surprises! Any wishful thinking you want to share? :)
