Share

Sony officially announced their press release event on January 8th 5pm Las Vegas time. They will be surely focused on all automotive gear tech and not so much on video-photography related gear. At best we will get the new FX camera that could be a successor of both the FX6/FX9 E-mount cameras. But don’t worry folks, soon I will be able to share some RELIABLE rumors about new upcoming Sony gear…I already got “something” ;)

Crazy rumor? Sony FX3II coming in March will replace both the FX3 and A7sIII

Share

The A7sIII is the oldest Alpha camera in the lineup. But does it still make sense for Sony to make a A7sIV if you have the very successful FX3 camera? While my trusted sources still didn’t let me know if there is a new A7sIV is coming in 2024 one of the WILD rumors I got (therefore high chance of BS!!!) says the following:

  • A7s-series will not be further developed in favor of FX-series
  • FX3-successor has global shutter
  • 12,9 MP, 4k, 180p
  • fanless
  • EVF as an accessory
  • Announcement end of March

Now, I warned you this might be BS. But in some sense…this rumor also makes a lot of sense. Why bother to develop and release two new cameras if you can do all in one? What do you think?
