While Sony is asleep at the wheel Ricoh will launch TWO new GR compact cameras in 2025

One of my TRUSTED sources told me something about Ricoh:

new Ricoh GRIV camera coming in Q1 2025
new Ricoh GRIV monochrome coming later in 2025

Now, I know this is a Sony website, but I find it interesting that Ricoh is having a huge success in this fixed lens camera market while Sony is completely asleep on the wheel. Sony had quite a successful RX camera range…let’s hope there is something coming down the road in 2025…

Now 12 months without a new Sony FF camera announcement

November 13, 2024
news
0 Comments

We are now in November and this means that 12 months passed without a Sony Full Frame E-mount camera announcement. The last FF camera Sony announced was the Sony A9III back in November 2023.

The past 7 years Sony always did announce at least 1 new FF E-mount camera. 2016 was the exception although they did announce a new A-mount FF camera (the Sony A99II).

2023: A9III, A7cR, A7cII, ZV-E1
2022: A7rV
2021: A7IV, FX3, A1
2020: A7c, A7sIII
2019: A9II, A7rIV
2018: A7III
2017: A7rIII, A9

I was afraid that this would be the first year in a long time that Sony wouldn’t announce a new FF camera. But now I know for sure we are getting the Sony A1 successor on November 19 :)
