I talked to the stores I am in contact with in the USA and EU. They shared some early stats about the sales:
This isn’t much different from our POLL which shows that more or less the preorders are equally distributed, except for the A7cR which is a bit behind:

I do own the Viltrox 16mm f/1.8 FE lens and I am impressed by it’s performance considering it costs a third of similar competition lenses. So I am very intrigued about what’s coming next and indeed sounds the company is on fire and plans some BIG stuff!
Richard Wong visited the Viltrox headquarter and he got some info about what’s coming next:
1) These three lenses will be big and from what I understood FF lenses. They will be announced by end 2023:
2) Very affordable 20mm pancake around $150. But performance will be high. More smaller lenses will be coming in future:
3) New LAB series will launch soon:
The LAB series will be something like the OTUS line at Zeiss. The optical performance will be higher than the PRO series of Viltrox. I do love the idea of a high quality lens that does cost MUCH less than Sony. But I do hope that they will also work on lenses that aren’t the usual focal length. At the moment we have SIXTYONE 50mm lenses (source BHphoto)…do we really need another 50mm f/1.4?
Viltrox, Tamron, Sigma, give us some f/2.0 or f/1.8 zooms, some nice compact f/2.0 and fast f/1.2 primes. That would be something or not?

DxO just released the new Nik Collection 6.3 (Click here). It’s one of the software I use most and have created and saved a lot of presets for myself. This is what you get with the new version:
New for 6.3: Improved Sharpener and HDR Efex
The new editions of Nik Sharpener and Nik HDR Efex include a host of updates making them more powerful and easier to use. Both feature a new interface with a clearer, cleaner look that matches the other Nik Collection plugins. Also, you can now choose where sliders for local adjustments appear on-screen: controls can be either kept in a sidebar to tidy the image area, or overlaid in traditional style.
And as with Nik Collection 6.3’s other plugins, the U Point™ technology in Nik HDR Efex and Nik Sharpener now features:
Nik Collection 6.3 makes editing easy
Thanks to all of its new and improved features, Nik Collection 6.3 is easier to use than ever before. It plugs straight into Adobe Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, Lightroom Classic, DxO PhotoLab, and Affinity Photo, providing unprecedented creative control without affecting your preferred workflow.
Several new workflow features make editing even easier:
