The launch of the Sony A7V is postponed and another E-mount full-frame camera is expected sooner!

Share

Back in December and in January Sony did register two new camera codes. Usually this means we should get an official announcement within 3-4 months. But now I have a bad news (and two small good news):

The very same sources that gave me correct info about the just announced two new 16mm and 400-800mm G lenses told me that the Sony A7V launch has been likely postponed by a few months. I made a quick summary of what they told me:

Source 1 (long time trusted source):

The Sony A7V is ready but Sony is waiting for Canon R6III to make the first pricing move in this segment, and are willing to postpone the A7V launch if they have to.

Source 2 (new source, but I believe he can be trusted):

The Sony A7v will be delayed, unfortunately a lot.
It could be so bad that it won’t come until the end of the year, late autumn at the earliest. This is information I have received from the depths of Sony.

Source 3 (trusted source):

Sony is still having problems producing enough Sony A1II cameras. This is also a reason why they are waiting with the launch of the new A7V. The production of the A1II should reach the targets by the end of March/April.

Reminder:

Sony OFFICIALLY registered two new cameras in December and January,  and I think one of those might be the A7V. This is another indication that the A7V would indeed be ready for launch, but Sony prefers to wait.

TWO good news:

  1. Another new camera coming: One of the sources also told me that now that the A7V has been delayed, Sony is planning to introduce another E-mount full frame ‘niche’ camera in the spring. I should have some information about this camera soon.
  2. A stunning GM lens coming soon: One trusted source told me about a “stunning” GM lens that should be announced in Spring. More about that soon on SAR!

Recap:

It’s disappointing to hear that the A7V is coming later than expected. I hope that at least the long wait will be worth it and that the specs will be great and it won’t be another ‘lukewarm’ update like we had with the Sony A1II. But I hope to be able to bring you some joy with rumors about this next “other” camera and the GM lens ;)
