Sony confirms Photokina 2020 presence while Nikon, Leica and Olympus drop out!

The Photokina organization issued an official statement confirming that Sony will be present at the May 2020 show:

“We look forward to strong demand and applications from both the new and the classic segments of companies like Canon, CEWE, GoPro, Sony, Panasonic, Kodak Alaris, Sigma, Tamron, Carl Zeiss, Hasselblad, Hahnemühle, Arri, Rode Mikrophones, DJI and Insta360”, says Christoph Werner, Vice President of Koelnmesse. These are contrasted by cancellations, including from Leica, Nikon and Olympus.

It’s a bit stunning to see three companies missing this show for the first time in decades!
