Bad surprise: Panasonic G9II preorder numbers are extremely low. What could save Micro Four Thirds?
I asked store managers from Europe and USA how the new Lumix g9II was selling. The answer did surprise me and I wonder why it’s selling so bad.

Sirui announced three new APS-C autofocus lenses for Nikon Z, Fuji X and Sony E mount cameras. All three will be released in November. CineD spoiled more info about these lenses:
Each lens weighs around 400g/0.88lb and has a 58mm front filter thread. The lenses have decent close-focus capabilities. The minimum focus distance of the 23mm is around 30cm, while the 33 and 56mm can focus as close as 40 and 50cm respectively. The Sniper lenses will be available in black or white finishes. The black version includes carbon fiber and metal gray parts, while the white lenses seem to have a glossy ceramic feel – which is quite unusual to see in a lens. Each lens should cost around €350
