Sony A9II mockup

SonyAlphaRumors reports  the Sony A9II will be announced in October. And the reaction of the SonyAlpha Community is to go onto the  streets all over the world to protest against it. Shouting ” We want the A7sIII, we wat the A7sIII”
It’s reported they devastated entire blocks and various stores. The protest is going out of control and military is reported to soon intervene with tanks to stop the uncontrolled rage.

Sony’s managements is not going to give an inch to the protesters. ON the contrary, they decided to delays the launch by another couple of years to 2057.

Fujirumors reports:

The Fujifilm X-Pro3 will be announced in the second half of October.

No specs have been shared yet but it’s been rumored the X-PRO 3 will use  the tilt screen version used by this SP-X concept camera:

Sony has registered a new High End camera  in Asia. It  has the same Wifi capabilities as the new A7rIV which suggests this might be a new High End Full Frame E-mount camera. I  think it’s a safe bet to narrow down the possibilities to two cameras:

A9II or A7sIII (or A7sIV)

Logically speaking the A7sIII would be the one camera that should be announced first. But there is no logic in Sony’s company marketing segment so this might be the A9II :)
