There was a joint CP+ live stream to explain the future of the L-mount system. If I got the google translation right than these are some of the key info:

• L-mount is now the third most popular mount in Japan
• Sigma increased it’s market share since the introduction of the FP
• Leica said they will keep focusing on the very high end market
• Panasonic said they are developing multiple cameras and lenses
• Sigma also want to release some more “crazy” products
• There is a possibility the L-mount alliance will get new partners

Sigma streamed a new CP+ chat video. And they made it clear that a new “DG DN” Sports zoom lens is in development. Could be the 70-200mm f/2.8 that was rumored for some time?

And a couple of days ago in another interview Sigma said “we may see some Sigma X-mount lenses in 2021”.

Panasonic posted this long video chat for the CP+ online event. From around 51:00, Mr. Uno talks about the Micro Four Thirds system and says:

• Yes we are “considering” to make the GH5 successor (which is just a diplomatic way to say “yes we are doing it”).
• We are also considering to make a “Revolutionary” new zoom lenses and new fast single focus lenses for Micro Four Thirds.
• He says “Please look forward to it”

Finally a big bold statement from Panasonic! This breathes some fresh hope into the MFT system believers :)
