Sony “Hints” at A9II model while Olympus says they can’t comment rumors about PEN-F line death

We got a double interview today: Dpreview interviewed Yasuyuki Nagata from Sony and Imaging Resource posted this interview with Olympus managers.

Sony did  nothing to hide the fact that they are close to launch a new A9II model. In one year we have the Tokyo Olympics and the A9II has to be out this year to have enough time to win over some photographers heart.

Olympus did not disclose anything about the future models. They could NOT confirm that “some” of the PEN line models will not continue. To be less vague the rumor mill says the PEN-F line is at a dead-end. And the “no comment” from Olympus sounds like the rumor mill is spot on.
