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 :)

Panasonic is going to announce the full S1H specs on August 27. A source at L-rumors.com spilled out his info:
The officially Panasonic unveiled specs are:
And he also said this about the updated S lens roadmap:
1) Panasonic will announce the new 24-70mm f/2.8and 70-200mm f/2,8 in a month or so,
2) 16-35 f/4.0 end of this year.
3) Panasonic will announce seven new S lenses in 2020!
So far Panasonic seems to have failed to make meaningful sales of their new system (at least that ‘s what big store owners tell me). That’s why Panasonic US greatly reduced the price of the two S cameras:
$700 off on the Panasonic S1R at Amazon, Adorama and BHphoto.
$300 off on the Panasonic S1 at Amazon, Adorama and BHphoto.
