Between Photokina 2018 and now Nikon and Canon had their big time with many new camera and lens releases for their newborn mirrorless systems. But now Sony is definitely ging to answer big! As reported by SonyAlphaRumors Sony has now registered two new cameras and a new lens:

• WW245025 (probably a new RX or Cybershot camera)
• WW716189 (probably a new very High End E-mount camera which I believe could be the A9II)
• Sony 35mm f/1.8 FE lens (SEL35F18F).

And there is likely to be more new lenses and probably even more camera to come this autumn!

L-rumors reports:

I am receiving first whispers about a possible September press event. We could get the full SH1 specs and pricing info plus the two new 24-70 and 70-200 f/2.8 S lens release….

Solid sources told Fujirumors that Fuji will launch the new X-PRO 3 in September/October. There are no rumored specs yet. All they know so far is that the camera will be made in Japan. It’s also repoted that the camera will have a tilt screen.

We got two lens news for Sony E-mount folks:

1) This week Tamron will finally announce the 17-28mm pricin (999 Euro) and shipment start (late July)
2) Sigma will soon announce a new 35mm f/1.2 FE autofocus lens. This will be the fastest autofocus FE lens ever made and also the first designed for mirrorlesss only (no DSLR version coming for this)

The Panasonic S1H had two weak spots when it was announced:

1) It has that big fan you see on the image on top
2) It was rumored to have no IBIS

Well, at last point 2 got debunked! As reported by L-rumors the Panasonic S1H will have IBIS!

Now we have to see if that fan will not make too much noise when recording video :(

Leica officially announced the new M-E camera. It’s basically a Leica M camera that can do video :)

Thanks to its exceedingly high resolution and light sensitivity, the Leica M-E delivers photographs imbued with the classic ‘Leica look’, characterized by a unique bokeh rendition. Owners of the new Leica M-E are also able to apply this distinctive quality to their moving images: the Leica M-E features a 1080p, full-HD movie mode — allowing you to capture stunning videos using a dedicated recording button, adding yet another dimension to your creative pursuits.
