Olympus officially registered a new camera. And Sony officially confirms more APS-C gear will come this year.

Olympus:
Olympus registered a new camera in Asia. This is likely to be a new OMD model (E-M5III or E-m1III). For sure this is NOT a PEN-FII because this line seems to have been killed by Olympus :(
The new OMD will be announced during the second half of the year.

Sony:
Sony confirmed it’s committment to the APS-C line in an interview released at DC.watch. They also made it clear new APS-C products will be released in 2019 and that “high end” APS-C is also a priority.

Still one more announcement to come from Sony….

Yesterday we had announcements from Fuji, Canon and Nikon. But there is still one more announcement ahead of us: Sony will announce new E-mount lenses before the start of the WPPI show (which opens on Feb 25).

For sure we can expect to get a new 135mm f/1.8 GM lens. There is likely going to be no camera announcement. A new E-mount mirrorless and a new RX0II will be announced in Q2 (between April and June).
