Notice and Apology For Supply of Digital Imaging Products

By Louis Ferreira | Published: December 7, 2020


Notice and apology for supply of digital imaging products
Thank you for your continued patronage of Sony products.

In the digital imaging category (Cyber-shot, α, Handycam, Action cam), it is expected that some models will not be able to supply enough to meet the demand due to the problem of parts supply, so it will take a while until the product is delivered. It may take some time.

[Products that take time to deliver]
-Digital SLR cameras: α6100 series

In addition, for certain models with tight supply, we have decided to suspend the acceptance of orders from distributors to us and the acceptance of orders from customers at Sony stores after December 3, 2020. It was. Regarding the resumption of order acceptance, we will consider while observing the status of parts supply and will inform you separately on the product information page.

[Products subject to order suspension]
・ Digital video camera: FDR-AX45, HDR-CX680
・ Action cam: FDR-X3000 / X3000R, HDR-AS300 / AS300R
・ Digital still camera: DSC-RX0M2

We deeply apologize for any inconvenience caused to our customers.

that’s all

This is probably the result of the fire we reported, which you can read about here.

Potential Component Shortage For Sony After Three-Day IC Component Factory

By Louis Ferreira | Published: December 6, 2020


Sony could run into component shortages after there was a devastating three-day fire at the Japanese high-end IC components factory AKM Semiconductor:

“A devastating three-day fire which broke out on October 20 at Japanese high-end IC components factory, AKM Semiconductor, is reported to be having serious ongoing supply impacts for several camera manufacturers.

The AKM Nobeoka fire burned uncontrolled for three days, destroying the factory. The impact across the audio and broader consumer electronics industry – including digital camera manufacture – is yet to be fully understood.

Inside Imaging has been told that Canon, Nikon and Sony have already pulled back support for Black Friday promotions ‘as there will be a shortage of stock due to fire in (the) Japan factory,’ according to the source.”
