Sony a9II Announcement Coming Very Soon: Updated

By Louis Ferreira | Published: October 3, 2019


According to Nokishita a famous international news site had a private post ready to go about the Sony a9II announcement, which could be as soon as today!

“An article about Sony’s announcement of α9ii on a famous international news site was previously registered in a private setting. There may be a draft, but it seems that preparations for the presentation are in progress.” – Nokishita

“Sony has started editing the product page for “ILCE-9M2.” Announcing soon?” – Nokishita

Generally, sites that cover camera announcements prep these kinds of NDA posts in their content management systems right before announcement, because people can come across them like Nokishita did in this instance. We should know more about the new Sony a9II shortly so stay tuned.

Sony to Release Six Types of Stacked CMOS Image Sensors with Global Shutter Function with Back-Illuminated Pixel Structure
Compact with Higher Precision and Speed in Recognition and Measurement to Accelerate the “Smartification” of Industrial Equipment

Tokyo, Japan — Sony Corporation announced today the forthcoming release of six new types of stacked CMOS image sensors with a global shutter function achieved using a back-illuminated pixel structure for industrial equipment applications.

These new sensors will be both compact and capable of high imaging performance without distortion of moving objects. They will employ Sony’s Pregius S — stacked CMOS image sensor technology, which comes with global shutter functionality made possible by Sony’s proprietary back-illuminated pixel structure, first announced in March 2019.

As automation and labor-saving measures are increasingly implemented in factories and logistics, machine vision cameras play an increasingly important role. The Sony’s new image sensors target these applications, delivering both compactness and superior imaging performance, with higher precision and speed in recognition and measurement, thereby contributing to improved productivity and the “smartification” of industrial equipment.

The Miami Street Photography Festival is fast approaching and I want to give readers notice that their submissions are coming to an end. The MSPF festival is a great event with some compelling prizes if you’re interested, plus it’s local to me so I try to attend the majority of the festivities every year so maybe I will get to see some of your work in person instead of in our groups.
