According to Chinese source E88_888 (translated) the ZV-E10 Mark II camera sale is not going well in the USA and their successful strategy of creating a Highly popular Vlogging camera is halted or you can say it has failed this time to impress the consumer base, and means that ZV series lost its effectiveness to impress the consumer base out there.
The ZV-E10 Mark II camera’s price is somewhat close to the Sony A6700 camera, but it lacks the AI processing unit as well as sensor-shift image stabilization. Additionally, it doesn’t support the video frame rates available in the A6700 camera. Sony has crippled many of the specifications inside the ZV-E10 Mark II camera to protect the sales of the A6700 camera. At the same time, due to its high price tag, the camera was not able to directly replace its predecessor, the ZV-E10, whose sales are still going well.
It looks like Sony’s strategies have failed this time to read out the actual requirements of consumers out there.

According to the latest information from Chinese sources, the upcoming Sony A75 camera will have a crop in 4K 60fps mode for a unique reason. Let us see the reasoning in their own words.
Cross-checking the information:
All professional cameras like the SONY FX9, BURANO, and VENICE 2 8K, which don’t use the IMX510 sensor, have 60fps cropping. I don’t think the A7M5 will generously offer uncropped 4K/60fps, even with pixel binning and downsampling, it’s impossible.
Facts
- Yes, the Sony FX9 has a crop when shooting in 4K 60FPS mode. The camera uses a 6K full-frame sensor but crops to Super 35mm mode (approximately a 1.5x crop) when recording in 4K at 60FPS.
- No, the Sony VENICE 2 8K does not have a crop when shooting in 4K 60FPS mode. The sensor supports oversampling from 8.6 to 4K, or you can window in the camera to output 4K
So, the fact is something else, we cannot believe this information that the camera will surely have a crop. But sure we will analyze in our upcoming articles the type of sensor that the Sony A7V camera may use, but let us consider these situations
Types of Options SONY HAVE RIGHT N O W
IF Sony uses the Stacked version of the 33MP sensor, OR 30MP IMX554 and 48.9MP IMX313 stacked sensors, allowing the Sony A7 IV camera to capture images at HFR and uncropped 4k 60FPS videos. Other options that create the possibility of keeping the 4k 60FPS crop mode active by using the 40.2MP A7R IIIA sensor in the upcoming camera, OR maybe they can use a 55MP IMG409 in A7V camera.
So, of course, we have a lot of options out there, The best is Sony should use a 30MP IMX554 stacked CMOS sensor in their upcoming camera
State one more piece of information coming.

The ZV-E10 II’s internal hardware has been improved from its predecessor with an upgraded 26-megapixel (MP) (approx. effective) Exmor R™ CMOS sensor and adoption of Sony’s latest BIONZ XR™ image processing engine. A few additional updates to this model include improved autofocus and video capturing capabilities: Cinematic Vlog Settingii, a new vertical format user interface (UI), an upgraded large-capacity Sony Z battery for improved stamina and improved connectivity for easy live streaming and data transfer. Staying true to the ethos of the ZV Series, this camera has been redesigned to streamline the content creation process even further, enabling creators to focus less on camera settings and more on their art and creativity. It is compact and lightweight and fits into a creator’s hand with ease, weighing in at approximately 377 gramsiii.

We are continually evolving our technology to help creators of all skill levels bring their visions to life.”

This feature automatically adjusts the aspect ratio, frame rate, and AF transition speed to optimal settings for cinematic video capture.

As per the latest information, the Sony A9 Mark II camera has been discontinued and has been delisted in most Japanese online camera stores, including the Sony Japan official online store. It will soon be discontinued worldwide as soon as the stock lasts or as soon as the stock by plans gets depleted. This camera will be in a discontinued state all over the world very soon.
The Sony A9 Mark II was Sony’s second-generation camera released back in 2019. The camera used the BIONZ X image processor and was one of the best high-speed cameras of its time. However, right now we have the Sony A9 III, which was released at the end of 2023. It features a fully global shutter sensor and is one of the fastest cameras on the planet, without having a rolling shutter effect. Although its sales are not as good as those of the A9 II because the low-light performance of the A9 III is not as good as its predecessor, the A9 III’s global shutter sensor speed is unmatched. For those shooting wildlife and sports in perfect daylight conditions, will get the best image possible from this camera.

Sony A7 V camera is expected in late 2024, and we informed you back in May 2024 [Sony A7 V Coming in 2024 – Latest Rumors]. Now, other rumor websites are also suggesting an early announcement. Why are other rumor mills saying “they are expecting an early ann..” since they were first told that A7 V will arrive in 2025. Now they are fixing their rumor as they always do.
Sony A7 V Latest Rumors from Webio
Look at the Chinese rumor we have received right now:
Not long ago, Nikon released their brand new Z6 third-generation camera, the Z6III, which features the first “partially stacked” sensor. The new sensor improves FAST continuous shooting for both stills and videos at higher frame rates.
Many people are curious about this sensor. However, there have been recent rumors suggesting that Sony’s new A7 series camera might, possibly, use the same sensor as the Nikon Z6III. There are speculations that the Z6III, being a comprehensive mid-range model, directly competes with Sony’s A7 series, which might potentially accelerate the release of Sony A7V to some extent.
—— End of rumors —-
Do you think that Sony will use the Z6 Mark 3 camera’s Exmor sensor to resolve their speed readout issues and all that? I don’t think so because I don’t believe Sony will decrease the sensor resolution of their A7 V camera. They will likely update the A7 IV camera sensor with stacked TECH, AI chip, and a faster image processor.
