Tipster spotted a photographer from Sandisk who was using a bit big A7 series camera. The camera model name and the lenses he was using at the moment was masked with tape to not show. Let’s break the entire information into the major points
Sony A9 / Upcoming flagship Details – According to the tipster
According to the tipster the upcoming camera is having bit more heavy grip compared to the current A7 series camera.
The size and shape of the camera is pretty big as compared to the current A7 series cameras you can relate it with Canon 1dx mark 2, not as big as that but somehow similar to that camera.
Joystick control
Unable to see the SD card slots of the mirrorless camera, But why looking externally he feels that there is a place for to SD cards
Source claim that the camera can capture 14 frames per second continuous shooting speed. As he was able to guess that is speed by hearing the continuous burst sound of the camera which is quite unbelievable.
He also silently confirms the presence of 16-35mm f/2.8 GM and 100-400mm FE lens with the photographer.
The source is new and No Rock-solid information coming from the source. But, the joystick information is big catch and it will sure add a new dimension of extended control in Sony A7 series camera.

It’s look like Someone spotted Sony A9 camera in the wild, according to a reader of the SAR website the upcoming Sony A9 camera may carry a 72MP fullframe sensor, dual card slots, a joy stick on the rear side of the camera and a slightly larger body compared to current A7R II.
As reported by a anonymous reader :
Walking through battery park Manhattan around 5:35pm, I came across someone walking towards 1 world trade, with a graphite looking camera with no markings or paint in a slightly larger and boxier shape than my a7r ii, when I realized it was too large to be a Fuji XT1 but too small to be a Leica T, I looked closer and noticed the user (short chubby guy with red goatee) was using a Sony GM 24-70mm 2.8 lens on the body. The photographer was pretty uncomfortable when I started asking questions. But I can say this. It was in fact a Sony A9(?!?) proto type, it is slightly larger than the A7Rii however it does not have a built in battery grip. Good things are it does have dual card slots, definitely sd maybe cfast, I really don’t know much about different cards, but he did say it has 2. It has a joystick for autofocus point moving. But most importantly, when he showed me the joystick, the spot where it would say 42M on my a7rii, it said Extra Fine 72M!! He said this was one of a few prototypes out there and that it was due out end of summer for early fall release (can’t say this is real or not). I know I am not a source or anything, but this thing was legit!!!
More thing are coming out of fog as multiple confirmations are coming from different sources. Today we got confirmation that one of the prototypes of the camera features a 72MP FF Sensor inside.

From specification POV the Sony A9 look like a perfect camera for professional. The Sony A9 is said to be a new series of camera and above the current A7 series. That clearly means upcoming A9 camera isn’t a successor of Sony A7R II camera.
