That’s why there’s a list of cameras that many videographers and photographers are waiting for, to experience the quality that is promised behind it. So, today we want to talk about a number of these cameras along with the leaked information about them. Let’s go!

Sony a7S III

Five years after its successful predecessor, Sony a7S III is one of the cameras we’re waiting for. There are predictions that say it might be released in the first half of 2020 with a price of less than $3000. The camera that could have a 15.3MP sensor, which is higher than the previous 12MP sensor of a7SII. they also say that we can expect to see DCI 4K capture at 60p and 4:2:2 10-bit internal recording on this camera.

Nikon Z9

As the following product to Nikon Z7, the Z8 will probably be the next successful camera of the company in 2020. Rumors say that Nikon Z8 will have better autofocus than D5 and it’s because of its advanced AI that can detect almost any subject, whether they’re faces, eyes, animals and lock on them. It will also have a 24MP sensor and a vari-angle LCD screen to assist in viewing. A mirrorless camera that feels like it worth waiting.

Leica S3

Another experience made by Germany to especially satisfy photographers probably from spring 2020. Leica S3 will have Leica ProFormat sensor, with 64-megapixel resolution, which is much higher than the 37.5 MP sensor of the S2. Its High sensor sensitivity up to ISO 50000 and Cine 4k video capability will also tell us that it serves the videographers as well. Although this camera is announced in 2018, it’s not released yet and as I said before we’re expecting it to come out in the spring of 2020 to see how meticulous it is.

DJI Phantom 5

A drone camera with an interchangeable lens possibility that is in the brick of being just a rumor. But for videographers, it’s an absolute joy to be able to capture 4k videos or maybe higher, while being capable of using the lens they want. But it all seems to be a rumor as well. DJI company has said nothing particular about Phantom 5 so far, but it hasn’t canceled the project too. It’s likely to get clear during this year.

Fujifilm X100V

It can be said that the X100 series of Fujifilm are the most successful cameras of the Japanese company. And now the fifth version of the series is available for pre-order, and it might worth buying as it features the Fujifilm’s latest 26MP X-Trans unit sensor. It’s capable of fast recording up to 120P, with 4k resolution, F-Log, and the Eterna film simulation capability. It also has an excelled autofocus comparing to the previous one, the X100F, and reliable face detection. So it will complement the series in some ways.
