ep48 - Camera Predictions 2025 – What Do We Expect From BMD, Canon, DJI, FUJIFILM, Nikon, Panasonic, Sony?

This week, Johnnie and Nino dare a long, hard look into the crystal ball to speculate and ponder about the cameras and lenses that they expect to be released in 2025. What are the big news we expect from Blackmagic Design, Canon, DJI, FUJIFILM, Nikon/RED, Panasonic, Sigma and Sony?

As you might now, CineD rarely speculates about unannounced products, but the beginning of the year is a good excuse to make an exception to that rule: There are a few cameras from various manufacturers that have been long-expected. For example, when can we expect an update to the Sony FX line, whether it’s a successor to the FX9, FX6, or FX3? Or a Sony a7S III? Or will we see the long-rumoured DJI camera sometime this year?

In this extensive talk, Nino Leitner and Johnnie Behiri dive deep into a mixture of well-founded expectations and probably also a little wishful thinking about what’s to come in both cameras and lenses this year.
