Tokina is rumored to announce a new ultra-wide-angle zoom lens for APS-C cameras – maybe 11-16mm or 11-20mm replacements?

Sony has a new registration in Asia for a GP-VPT2BT shooting grip with built-in Bluetooth remote control:

Of course the Olympus PEN line is not dead: here is the upcoming E-PL10 camera

By PR admin | Published: October 11, 2019

I have been reporting for a while that Olympus is going to announce a new, small and light Olympus PEN MFT camera:

“The dates are a bit off, but I think it is safe to assume that Olympus will announce a new PEN camera in 2019 in addition to the already rumored Olympus E-M1X” (January 2019)
“I have been reporting for a while that Olympus is rumored to announce a new smaller MFT camera in 2019” (February 2019)
“I have been reporting for a while that Olympus is rumored to announce a new, small and light Olympus MFT camera” (again February 2019)
“Olympus also confirmed that we can expect a new smaller and lighter camera for their 100th anniversary on October 12th, 2019” (February 2019)
“I have reported that before already – I think Olympus will release another PEN camera.” (October 8th)

Here are the first leaked pictures of the upcoming Olympus PEN E-PL10 camera (IM019?) that will replace the current E-PL9 model – obviously the reports about the PEN line being discontinued were completely wrong:

Coming soon: DJI Mavic Mini drone (or ARYA?)

By PR admin | Published: October 10, 2019

A new DJI drone will be announced soon under the name ARYA in Australia. This is most likely the already leaked DJI Mavic Mini that in some market could be called ARYA (unless DJI has 2 new drones or ARYA is just a code name). Here are the specs I received today:
