Sony will not be part of the 2019 Photo Plus show

By PR admin | Published: September 11, 2019

There were some “rumors” that Sony will have a new camera on display at the 2019 Photo Plus show… Well, this will be kind of hard because from what I can see Sony will not take part in the 2019 Photo Plus show. Sony is not listed at the official 2019 Photo Plus website and I don’t see a Sony booth at the 2019 show floor plan. If I am not mistaken, Sony had the biggest booth at the last PhotoPlus show. Leica first dropped out of the show back in 2017 and I think there will be more companies dropping out in the future.
