A member of the Sony Alpha Club Thailand purchased a new Sony A6400 camera in an A6300 body. A very strange "mistake" given the fact that the new a6400 camera is not even shipping yet (shipping will start on February 28th).
Manufacturers are known for disguising new cameras in old bodies in order to test them in highly populated areas without generating any leaks.
From PentaxRumors: the new Ricoh GR III camera will be announced tomorrow at 5pm. Shipments in the US are expected in mid-March. The US price will be $899.95 (the GR II model is currently selling for $500).
From Nokishita: Ricoh is also expected to announce two other new compact cameras. There is also a new Ricoh R02020 digital camera registered online:
Nokishita confirmed that the previously rumored Canon PowerShot G5 X Mark II camera will be announced soon (replacement for the current Canon PowerShot G5 X model). The new model was recently registered online under the code name PC 2355. The product SKU is 3070C001. The rumored specifications are:
