Except China... they certainly have their own price vs the world. Here in NZ we pay stupidly high prices vs the world since the beginning of the time, S1RII is like over US$4000 haha, R5II is actually cheaper than S1RII in here.

If the new entry camera Sony FX2 is costing $3500 I can't imagine how much price hike will FX3II gonna be. But they will be just US problems ha.

That price is with the new 24-60 which is not bad? Non of the other camera you mentioned do OG 60p so for OG users that is quite the moot point. But for general users who don't care about OG they certainly have more choices. Anyway with Panasonic there is always the fire sale after few months to a year, so for S1II I gonna wait for a year to see how much discount I can get. In the mean time I m rocking with S9 and S5II. Got them both cheap after the discount and free lens to boot (free 85mm 1.8 for NZ one)

Oh yeah definitely quite a number of them want 60P opengate so they export all kind of ratio.

Is this finally the FX3 killer?

Well they are gonna increase the price in general soon, maybe FX2 has taken the tariff in as account. https://photorumors.com/2025/05/15/significant-sony-price-increase-coming-on-may-19th/

Just when u thought S1II price is a bit excessive, Sony is upping the game with the same 33MP sensor but add $1000 extra for a new body.

Not FX3II consider they just released in FX3A, the next Sony release is the camera with tilt EVF

When I was reading the comment I double checked to see if I m in the right group, which I was. That post really irks the Sony shill in the group cause most of the comment is about the title or wait til Sony releases.

Just got the LP-E6P battery and it make R5C much less stressful lol, extra 30min of recording is quite nice so don't have constantly worry about the battery life.

Powershot V1 in China have hiked up the price to $1099 from RRP of $820.. crazy!

Does that makes the people rather travel outside US to buy the camera overseas instead? I've done it a few times as the price here is always outrageous

The price of S1RII is higher than R5II here (R5ii running on promo), that definitely makes it harder to attract new people except for the Lumix users.

Does it have black screen when recording internally and connect to hdmi out? On the V1 I definitely saw black screen when connected to the screen which is a shame, but this R50V seems to have latest codec from R5II and not based in previous one. This is the only thing that kept me from switching the E10II out at this stage til more info coming out (ie the bloody user manual! R50V can connect to usb-c as UVC webcam up to 4k60p which is nice, and can also be powered by the same usb connection, that solved the power issue for current cameras acted as webcam.

Its all APSC from Canon for Q1 this year, next Canon FF is R6III which will be announced in Q2, R3 sensor with 6K raw and 4k120p in S35.
