Sony’s next Alpha camera gets rumored launch date – and it could have an unusual EVF feature
May 12, 2025
Details are scarce but Sony seems to have at least two new mirrorless cameras on the way
Rumor story claims May 28 announcement 'confirmed'
New launch will be an E-mount mirrorless camera, possibly with tilting EVF
Two camera models recently registered by Sony in China
Is Sony about to announce a new camera? Or maybe even two? The evidence is pointing that way, even if details are extremely thin on the ground.
Sony Alpha Rumors has today updated a short news story, adding ‘confirmation’ that the company will unveil a new E-mount mirrorless camera on May 28, 2025. As to what that camera might be, the story barely speculates – although it does say that it will not be a successor for the Sony A7 IV.
We’ve long suspected that a new Sony A7 model is on its way, however, and the fact that the price of the current Sony A7 IV, released back in 2021, has recently dropped to record lows strongly suggests that something is in the offing. So, we’re still expecting a new baseline full-frame model from Sony to be announced this year – just maybe not as soon as May 28.

A view to a tilt
While the piece is light on detail, Sony Alpha Rumors’ story does mention that the new camera may feature a reworked ‘tilting EVF design’. Tilting viewfinders are a rarity on mirrorless cameras, but we have seen them before – perhaps most notably on the 2018-released Panasonic Lumix GX9.
