FWIW, here's the entry on SAR: https://www.sonyalpharumors.com/leaked-image-of-the-new-sony-fe-12-24mm-f2-8-gm-lens/ ...which ties the rumour in to speculation about two new FF cameras (one ...

The FE 200-600mm is a great lens, but FWIW, it's not designated GM. It's part of the G series.

I agree that there are other possible causes. That's why my first post in this thread included the sentence: "There are other possible causes, some of which have been mentioned, but this is ...

Sure - if you were searching around for any reason to stay away from the system, you might just be able to enlarge this into enough of a phantom menace. Otherwise it's a minor and mostly irrelevant ...

From the DPR article about the Lens Rentals findings: (1) "...Roger says he was amazed to realize ‘the cameras really didn’t show much disfunction.’ He elaborates: ‘If you had just shown me the pictures ...
