Having spent 5,000 dollars on the camera, why would you go third party unless Sony doesn’t make these accessories. My hypothesis is that those who can afford this camera can also afford original Sony accessories, given how much of a good to have camera it is. That said, I’m also drooling over it.
Your hypothesis isn't so great
I have the camera.... and have tried multiple brands of accessories.
I had the IDS, OEM Sony, and two different Chinese Thumb Grips. They all have their pluses and minuses. The one I'm using now is the Iborrys, very similar to Sony OEM shape... and way less money.
As for the hand grip...I tried the Sony, IBorrys JJC and one other settled on the JJC. The JJC has a built in Arca Swiss plate... which is the main reason I kept it.
