Well, the new Fuji 6x7 folder was done in partnership with Cosina and Fuji (apparently) can only market it in Japan under the "Fujifilm" brand, so if the camera is ever sold overseas (fingers crossed) it may be branded as a Voigtlander Bessa III.

Or, since the machining is already there, maybe Cosina will produce its own version independent of Fuji.

But both of those scenarios depend on what the specifics of the agreement between Fuji and Cosina are.

Slight update, here's a blog I found in Chinese entitled "Bessa III will come". But it's just a blog.

pNut seems to think it will be as I stated above, just the "global" branding of the camera they made for Fuji.
