Fotodiox launches five new GFX adapters for Contax, Mamiya 645 Nikon F, Canon EF and Olympus OM lenses

Fotodiox announced five new adapters (Click here) for the Fuji GFX camera. One of the adapter allows you to use the great [shoplink 303751 ebay]Mamiya 645 lenses (here on eBay)[/shoplink]. The other four adapt FullFrame lenses and I wonder which one of these actually works fine on the GFX.

Anyway, there are even more adapters coming from Fotodiox as you can see from that image shared by Fujirumors:

Cancellation of release of the DL series of premium compact cameras

The rumors written by other rumor sites that the Nikon DL would start shipping in march were plain wrong :(
Instead Nikon issue that note today:

Cancellation of release of the DL series of premium compact cameras

February 13, 2017

TOKYO – Nikon Corporation announced today that sales of the long-awaited DL series of premium compact camera, the DL18-50 f/1.8-2.8, DL24-85 f/1.8-2.8, and DL24-500 f/2.8-5.6, will be canceled.

A June, 2016 release was originally planned for the DL series. However, with the identification of issues with the integrated circuit for image processing, release of the three cameras was delayed indeterminately.

Since then, everyone involved has worked very hard to develop products with which our customers will be satisfied. However, it has been decided that sales of the DL series will be canceled due to concerns regarding their profitability considering the increase in development costs, and the drop in the number of expected sales due to the slow-down of the market.

We sincerely apologize to all those affected by this decision, especially those customers who waited so long for the cameras to be released, retailers and others whose business will be affected, for the inconvenience this decision may cause.
