A Full Frame mirrorless camera designed by David Riesenberg,
Well, I am sure Canon will release first "advanced" mirrorless system cameras in 2015. And Canon itself hinted the possibility to launch a completely new mirrorless mount system.
CanonWatch now reports that the launch of a 50 Megapixel Mirrorless Full frame camera is likely to happen in 2015.
I am yet not sure if that rumor is likely to become true or not. But we know Sony has a new A9 with high Megapixel sensor coming soon and I guess Canon knows that too...
From EOS-M to EOS-Madness? LOL :)

Sony should use A mount for their mirrorless system. Yes, it's a bit bigger but easier to make fast lenses. So it relativized it because good lenses for e maount are also very big and heavy.

Hopefully not yet another proprietary lens system.

I think Sony is limited also by the fact that the full frame sensor only just fits into the E-mount diameter. It's difficult to design a lens with large enough exit pupil for such mount, especially for fast and wide lenses. I see this as a serious...
CanonWatch reports:
have been told (thanks) that Canon Professional Services and Canon sale forces in Germany have informed various big German dealers that Canon HQs are recalling all EOS M models, but are letting all EF-M lenses in stores and branches. Dealers were told that Canon will address the EOS M in December. For the time being it looks as if it will be a development announcement rather than a last minute X-Mas surprise. If the rumor is reliable then Canon might getting serious about the EOS M system.
I’ve also been told that a CPS roadshow is scheduled for May 2015 to showcase new and important products Canon is going to announce in 2015, which possibly could be the rumoured professional cameras Canon may announce.
I also strongly believe Canon and Nikon will finally launch advanced mirrorless cameras during 2015. They cannot afford "to ignore" the mirrorless market anymore.

Both Sony and Canon will announce Full Frame cameras with around 50 Megapixel during the first quarter of 2015. Those cameras will likely be displayed at the CP+ show which starts in mid February.
The Sony 46 Megapixel FF camera will almost certainly be a new E-mount A7 (or A9?). It will feature an advanced autofocusing system based on the current A6000 hybrid af camera.
Canon is likely to announce a new DSLR with such a 50MP sensor. But there is a small chance Canon could use that sensor also on a new Full Frame mirrorless system camera.
I am 100% sure those kind of sensors are coming early 2015. We have an exciting time ahead of us!

That is a massive let down. Canon big teaser counter and full page advertising on the New York Times was made for a completely unexciting self-producing and self-publishing platform. There is one video on top and another one here if you want to see what it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtS39XS513I.
We will no more believe in any Canon teaser :)

I just checked the code - the Javascript counted down to 9 a.m. system time.
Set your system to NYC time and it starts counting again...If it counts to Canon USA HQ time (Melville, NY) we have still have to wait for 3:20 h.

In my time zone (-5) it says still about 4 hours left, was this timer fixed with added time or is yours still at zero?
Finally the giant is waking up form the long sleep and promises to get serious on the mirrorless front. In an interview at Dpreview Canon stated:
In the very near future you can expect us to show something in terms of mirrorless and also a higher resolution sensor.
Sounds like they are going after the Sony A7r!!!

Canon sensors are about 5 years behind Sonys. They need to get serious period not just about mirrorless.
We got word from an anonymous source that Sony will announce the new Sony A7000 at CES in early January. And it will cost $699 body only which is only $50 more than the current A6000 price. But I guess A6000 price will drop $50-100 til January...
I got this rumor from a very good Samsung source:
Not sure they'll succeed in doing this, but at nx team they are doing their best to get the nx400 ready for the cp+ show in February.
Confirmed the same sensor and AF system as nx1. No weather sealing, smaller buffer (but much bigger than older models).
Would certainly be nice if it becomes true!
It's a long time we are all waiting to get a proper X-PRO 1 successor. I guess the camera will be finally announced during 2015. Fujirumors is spilling out first rumors about the camera:
- APS-C sensor (TS + ASwN + AS)
– 24MP sensor (ASwN) – More than 16MP (ASwN)
– available early/first half of 2015 (NeS)
– tilt screen (AS)
– WiFi (AS)
– Non organic ASP-C X-Trans sensor (ORS)
– Price about 20% to 30% more expensive than the X-T1 (AS)
(TS= trusted source / NeS =New Source / AS = Anonymous Source / AswN = anonymous source with nick-name / SRP = source who was right in the past, but not yet trusted / ORS = other rumor sites)

That is likely the most exciting new compact camera launched at Photokina. And it's...a smartphone! The Panasonic CM1 has a 1 inch(!) sensor inside and a gorgeous little 28mm f/2.8 Leica lens on it. It's going ot be sold in France and Germany only but I think this could become a real hotseller everywhere! So hurry Panasonic, launch worldwide preorders as soon as it gets!
After many months of work and lot of issues to solve our first beta of the new MirrorlessRumor theme is online.
The first thing you have to know is that this isn't just a redesign. We completely rethinked the way a rumor site should work!
What I learned from these years on MirrorlessRumors is that:
1) There are many mirrorless camera owners that have the knowledge and passion to share interesting news. They can finally do that directly without having to contact the administrators!
2) For me (the admin) it is impossible to be online 24h per day. And with your help I can avoid to miss important news or rumors. This will keep the site always up to date.
That's why:
From now on this becomes a community where everyone can post directly news and rumors! To do so you are kindly invited to become a member of this site. Check out what you can do by clicking on the Member Panel you see on top right of the site (it shows only after your registration and login).
How it works and what you can do:
1) You can submit articles that will be reviewed by our admins (for now this is just...me). If approved they will get online.
2) You can comment articles
3) You will get votes for approved posts (100 points) and 1 point for every like on your posts or comments (or -1 point if someone dislikes)
4) If you want and I can trust you...than you can ask to become an admin. As admin you can write posts without my moderation and review other members articles.
What do you gain by joining the community?
1) You can promote your work, your sites and let the community know who you are! You are free to write post and link back to your Blog and Portfolios. Use MR to get known!
2) Less trolls. Now only approved members can comment and heavy trolls will be first warned and eventually kicked out if they don't follow the very basic rules of respect.
...and many more "reasons" to join will be online soon!
Remember:
This is just a very early beta. We need to launch the site as it is to check out if everything works fine before we do keep adding features. So please, join the site, try the features and I hope you will like what we have done so far!
Thanks a lot!

Noncho, I agree with you. Once again Canon brings something that is already past due. First the G1X, then the Sony G7X, and now this. Rather disappointing.
I prefer previous rumors for 24-200mm f/1.4-2.0...
600 divided by 28 is smaller than 24. I believe the correct equivalent focal length of this camera's lens is 24-600mm, don't you think?
