Olympus
It’s less than two months to go until the big announcement time by end August. There will be plenty of new mirrorless cameras coming right before the IFA show in Berlin. One of them is certainly the new Olympus OMD camera. For now rumored specs do say that it will retain the same sensor, same EVF and same form factor as the E-M5. But like the new E-P5 it will have 1/8000 shutter and Built-in WiFi. An interesting new fearure is the 81 AF points system which suggest that the 16MP sensor may contain some extra phase detection pixels. (Source: Photorumors).

Fuji
There are three more X cameras to come. One interchangeable entry level X camera (yes cheaper than the X-M1) and two fixed lens X cameras. One of them shoudl be the X-30 with a larger than 1 inche sensor and placed to compete against the new Sony RX100MII. (Source: Fujirumors).

Reminder:
Panasonic will announce the GX7, Sony the new NEX-7 successor. Everything coming in late August!
