New rumors: Fuji 35mm APD and telephoto prime. Sony medium format.

The XF 56mm f/1.2 APD

Here are two new rumors:

Fuji (Source: Fujirumors):
In an interview Fuji confessed they are (or were) considering to make a new 35mm f/1.4 APD version just like they did with the 56mm APD. It’s unclear if they will make it.
What is definitely coming is a super telephoto prime!

Sony (Source: SonyAlphaRumors):
In an interview Sony didn’t deny the possibility to make a medium format camera. It’s not clear if this will be a fixed or interchangeable lens camera.
 

Sony patent adds focusing on all(!) manual lenses. Olympus working on QX style camera.

Here are two new patents from Sony and Olympus:

1) Sony patented a Z-shift moving sensor that can focus on all manual third party lenses! This means even an 40-50 year old lens can be used to autofocus. It’s not the lens that moves it’s the sensor! More at SonyAlphaForum.

2) Olympus will “copy” Sony’s lens-camera idea! Images showing a sort of Olympus version of the QX camera can be seen at Egami.
