Fuji just announced that they will launch a new interchangeable mirrorless system in Spring 2012. There are no info yet about specs and price. There is only a general statement saying that Fuji’s goal is to archieve the highest image quality possible. Sounds like they could go Fullframe or am I crazy? :)
Nikon PR guys really messed it up by stating on facebook (Click here) that “A photographer is only as good as the equipment he uses“. I am sure this is not what Nikon really thinks, but that PR gy really should take some leasosn form real Photographers to learn that it is the perosn behind the camera the key for good photography!

Canon customers received a survey asking questions about mirrorless cameras! The survey is available here but you need an access code: http://advisorypanel.vovici.net/se.htm. Anyway, the guys over at Canonrumors managed to get some screenshots of the survey.
What will be the result of the poll? The results will be kept secret by Canon Managers but the result will be one only. It is inevitable, Canon will make a mirrorless camera. Don’t be shy Canon! :)
