Nokishita confirmed that Canon will soon announce the new 32mm f/1.4 STM lens. Like I told you yesterday there is a big Canon mirrorless event on September 4-5. They might announce the development of the new FF mirrorless too!
Nikon managers released various interview in Japan (Mynavi and DCwatch). And Nikon’s goal is clear: They want to expand the line up in both direction…higher and lower end models. The big question is if the lower end model will feature an APS-C sensor. I would prefer lower end models to still have an FF sensor. Otherwise Nikon would have to launch a new APS-C lens line too and it would mean another 2-3 before we get enough lenses.
Of course expect higher end models to have the dual slot card just liek this model:
:)
First: It’s confirmed that on September 4-5 Canon will announce something “mirrorless”. But it’s unclear yet if they will announce a new lens for the current EOS-M cameras or if they will also disclose some info about the future Full Frame mirrorless.
And today we can share first rumored Canon Full Frame mirrorless specs we got via Canonwatch:
It may be that Canon will announce some kind of FF mirrorless development only at Photokina just like Nikon did months ago. Maybe Canon will take some time to evaluate the Nikon Z impact on the public and try to not repeat some of the Nikon’s mistake (like poor AF performance and crippled FPS rate).
Both Sony and Fuji are rumored to launch their new High End APS-C cameras:
1) Fujirumors reports the X-T3 will shoot 20fps, 4k60p and 10bit!
2) SonyAlphaRumors reports the new A7xxx will be a mini-Sony A9 (also shooting at 20fps).
Both cameras should be announced soon before the Photokina start!
In the midst of the Nikon news storm Zeiss keeps teasing the launch of a new camera. SAR reports:
– Announcement before Photokina
– This is a fixed lens Full Frame camera
– It uses Sony tech (probably RX1II based).
– Price around $3,000
– Priobably has a prime lens (35mm f/2.0?)
– Slightly bigger lens construction than you get on the Sony RX1 series.
– lens is autofocus
I would love if this would feature some sort of new curved sensor!
From left to right you can see the new Nikon 24-70mm Z lens, the Noct 58mm f/0,95 and the Zeiss 50mm f/1.4.
Nikoneye.com reports that Nikon unofficially confirmed the 58mm f/0,95 manual focusing Z lens will cost around $6,000. This is what Nikon managers told to Japanese reporters present at the Tokyo presentation.
