The German magazine ColorFoto spoiled the details of the new Panasonic and Olympus lenses. Panasonic will announce the lens on January 5 and Olympus the day after.

And here are the very first pictures of the new Fuji X-E2s (Source: Fujirumors). And that’s going to be a quite weird new entry. It’s actually an X-E2 with some “software” related improvements. We got an Electronic shutter, new AF-system that are not “hardware” improvements but all achieved thanks to better software.

I am curious how Fuji will “Justify” that camera when it gets released on January 15.

Our Japanese friends from Digicameinfo spotted the list of Nikon compact cameras that will be announced at CES. The cameras got officially registered by Nikon on Postel. There are no specs known so far but some of those cameras may feature a larger (1 inch Sony?) sensor.

Fujirumors leaked the image and specs of the new XF100-400mm F4.5-5.6 OIS WR lens. The lens will be announced on January 15 (just like the X-PRO 2). Those are the lens specs:
– minumum focus distance from 1.75 m.
– Zoomed out, it will be 270mm long, while on the wide end it will be about 6cm shorter.
– Filter size 77.
– Design: 21 elements 14 groups.
– weight 1375g and have
– Should cost around €1,800

Panasonic will announce a new TZ100 compact camera with 1 inch 20MP sensor (from Sony) and a huge 25-250mm lens. The camera will be announced the 5th of January right at the CES show start. Panasonic will also display a pre-final version of the 100-400mm Leica MFT lens.

Those are the very first images of the new Fuji X-PRO 2! The camera will be announced on January 15. Thanks Fujirumors for leaking those!

By the way: The “old” X-PRO 1 now sells for $499 only at Amazon US. Not bad…

As a Christmas present Fujirumors leaked the first real world image of the new X-PRO2. And he added some funny image on the LCD screen :)
