Catching up with some rumors:

1. Zeiss will launch a new Batis 18mm lens in Spring (Source: Sonyalpharumors).
2. Fujirumors reports the new X-PRO 2 will have a 85fps EVF refresh rate
3. The PEN-F will be announced on January 27 and feature the Sony 20 MP sensor and cost 1499 Euro with the 14-42mm lens. (Source: 43rumors)

The PEN-F is a bit pricey…

Well it doens’t happen often that a huge store like Amazon leaks the product info before it actually gets announced. Fujirumors. spottedt that Amazon China lists the X-Pro2, XF100-400,  X70 and X-E2s at their site. There is also a wide angle converter for the X70 (WCL-X70) and an optical viewfinder (VF-X21 Original Fuji FUJIFILM external optical viewfinder )

Ok, now we know every single detail of all new Fuji cameras. Let’s move on to the X-T2 leaks :)

On January 27 Olympus will announce the new PEN-F camera featuring the Sony 20 Megapixel sensor and a new Epson EVF (specs yet unknown). As a little detail I got this from an Olympus source: They specifically developed the camera after the Fuji X-E/PRO success. It’s their bet to “revive” the somehow weak PEN sales. But I am yet not sure if Olympus is too late in the game now.  It realyl depends on price and features of the new cameras.

CES is over but we will see some more new stuff the coming weeks:

1. On January 15 Fuji will announce the X-PRO2, X-E2s, X70 and XF 100-400mm lens. Fujirumors reports the X-PRO2 will ship by end of January already!
2. Olympus will announce the new PEN-F on January 27.

P.S.: Sony will also announce a new A6100 sometimes between now and CP+

Those are the first images of the new X70 camera. It will be announced along the X-E2s and X-PRO 2 on January 15. The camera has a 18.5mm f/2.8 lens, a touch & flip screen, 16MP X-Trans sensor and EXRII processor + optional viewfinder.
