Let’s hope this isn’t just a joke form those crazy Dutch guys. But the store fototuerlings.nl is already accepting preorders on the NX500!

The camera costs 999 Euro and has the following specs:

28M BSI CMOS sensor
Hybrid Auto focus system (phase detection + contrast AF) with 205 AF points
9 frames per second continuous shooting
New SMART option: GEO tagging, 4x faster Wifi connection, Bluetooth etc.
2.5K (Quad HD) movie
UHD Time Laps Video
Tilt flip-up Super AMOLED display with Touch
Dual control wheel

This morning we also spotted another camera named NX3300 which will be the new very entry level NX camera and cost 499 Euro (Source: Fotosemeins.nl). But that NX500 could really become a hotseller. NX1 sensor in a smaller and cheaper package…has to be great :)

SamsungCameraRumors got the final proof of a new Samsung NX camera that is coming at CP+. They spotted the name registration in China.

It’s pretty much obvious the camera is going to be announced before the CP+ show!

And the first images of the XQ2 compact camera have been leaked via Fuji France:

Fuji is going to announce a new X-A2 entry level X cameras. This is nto the rumored entry level X-T1 version but simply the current X-A1 successor. There will be also two OIS II version lenses and new compact cameras. This is the list of cameras/lenses coming at CP+:

– FUJIFILM X-A2
– FUJINON LENS XC16-50mmF3.5-5.6 OIS II
– FUJINON LENS XC50-230mmF4.5-6.7 OIS II
– FUJIFILM XQ2
– FinePix XP80
– FinePix S9900W
– FinePix S9800

Olympus did it with their OMD line. The E-M5 had a huge success and they therefore expanded the OMD line at the top (E-M1) and the bottom (E-M10).

And if Fujirumors is telling us the truth than this could happen with the X-T1 line too. FR says a new entry level X-T1 will be announced within the next couple of months.

There is yet no specific info about the camera but I think it could become a hotseller if Fuji doesn’t strip to many X-T1 features from it!

An official public Russian agency registered the name of soon to be announced Nikon and Fuji cameras:

Nikon will announce the J5 mirrorless system camera (and many other fixed lens cameras). Fuji will announce the FinePix XP80?S9800?S9900W, XP81?XP85?S9950W?S9850?S9750 fixed lens compact cameras.

All that stuff will be announced before the CP+ show that starts on February 12.

Thanks Digicameinfo for finding the news!
