Sony isn’t going to announce any new photocamera for Photokina but there will be plenty of new FE lenses coming tomorrow (Sept 12) at 7am London time.
Sony US posted the teaser image you see above and saying there will be a “WOW” in glass. Let’s hope we will all be really “wowed” when we see those lenses tomorrow :)
The LX100 will look very close to the “old” LC1 you see here on top.
Panasonic is going to launch a little fixed lens compact camera on September 15! The new LX100 is said to have a large Four Thirds sensor with a bright and very useful 24-75mm f/1.7-2.8 lens! The camera is very compact and can record 4K video too! Still, we don’t know what the price will be…
And here are two more images of the other fixed lens compact from Fuji (via Digicameinfo). The Fuji X100t will be announced tomorrow (Sept 10):
As you can see from the official Photokina flyer image on top Samsung will have an official announcement on Monday September 15 at 12:00 Berlin time.
And I can tell you with a 100% certainty the NX1 can record 4K video. Now all what we still miss to see is a picture of the camera!
There is plenty of Olympus news today!

All that stuff (including the new 40-150mm 2.8 zoom) will be announced on September 15!
