CanonWatch spotted that Canon Netherland teaser showing a new soon to be announced superzoom and large sensor compact camera. I guess it will feature the same Sony 20,1 MP 1 inch sensor as the G7x. And it will compete against the RX10 and FZ1000 cameras.
Both Sony and Canon will announce Full Frame cameras with around 50 Megapixel during the first quarter of 2015. Those cameras will likely be displayed at the CP+ show which starts in mid February.
The Sony 46 Megapixel FF camera will almost certainly be a new E-mount A7 (or A9?). It will feature an advanced autofocusing system based on the current A6000 hybrid af camera.
Canon is likely to announce a new DSLR with such a 50MP sensor. But there is a small chance Canon could use that sensor also on a new Full Frame mirrorless system camera.
I am 100% sure those kind of sensors are coming early 2015. We have an exciting time ahead of us!
That is a massive let down. Canon big teaser counter and full page advertising on the New York Times was made for a completely unexciting self-producing and self-publishing platform. There is one video on top and another one here if you want to see what it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtS39XS513I.
We will no more believe in any Canon teaser :)

CanonWatch spotted that important Canon teaser posted on the New York Time! For weeks now it’s rumored Canon will announce a new High Megapixel camera. And Canon itself also said they could launch a new “mirrorless” mount system. So maybe a serious FF mirrorless is finally coming for real?
I believe that’s a “normal” DSLR camera with around 50MP. But I hope to be proved wrong :)
This is the teaser text:
THIS MESSAGE GOES
OUT TO FEAR, DOUBT,
LOGIC AND REASON.
To excuses, distractions, procrastination, inertia, critics, cynics,
realists, pessimists, resistance, conventional wisdom.
To the peanut gallery, the so-called experts, the good enoughs,
the urges to pass the buck,
the easy way out, the snooze button, the panic button,
and to that little voice in the back of your head that says,
“It can’t be done.”
To all of it, we apologize.
Because we don’t see what you see.
AT CANON, WE SEE IMPOSSIBLE

The first curved sensor camera is that “Selfie” Sony KW1 camera made for the Asian market.
A couple of months ago Sony announced that they had two curved sensors ready fro mass production. The first one is made for compact cameras and Mr.Aoki just confirmed the “weird” KW1 selfie camera is the first one using that!
The second curved sensor is Full Frame and now it’s really easy to guess it’s coming very soon! This should be the long time rumored Full Frame RX with 30+ Megapixel curved sensor and fixed lens 35mm f/1.8 Zeiss!

Almost a year ago the first rumor about a Samsung Black and White sensor camera surfaced. And it seems like the chance is getting higher and higher to see that for real! Photorumors reports a 20 megapixel NX300 monochrome camera could be announced soon. The camera basically uses the same 20 Megapixel sensor of the current NX300 but gets rid of the color array and AA filter.
That camera would be the first monochrome (non-Leica) mirrorless camera on market. And I certainly like the idea to have such a camera in my bag!
Once again Fuji confirmed they have no intentions to challenge Sony on the Full Frame front yet. Mr Iida (picture on top) from Fuji releases some info about the future strategy in an interview at Dpreview.
The focus from now on will be on offering higher resolution APS-C sensors with increased High-ISO performance and speed. And while Fuji will always focus on the still aspects of the camera they recognize they will have to offer a better video quality too.
The next Fuji X camera to be released should be the X-PRO 2. But there is still no word about when this is going to ahppen in 2015.
