Fuji X-T1 is said to have the best EVF on market!

Fujirumors got some bits about the new Fuji X-T1. The camera will be announced in late January and it is said to have the best Electronic Viewfinder on market yet. And “anyone thinking of getting an OM-D should hold off until the end of the month. So worth the wait.

Sounds like a hell of a camera. Hope they fix the slow autofocusing too!

APS-C Leica T type 701 to be announced in April?

A couple of weeks ago Digicameinfo reported the registration of the name “Leica T type 701” in Taiwan. This is likely a new interchangeable and mirrorless system. According to Leicarumors the camera will be launched in April and feature an APS-C sensor.

As far as we know the prime lenses will be made by Leica in Germany. The camera body and the zooms will be made by Panasonic (and sold with Leica name).

Fuji X-Ti coming in two weeks!

According to Fujirumors there will be a new Fuji X-T1 announcement in two weeks (end of January). It will be an SLR alike designed X-mount camera with addtitional battery grip and shutter release. It uses the same sensor of the X-E2 and has an extra large EVF. It is likely to use a double SD-card slot and it has a weather sealed body. Price will be in between the X-E2 and X-PRO1.

Sounds like a great camera!

Panasonic shows a GH 4K mockup at CES show in Las Vegas.

Giulio Sciorio from SmallCameraBigPicture took this picture of a Panasonic GH camera having 4K video recording feature. It is on show at CES in Las Vegas. There are no other details coming a long that image but I am pretty sure this is a mockup and not a prototype or final version of the camera.

I guess that “4K” will be the big marketing word for 2014. Also Sony is supposed to launch 4K mirrorless cameras this year.

UPDATE: New Fuji X-W1 gets leaked by Fuji Photographer (and he says it’s fake)

What a surprise! Photographer Dominik Fusina first posted the full clear picture of the new Fuji X-W1 on facebook and today admitted he created a FAKE :( The full size pic can be seen here: https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=741542789208619&set=a.508861135810120.130927.412285615467673&type=1&theater

UPDATE: More pictures have been posted on his website: http://photo.fusina.net/news-Exclu__des_images_du_futur_FUJI_serie_X_-77.html

Don’t know what to think about the design. Looks quite non proportional to me and it somewhat reminds me of the new Nikon DF.
