The image on tops shows you the new Fuji 56mm f/1.2 and 10-24mm f/4 lenses. It has been posted by Fuji and you can download the full new PDF here: http://www.fujifilm.com/products/digital_cameras/pdf/lenses_accessories_catalogue_01.pdf
And here is the new Fuji roadmap that includes the two new lenses:
Nikon is trying to appeal new customers by being the first to offer a mirrorless rugged camera. The new Nikon 1 AW1 comes along two new rigged lenses, the Nikkor 1 AW 10mm f/2.8 and 1 AW 11-27.5mm f/3.5-5.6 lenses. The AW marked cameras and lenses are water, shock, dust and freezeproof. The camera can go 15m under water! I think this could be a real hit for Nikon. Finally a camera that can be with you on any travelling conditions!

A Nikon 1 camera patent spotted by Nikonrumors.
After Fuji and likely Canon also Nikon will soon announce a new mirrorless cameras. Nikonrumors reports that Nikon will announce a new rugged 1 camera on Thursday morning (London time). No specs are known yet but it may be based on current Nikon 1 cameras.
I am still not sure about when exactly Canon will announce the new EOS-M cameras this week. Sony, Olympus and Panasonic will announce more stuff in October.
Quite unusual to see that many announcements in October! Today we have more reliable info about the next Fuji and Sony announcements:
1) Fujirumors reports that a new Fuji X-E2 camera will be announced on October 20.
2) SonyAlphaRumors reports that the Full Frame NEX-9 will be announced right before the PDN show in New York (around October 20).
We still have no specs to share but I am pretty sure these will leak out soon. For now let’s focus on the new Canon EOS-M announcement while Olympus will follow soon with a High End Compact Camera release.
After many many months of waiting and rumors we are finally close to the new Canon EOS-M cameras and lens announcement. According to muliple sources Canon has scheduled a press announcement for this week. And the chance is high that they will unveil the new Canon EOS-M camera(s) and lenses.
Latest rumor said that two new EOS-M camera will be announced. A cheaper model direct successor of the current model and a more high end camera with built-in EVF. And a telezoom could be announced too.
On September 17, at 5am London time Fuji will finally unveil the cheapest of all X-mount cameras, the X-A1! And I really don’t think we will have to wait much longer for a more “serious” new X-mount camera. Fuji has set one more announcement for late October. It’s going to be a nice time for Fuji lovers :)
According to multiple trusted sources a whole bunch of companies is going to launch new products in October. We are talking about Sony, Canon, Fuji, Panasonic and Olympus. All announcements will be made right before or at the Photoplus Expo in New York.
I am working on a full list of camera and lenses that we could see by then. Stay tuned!
