The chinese folks at Zhongyi (aka Mitakon) spilled out what could become a real gem for the Micro Four Thirds world. An “almost” pancake sized 25mm f/0.95 lens! A sort of downsized [shoplink 300282 ebay]Voigtlander Nokton 25mm lens (here on eBay)[/shoplink].

Sony to anounce the A6100 and new E-mount lenses on Friday!

We just ave been told that Sony will not just announce a new E-mount camcorder this Friday! There is a high chance they will also introduce the A6100 and some new E-mount lenses too! It’s still unclear at the time of writing if the lens announcement is purely an updated roadmap or also some real product announcement with preorders and shipping info. I am working now to get more info about this…

You can follow the Sony livestream event live(!) here on Mirrorlessrumors at 9.00 (9am) Amsterdam time.

Samsung NX1 Readers’ Test

A few weeks ago the German Systemkamera Forum has conducted a readers’ review of the Samsung NX1: Nine forum members tested the Samsung top camera in all photographic fields. The result is a lot of praise and excitement, especially regarding speed and autofocus.
Some of the testers critized some aspects about the 4k video functionality, most of them already fixed with the last firmware update.

Although the test is in German the images speak for themself:
