We saw the big Samsung 300mm lens prototype a couple of hours ago but Bigger is better isn’t it? Fuji now displayed a 140-400mm huge XF zoom on their Photokina booth! And those are the lens specs:

– 140-400 1:4-5.6 R LM OIS WR
– filter mount: 86mm
– weather resistant
– coming in 2015

There is also a mockup of the XF 16-55 f/2.8 has no OIS:

And an image of the roadmap (via ePhotozine):

A Fuji Hands-on report with pictures can be read at Admiringlight.

That is likely the most exciting new compact camera launched at Photokina. And it’s…a smartphone! The Panasonic CM1 has a 1 inch(!) sensor inside and a gorgeous little 28mm f/2.8 Leica lens on it. It’s going ot be sold in France and Germany only but I think this could become a real hotseller everywhere! So hurry Panasonic, launch worldwide preorders as soon as it gets!

The image on top shows you the new BEST compact and fixed lens camera ever made. It dethrones the Sony RX100III by far! Amazing camera! Here are all info:
