A rendering of an imaginary Sony A9r posted at SonyAlphaForum.
The Sony A9 will be announced in February and be the first real Full Frame DSLR competitor. The mirrorless E-mount A9 will have all the things needed to be “PRO”:
– Worlds fastest autofocus in normal light conditions
– Close to 50MP FF sensor
– weather sealed body
The last bastion of DSLR market is now getting competition form the mirrorless world!
If you own one of the new cameras like the NX1, E-PL7, LX100, Leicas and so on than you should download the latest Adobe update which adds full RAW support to all those cameras:

Download DNG converter 8.7 for Windows (Click here) and Mac (Click here).
For the first time these two new “Photokina” high end products are shipping in USA:
Graphite Fuji X-T1 at BHphoto (Click here).
Zeiss 16-35mm FE at BHphoto (Click here).
And today’s Gold Box deal of the day is the up to %50 off on PNY SD cards at Amazon US (Click here).
As far as I know there will be certainly new product announcements from those companies right before the CP+ show start in Mid February:
Sony: New PRO E-mount FF (100% sure it’s coming), maybe a new APS-C E.mount (50%). And certainly the lenses that have been already presented at Photokina.
Olympus: New E-M6 (100%). Maybe also the 7-14mm PRO lens.
Panasonic: No news on cameras but the 30mm f/2.8 macro is coming.
Samsung: NX400 with NX1 sensor (100%)
Fuji: Not sure yet what’s coming but we have been told “something” is coming for sure.
I have no news about mirrorless stuff from Nikon Canon Sigma and Ricoh-Pentax.
SamsungCameraRumors (Click here) got their hands on some interesting NX1 sales details:
– Worldwide Sales (or preorders) of the NX1 are lower than expected
– Sales are high in some countries like Korea and Germany
More important there will be a price drop on the NX1 in January.

As we all know the new E-M6 will be announced in February. It will be the first Olympus camera recording 4K and it replace the E-M5 which has now been discontinued. And today Olympus US dropped the price of the E-M5 down to $559 only (here at Amazon and here at GetOlympus).
