Hastalosmegapixeles (Click here) checked the full World Press Photo winner list and noticed that about 90% of the pictures have been taken with DSLR cameras. Only 3% with Mirrorless, and 7% with rangefinder or film cameras.

There is still a long way to go for Mirrorless System Cameras before they become as popular as DSLR. But the first goal has been achieved already: On a pure tech level cameras like the Fuji X-T1 and Olympus E-M1 are on par with the best APS-C DSLR cameras.

Our reader “Zetton” sent us this pictures of the new Ibelux 40mm f/0.85 and Ibegon 12mm f/2.8 lenses. The Ibelux is the fastest native  mirrorless system camera lens to date and will ship for $2,000 in March. The Ibegon will cost a bot over $600 but launch date is unknown yet.

Fuji manager Toshihisa Iida has been interviewed by the Dpreview team. And these are the interesting things he mentioned:

– X-T1 preorders are twice as high as expected

– Focus is on high end market. Low end market is only important in Asia.

– Mirrorless camera share (all manufacturers) is 40% in Japan, 25% in Asia and 10% in US and Europe

– X-E2 firmware upgrade will improve the refresh rate of the EVF

– At the moment we focus on APS-C but we don’t rule out the possibility to use larger sensor in future.

Until now we saw product pictures only but today Sigma displayed some real Quattro DP cameras at the CP+ show in Yokohama. And from the pictures you see how it will look once you hold it in your hands.

Huge but comfortable :)
