Leica Camera Forum leaked a new image of the Leica X Vario Type 107 camera. Specs are the one I posted last week.
So after all my original specs were correct and the Leica teaser with the slogan “heard the rumors, get the truth” was just a weird attempt to fool us rumor sites :)
I guess no one will buy this camera. 2450 Euro for a fixed lens camera with 16 megapixel Sony APS-C sensor and slow lens. Niet!

The Latest Leica teaser mande me think that they may were playing us fool. But I got again new confirmatiosn that the specs I posted and the image I shared were the real deal! And also my friend Peter from Leicarumors got the same confirmation from his sources. He writes the final name will be Leica X Vario Type 107 – you can see the label on the top plate of the camera in the picture above. All of the initial rumors were true, here are the detailed specifications:
These are the specs:

Our friends from Digicaminfo found that image of the new Canon EOS-M Canon 11-22mm lens. The lens will be announced very soon. And it seems there will be no new EOS-M camera yet depsite the huge deals running on the current camera (). What are you waiting for Canon?
P.S.: massive new mirrorless deals and mroe posted on DealsRunner.com.
After Fuji Samsung could be the next company offering the Hybrid OVF-EVF viewfinder tech! Egami spotted a new patent disclosing the design of a built-in hybrid viewfinder for NX cameras. I guess we will see these kind of new tech equipped on the new High End NX cameras rumored to arrive in 2014.

Leica posted a new Teaser and a message on Facebook: “Only one week left: Get a hands-on experience at our Leica Authorized Dealers on June 11 when all will be revealed about the newest Leica family member, including its larger than usual sensor for its relatively small body.“
As I told you the day I posted the image, there is only one way the rumor could not be true. And that is that Leica made a marketing campaign by spreading false rumor deliberately around the world. If true this would be the first time a company does it. And in my opinion a very clever strategy! :)
