The Fuji X PRO 1 has been announced 15 months ago and is still a unique camera. But the cheaper X-E1 and the brand new X100s gave us the feeling that an updated X PRO cameras has to come soon. And indeed a first rumor has been published by Fujirumors where they say that the next X camera to come is the X PRO 2 with dual processor to remove the EVF lag and speed up the image processor engine. The camera is likely to be announced the second half of the year.
Now that’s just my wishlist but I hope a new generation X Trans sensor is going to be used by the X PRO 2!
Panasonic announced the new GF6 and there is really no surprise. All the specs and images already have been leaked days ago :)
There is also a new updated 14-42mm kit lens and a white 14-42mm X zoom. Preorders are now live at Amazon (Click here).
Full coverage about previews and preorders are available at 43rumors.
Keep in mind that a second Panasonic announcement is due in two weeks already! There will be a new G6 and a new High End compact and fixed lens camera.
We have some official product images of two new MFT cameras. One is the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera that comes with a Super 16 sized HD sensor. That sensor has around 2 Megapixels and a 3x crop factor. The camera has one single cool. Shoot the best video quality (with CinemaDNG RAW) in a pocket size and for a low price ($995). I am sure that camera will beat the video quality og the $1299 Panasonic GH3!
Speaking of Panaosnic. here is the official image of the Panasonic GF6 that is going to be announced very soon at 5am CET time.

This really came totally unexpected. Blackmagic announced a pocket sized MFT mount camera with Super 16 sensor. It is a sort of very compact cinema camera with “13 stops dynamic range, Super 16 sized 1080 HD sensor, SD card recorder, high resolution LCD, ProRes and lossless CinemaDNG RAW recording, active Micro Four Thirds Lens compatibility, and micro HDMi monitoring with overlays.”
Now filmmaker can have a super camcorder in their pocket! Amazing work done by Blackmagic!
Yesterday we posted Usain Bolt Samsung NX300 video. Today another star is on the headline. Sylvester Stallone’s Leica M9 that has been used in the movie Expendables II is right now on auction on . Let’s guess what the final price will be. How much extra $$$ is Stallone’s name worth?
