Will Samsung launch a NX300 monochrome sensor camera at CP+ in February?

Almost a year ago the first rumor about a Samsung Black and White sensor camera surfaced. And it seems like the chance is getting higher and higher to see that for real! Photorumors reports a 20 megapixel NX300 monochrome camera could be announced soon. The camera basically uses the same 20 Megapixel sensor of the current NX300 but gets rid of the color array and AA filter.

That camera would be the first monochrome (non-Leica) mirrorless camera on market. And I certainly like the idea to have such a camera in my bag!

Canons ays they will become serious with mirrorless!

Finally the giant is waking up form the long sleep and promises to get serious on the mirrorless front. In an interview at Dpreview Canon stated:

In the very near future you can expect us to show something in terms of mirrorless and also a higher resolution sensor.

Sounds like they are going after the Sony A7r!!!

At last some hint from Nikon: "large-sensor mirrorless" could come in future.

Toshiaki Akagi from Nikon finally gave us hope to see a "serious" Nikon mirrorless camera any time soon. He said:

We don't want to deny the possibility of future large-sensor mirrorless cameras. So maybe if there is enough demand we may be able to provide another type of mirrorless camera with larger sensors. This is one of the solutions.

Would be good to have a mirrorless FM styled camera or not?

Sigma will not make an interchangeable mirrorless camera yet.

Kazuto Yamaki CEO from Sigma talked to Focus Numerique (translation by SigmaRumors).

Well first of all Sigma confirmed again they are not developing an interchangeable mirrorless camera yet. Pity, would love to see a Sigma Foveon system camera.

On the lens front they will keep making APS-C or MFT lenses for mirrorless system but they have no plan to make lenses for the Sony Full Frame E-mount cameras.

Overall Sigma confirms that their main focus is still creating optics for the DSLR market. But I am pretty sure the day will come they will make more of those nice ART lenses for mirrorles systems including the superb 50mm ART.

Canon says they could launch a "new mount" system.

It's hard to write an article about a google translated Japanese interview :) But if I got it right DC.watch reports that Canon is investigating the possibility to launch a new kind of system camera with new mount. I guess they are talking about a mirrorless Full Frame mount. Canon says they recognize the value of having a compact system camera.

Translated form Japanese culture to Western culture: They are finally recgnizing that they did a mistake not taking mirrorless seriously :)

Panasonic and Leica expand their partnership!

The Leica D-Lux LX100 clone

Panasonic and Leica announced the extension of their partnership within the digital camera market:

Panasonic Corporation and Leica Camera AG today announced they have extended their partnership agreement and agreed to expand and strengthen their technological cooperation in the digital camera field.

The agreement includes the extension of license agreement for use of Leica's trademark on Panasonic's digital camera products as well as expansion and strengthening of technological cooperation between the two companies. Based on this agreement, Panasonic will be able to commercialize digital camera products with Leica lenses over the next five years, from October 2014 to September 2019 while Leica will be able through the expansion and strengthening of technological cooperation to utilize Panasonic's digital technology in its own product development. The agreement will allow both companies to boost product competitiveness by combining Leica's optical technology and Panasonic's digital technology. The companies had signed a cooperative agreement for digital audiovisual equipment lenses in August 2000 and agreed to cooperate in the digital camera sector in July 2001. Since then, the companies have built up a cooperative relationship in optical technology and quality control, and brought high-performance and high-quality digital cameras to the market by fusing Leica's superior optical technology with Panasonic's digital technologies such as image processing. The technological cooperation newly agreed upon in this agreement will reinforce the partnership between the two companies, enabling them to accelerate the development of excellent digital camera products with enhanced appeal to the global camera market. Yoshiyuki Miyabe, President of AVC Networks Company, an internal company of Panasonic, stated: "It is a great honor to be able to strengthen our bonds with Leica as a strategic partner. Panasonic will continue to incorporate Leica's century-worth of optical technologies and camera traditions into the DNA of Panasonic's digital cameras to further expand our business." Alfred Schopf, Chief Executive Officer of Leica Camera, said: "The signing of this agreement is significant for Leica as we seek further growth in the digital imaging sector. Strengthening our cooperative relationship with Panasonic is essential to Leica's continued growth."

Fuji says they have no plan to go Full Frame!

This may just be a cat and mouse game from Fuji but that's what they told to AP:

Oishi said Fuji plans to launch further X-series cameras, and that there is no current plan for a full-frame model. But he pointed out that Fuji is a camera developer, so it may be a possibility at some future date. For now at least, the company line is that there is no full-frame plan.

I am sure Fuji will go Full frame one day. The question is only when this will happen...

Canon predicts increase of system camera sales for 2015. No mention about mirrorless.

Canon held a huge presentation in Tokyo (report at DCwatch). The interesting news is that Canon believes the decrease in DSLR sales are just a very short happening. They expect the interchangeable lens camera market to grow again in 2015. The image on top shows the expected growth in Japan.

There is of course no mention at all about future mirrorless strategy. But I think Canon cannot ignore mirrorless anymore...

The most sexy camera announced today is...a smartphone...the Panasonic CM1!

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!

Samsung posted a new teaser for the NX-D1. Before you think there is a second camera to come after NX-1...hold on! I think that's just the NX-1 and for some unknown reason they named it NX-D1 in that case. If you look at the back the camera is the same as the leaked NX-1 back image:

So do not dream about a second or even a FF camera yet:)

Samsung itself writes on facebook "The reveal is tomorrow at noon CEST/10am GMT/7pm KST."

Redcrow confirms our NX1 specs and adds some info...

Image on top shows ISOCELL sensors used by some Samsung mobile phones/tablets.

Famous Samsung source Redcrow spilled out some more tidbits about the next 1499 Euro expensive high end Samsung NX1 camera and most importantly confirmed the specs we posted few days ago. This is what he writes:

Design: it is THE NX flagship! look just like any other DSLR Flagship. buttons and wheels.

Sensor: definitely not a normal CMOS sensor. either BSI or ISOCELL.

Engine: Brand new Drime engine, multi-core powered.

Continuous shots: Yes, 15 fps with tracking. (Not confirmed full image or not)

2nd gen. PD AF: More than 200 PD sensors from corner to corner on the image sensor. 154 cross sensors among them.

Card: Support UHS-2 memory card.

Lenses: 50-150mm F2.8, another 'S' Lens is coming.

And these are the full specs we got:

- 28 MP APS-C CMOS Sensor (ISOCELL tech)

- DRIMe Image Signal Processor

- ISO 100-51200

- 15 fps with tracking.

- UHD 4K 3840×2160 at 30p/24p

- Full HD up to 60p

- 3″ Tiltable AMOLED Touch Display

- Water and dust proof

- Wi-Fi and NFC Connectivity

- Magnesium Alloy, Weather-Sealed Body

- Vertical grip available.

- Will announce revolutionary PD system.

- Slightly bigger body than NX30.

- Body design matches with 16-50 F2.0-F2.8 lens.

- Best high ISO performance and EVF among crop sensor bodies.

- Available on the market in October (TBD)

- Not retro design but similar with Mamiya?

Sounds all great a part of two things:

1) Price...seriously...1499 Euro? for the body only?

2) Most new cameras from Panasonic and Sony now do 4K recording. Why no the NX1?
