One way to move away from the shrinking compact camera and fixed lens cameras is to "try" to offer a similar experience on smartphone cameras. That is exactly what Samsung is doing with the smartphone zoom series.
And now Samsung will introduce at least three new smartphones with zoom lenses on it at CES (start at January 6). The C125, C600 and C805. We will see if those smartphone-camera hybrids will succeed on the market!

Today DC.watch posted the content of the interview with Sony and Olympus. There is no really interesting info about their plans. As expected they will both focus on strengthen their current camera and lens line. Both confirm the trend goes towards realizing Higher Megapixel sensor and better autofocus performance. They also said what they NOT plan to do in the near future: Olympus will not go Full frame yet and Sony will not make an interchangeable Medium Format system yet.
In a double interview at DC.watch, both Canon and Nikon managers confirmed that 2015 is very highly likely becoming the year of the new Megapixel race. And both also sounded very serious about their next steps into the mirrorless world with more "serious" propositions to come.
