Dcwatch (google translation here) posted the content of an interview with Canon director MR. Makoto. Based on what the google translation tool provides us we have the following information:
– New EOS-M with built-in EVF could arrive the second half of 2014 .
– EOS-M focus is on keeping size down
– One key aspect on future mirrorless cameras is the hybrid still+video performance
– There will be new lenses for the EOS-M system
– Canon is also “studying” the possibility to make more semi pro or pro mirrorless cameras (Whatever that means…LOL).
For now Canon didn’t take the mirrorless camera world very seriously. But I am pretty sure this is going to change in 2014. The problems for them is. Will they be able to catch up with the best cameras like the Fuji X-E2, Sony A7r and Olympus E-M1?
