There is a new Nikon brochure that makes a clear mention of a new “cheaper” Z-mount lens series. All it says that it’s goin to “be announced at a later date”.

With high confidence CanonWatch reports that this fall we will get the new 75 Megapixel EOS-R High Resolution camera.
Meapixel über alles! :)
EOS Magazine interviewed Michael Burnhill (European Technical Support Manager at Canon Europe). When they asked him if even cheaper Canon EOS-R camera could be introduced in the future he said this:
Do you see a full-frame camera coming in at a price below the RP?
MB: Yes.
I think this shouldn’t come as surprise. The Sony A7II just got a $600 price drop at Buydig, BHphoto, Amazon, Adorama and Focuscamera. You get camera plus lens for under $1,000!!!

CanonWatch reports:
We’re told that the next Canon EOS R camera is already field tested by a small group of selected photographers.
The next Canon EOS R camera will have a high resolution sensor. We expect Canon to announced the high resolution EOS R somewhen in Fall 2019. We still have no reliable information about the resolution but you can expect a sensor between 50MP and 70MP.
The question is if Canon will finally make a new generation sensor that can be nearly as good as Sony. And no crop in 4k would be nice too…but I guess I am dreaming :(
