Zenit confirms they will launch a Full Frame medium format system camera in 2018
The Russian company Zenit told at Rns.online that they will launch their first Full Frame medium format system camera in 2018. There are yet no info about the possible specs of this camera.
Note: Back in 2016 Zenit announced that Zenitar 50mm f/0.95 FF E-mount lens. And I guess this lens will be available for their new system camera too.
New Canon patent shows they are working on a “curved sensor” too!
There is a brand new published Canon patent that discloses a very new kind of camera:
1) It has a curved sensor
2) It has a new EF mount with a lever to detach the lens ( no need to turn)
3) The camera in the patent is a cinema camera but it can be used for a more classic photo mirrorless system camera too
So after Sony and Nikon also Canon is patenting curved sensor tech. Whom will be the first to launch an actual product on the market? My bet goes on Sony…

Fujirumors reports that Fuji will release a major X-PRO2 firmware that will add 4K video recording capability. This is the first time a mirrorless system camera gets 4K via a simple update. I wonder why 4K wasn’t there in the first place…

Insta360 will announce a new camera on August 28. This is a camera you have to spin around yourself to take this kind of impressive videos:
360rumors reports:
It has a high-fps mode (at least 240fps or higher). When the camera is attached to a string and spun around with high fps video, you get the effect that you see here. It appears that this is a fully spherical high fps mode (not just a front lens mode).
Cool!
