As reported on Nikoneye.com on March 26/27 (depending on your time zone) Nikon will announce the new 28-400mm f/4.0-8.0 Z lens!
This is what I got from my sources:
Well folks, you might be able to get a new Leica D-Lux 8 before the Fuji X100VI is in Stock :)
That’s because Leica is rumored to announce the new D-LUX 8 in May/June already! Here are the rumored specs:
I am surprised to hear that they will use a zoom lens. I would have imagined them going with a prime lens! But definitely the craziest part of the rumor is the pricing…less than the Fuji? What do you think about those specs?

On top you can see the REAL first leaked image of the new Sigma 50mm f/1.2 lens. It looks nearly exactly like the current Sigma 50mm f/1.4. It also has the same 72mm filter size like the f/1.4.
Sigma 50mm f/1.2 lens specs:
A source just some more info about the next lens that will be announced by Sigma within the next few weeks:
What do you think about this lens? This could be winner lens if it’s indeed that small…
Leica officially registered a new camera in China. Leica registered it with the code “Typ 3952A”. And we know what this means because the Leica D-Lux 7 had the code “Typ 3952”. So it’s pretty obvious that this will be a new successor! The D-Lux 7 has been announced back on Nov 20, 2018 and it featured a 17 Megapixel Four Thirds sensor with a fixed 24-75mm f/1.7-2.7 lens. The D-Lux 7 was co-developed with Panasonic which had their own version named Lumix LX100II.
This new D-Lux should be announced within the next three months but we don’t know what the specs will be. My guess is the following:
New D-Lux spec speculation:
This is the official registration act spotted by E8M on Weibo.:
What do you think…will this camera sell hot like the current Fuji X100VI and Leica Q3 cameras?
Sigma is finally going to announce that is super exciting! According to my very best source Sigma will announce a super fast prime lens by end of this Month! I can’t share the final specs yet but this is what you can expect for sure:
Hopefully soon I can fully share the lens specs…
E8M on Weibo spotted two more new camera registrations from Panasonic (we now have a total of three registered cameras). Usually this means that Panasonic will announce those cameras within 2-3 months. All three cameras do support dual band Wifi (5.1 and 2.4 GHz). The dual band support usually is a sign for a mid to high end level camera.
Camera 1: Panasonic S1RII
I am certain one of the cameras is the new Full Frame S1R camera. I told you that my trusted source told me that Panasonic and Leica co-developed the just announced SL3. And the agreements says that Panasonic will announce their High res camera only a couple of months after this camera…with same sensor and similar specs. The S1RII will have better video tough.
Camera 2: new compact FF L-mount camera?
I am uncertain what we can expect from the second model. Panasonic openly confessed they are thinking about a more compact L-mount Full Frame camera. So this could be an option.
Camera 3: GH7 MFT camera?
It’s also clear that we are in dire need of a new GH7 MFT camera.
