Hakasushi leaked this image of the new DJI Osmo Action 6. There is no info about the new specs.

Light Lens Lab is a chinese company well known for their M-mount lenses. Well, today trey made this surprising announcement:

Press text:

We are excited to announce that, to celebrate this special occasion, we will begin researching, developing, and producing photographic and cinematic films.

Our initial research has yielded promising results. Our first emulsion test indicates that our black-and-white T-Grain silver halide structure research has succeeded. We conducted a test shot using our Seagull Upgrade Project TLR Camera. However, the antihalation layer was not applied to the film during this testing phase. A new antihalation layer will be utilized for future films.

Our goals for this project include researching, developing, and producing films through the following development processes:

• Black and White film with T-Grain Structure, with speeds ranging from 100 to 1600
• C-41
• E-6
• Instant Peel-Apart Film
• ECN-2 for cinematography
• And more in the future

We also aim to produce films in various photographic or cinematographic formats; please stay tuned for future releases.

The Film Project will utilize our newly developed proprietary machine and emulsion process, allowing us to be self-sufficient in our production.

This film project will be marketed under a different brand name, so please stay tuned for future updates!

Newly developed T-Grain Structure Emulsion:

As reported by L-rumors:

1) Panasonic Lumix S1rII is coming in February
Same Leica SL3 specs but WITH decent quality video

2) Panasonic and Capture One will make a special joint press release at the S1rII launch
Probably this means that Capture One worked closely with Lumix to get you the best possible RAW editing quality.

3) One more Panasonic Lumix L-mount Full Frame camera will be announced in April
I have been told this is unlikely to be the S1HII…but still something very interesting! I don’t know if this will be the successor of this camera or a full frame version of this epic fixed lens camera or a Lumix S9 with integrated EVF.

Finally Panasonic launching some proper BIG guns!

This week, Johnnie and Nino dare a long, hard look into the crystal ball to speculate and ponder about the cameras and lenses that they expect to be released in 2025. What are the big news we expect from Blackmagic Design, Canon, DJI, FUJIFILM, Nikon/RED, Panasonic, Sigma, and Sony?

There are rumors circulating on Weibo about the Ricoh GR3 successor coming in 2025. Please keep in mind those are NOT rumors from my trusted sources so take it with a grain of salt:

• Ricoh GR3 will be released in 2025 but timing is unclear (might not be in Q1)
• Might not be named GR4
• Autofocus will be improved
• battery life will be improved

I hope my sources will come back soon to share more details ;)
