Let’s see if they will be right :)

Apparently Canon wants to keep the “WOW” momentum and they plan to release a new High Resolution R5s camera in 2021:

• Approxamently 90mp sensor
• “Pixel-shift like feature” to add resolution (Perhaps like Fujifilm’s feature in the GFX 100?). Total resolution “north of 300mp”.
• Nearly identical body design as the Canon EOS R5.
• Video features are “NOT a focus” of the Canon EOS R5s.
• Image stabilization will be a “slightly different version” than the current RF mount cameras.
• Pricing will be “similar” to the Canon EOS R5.
• Announcement scheduled for Q1 of 2021 (All announcements are still a moving target for obvious reasons.)

Don’t know if Sony will answer them with a new A7rV. What we know is that Sony has a 102MP FF sensor.

The Japanese website alfaromeo-jp had a chat with Ricoh Imaging president Shinobu Takahashi. A couple of take aways:

• There will be no GR camera with a zoom lens
• They don’t want to make products that are “in”
• They want to make products that are fun

So really not a lot of info but it’s clear they don’t give a damn about making mirrorless system cameras.

Fujirumors listed the very long list of products that might be announced on January 27:

Fujifilm GFX100S
Fujinon GF80mm f/1.7
Fujifilm X-E4
Fujinon XF27mm f/2.8 MK II
Fujinon XF70-300mm f/4-5.6
New Fujifilm Film Simulation

Impressive!

Right on Christmas day Viltrox announced a new trio of Sony FE autofocus lenses: 24mm f/1.8, 35mm f/1.8 and 50mm f/1.8. Preorders will open soon…

That’s a cute lens! And images don’t look bad either:
