Someone just sent me this picture of a rumored new Hasselblad X1D Xcamera that went viral on social networks and forums. UPDATE: Realible sources told us this image is fake!
Follow the announcement of the REAL new X1DII camera on MirrorlessRumors on June 19 at 14:00 CEST
Nokishita reports that Canon will announce the new PowerShot G5 X Mark II within a month. No info about the possible specs yet…
Hasselblad just launched a countdown on their website for a product launch event on June 19! And I bet we will finally get the new X1DII mirrorless camera! And yes, I will also bet it will use the same SONY 102MP sensor used on the Fuji GFX100 :)
UPDATE: On Facebook Hasselblad clearly teased the new X1DII:
At the Fujifilm X summit Fujifilm introduced the new term “Value Angle” to value the different mounts. In short: The Greater the value angle, the more precise and easier a lens can send light to the sensor. A wider value angle gives more flexibility for lens design and allows for more light and less digital correction.
It will surprise no one that Sony FE ends up last:

The reliable news site Nikkei reports that Nikon is ready to launch a sub $1,000 mirrorless camera in 2019! This is the google translated text:
Nikon will introduce a new mid-price mirrorless camera product in fiscal 2019. The same interchangeable lens can be used in the product that corresponds to a sister model such as the high-end model “Z7” launched by the company in the autumn of 2006. It is expected that the price will be in the 100,000 yen range, which is easier for the general consumer to pick up than the leading 200,000 to 400,000 yen model. The aim is to develop the demand of users other than existing enthusiasts.
It’s unclear yet if this will be a sort of Full Frame Canon RP competitor or an APS-C Z-mount camera.
