CameraJabber interview with Nikon and Canon

CameraJabber summed up all rumors in one post and added these two video interviews and Canon and Nikon. At the end of the video they asked them about their fuure FF mirrorless but got a very standard answer. Canon and Nikon are still hiding their cards and I suspect the real camera launch isn’t as close as expected. My guess is that their FF mirrorless cameras will hit the market in 2019 and not in late 2018.
