Samsung - Soon Mirrorless Will Lead the Market

Samsung-mirrorless

In an interview published at dpreview[link here], Senior Vice President of Samsung’s R&D team Byungdeok Nam confirmed that they are targeting both APS-C and Fullframe DSLRs camera in the market,

Full-frame, high-end DSLRs. The ones around the $5000 level. That’s our benchmark.

In the same interview Samsung Senior Vice President also said that “Mirrorless will outsell DSLRs ‘in three years”

I wouldn’t like to say, but since 2008 when mirrorless systems were announced, mirrorless didn’t grow very rapidly. In the last year, however, market reports are predicting that in 2018/19 mirrorless cameras will outsell DSLRs.

We have seen the Samsung NX1 camera, currently it is one of the best APS-C camera available on planet, we do believe that in upcoming future Samsung will bring out more innovative products in the market to compete with fullframe and mirrorless cameras.

Fuji X-Pro 2, X-E3, X200 and X-T2 will arrive with X-Trans III Sensor?

Fuji-X-Mirrorless

Fujifilm X-Trans sensors and innovative camera design created a new sensation in the digital camera world, but after the announcement of X-T1 we haven’t seen any innovative product yet….  take a look at the chart below

X-Trans-cmos-cameraAs you can see from the chart that the 1st generation X-Trans used on X-Pro1, X-E1, X-M1 and the second generation of X-Trans II sensors are used in X100S, X-E2, X-T1, and X100T.

As you can see from 2012 to 2014 Fuji only introduced two type of X-Trans CMOS sensor (I & II), the first generation of X-Trans  CMOS sensor life was only 1 year and after that Fuji introduced X-Trans II sensor and it’s almost two years passed and we haven’t seen any sign of X-Trans III sensor yet. The update of models like X-E2 and X-Pro 1 is overdue and Fuji users are waiting and waiting.

Due to the lack of new sensor technology (and a bit frustration) Finally Fuji did a little experiment, they announced a new X100T model having the same sensor as of it’s predecessor (X100S) by having negligible difference in core specification, you can also see the comparison here, as a result the X100T sales report was not satisfactory and finally Fuji decided to not to repeat the same mistake again.

Finally if we look at rumors Fuji is expected to announce a new X-Pro 2 camera along with new generation of X-Trans III sensor in Q1 of 2015..what I see is now Fuji need to work fast to introduce 3rd generation of X-Trans sensor in the market to restore his users and gain market share.

+ Also see – As we all know that Fujiflim is also working on organic sensor but it is still on development stage and not ready for use (see the news here),
