According to latest rumors coming from rumor mills, Canon will announce their new Mirrorless system cameras on Early September 2018. Possibly on 3/4th of September 2018.
The news isn’t new and we have received hints in past that Canon will announce their mirrorless system cameras on or before September 2018. You can check out here.
But the big contradiction to the rumors are we aren’t getting any solid leak, I haven’t seen any leaked image till now nor the rock solid set of specification of the upcoming camera. In general before a month of official announcement, we get Major specs and before 10 to 15 days prior to announcement we get images of the upcoming product. So, let’s assume according to rumor mills if Sep 3/4 is the announcement date of Canon Mirrorless system cameras, than we should have the Major specs of the camera and images before Aug 21 / 22. Just hope for the best and keep your finger crossed.
As we all know that Canon Already Registered two FF Mirrorless camera in the wireless registration agency, and one of the test prototypes was carrying a 30MP FF Sensor inside. Being said that, Photokina is one of the best platform to showcase or announce flagship cameras or lenses. Again we have seen in past that all camera companies massively use Photokina platform to announce their high-end cameras.
In the image above you Can see the top design of the upcoming camera and the attached zoom lens with it. As we have said earlier the upcoming Nikon Mirrorless camera do have a Top LCD display screen like the Fuji X-H1 camera. Take a look at the #2 Teaser Video of the camera. And the first Teaser video is here. The rumored specification of the camera is here.
Kevin raber of luminous-landscape.com has published a new Mirrorless war video, the video is really awesome and in the last few minutes of video Kevin predicts about future.
I am going to talk about the major points [Specially the Predication Part which starts from 8:00 Mins] what he has said during video now let’s start with the Nikon mirrorless adaptor talk
1. Nikon FF Mirrorless adapter with Built-in AF Module ?
According to Kevin Nikon upcoming full frame mirrorless adapter may have a in-built AF module inside. At the moment we don’t know how Nikon is putting AF moudle inside the Adpater that work independently for DSLR lenses. The Mirror in the adapter is said to have AF points which will help the Mirrorless camera to acquire AF with DSLR lenses. So somehow, Kevin said that the upcoming hybrid autofocus sensor inside the Nikon mirrorless camera isn’t capable to drive the older Nikon DSLR lenses.
Canon doesn’t have such issue
So that’s really a sad thing to hear, because we do have Canon in our front that drive their own DSLR lenses very perfectly with dual pixel CMOS autofocus sensor as well as the phase autofocus sensor. And same with the Canon EOS M system, with the help of Canon EOS M / EF-S lens adapter you can use the EF-S (APS-C) DSLR lenses and still you can enjoy the DPAF sensor benefits.
So, I don’t think it’s a big issue for Nikon also to drive there lenses with the hybrid autofocus sensors, but let’s face it, if such problem Present inside Nikon upcoming Mirrorless system cameras, then it’s really a big issue because the auto focusing of the DSLR lenses will going to be limited by the type of phase autofocus Module used inside the adaptor made for the mirror less system cameras.
Nanda next thing Kevin is talking about the Sony surprise announcement that we have talked back on November 2017.
Yes, even Kevin talked about Sony A9R, We have published a article on January 2018 [Sony upcoming camera 2018] and discussed about the possible specification and arrival time of the A9R camera.
We are talking about the Sony A9R from a year and we are also getting hints about the development of Sony 70MP Sensor. According to Kevin predictions, It’s look like Sony will put a nuke bomb over the Canon and Nikon mirrorless announcement and we may see the Sony A9R camera which will going to have megapixel somewhere around 60 to 70 With more advanced image processor and very high-end specification to flush out the announcement of Canon and Nikon mirrorless cameras.
At the same time we do know that current G master lenses of Sony support resolution resolving power up to 100 megapixels.
And finally, Kevin speculated that we may see a new mirrorless medium format camera from Phase 1, probably next year. They will soon going to put a medium format solution like hasselblad X1 D camera or GFX50S.
Sony RX100 VA camera is now available at Stock, the camera is a new version of the existing Sony RX100 V camera. You can see the list of major improvement in Sony RX100 VA camera compared to the old one.
And if you wish to get the new Sony RX100VI camera with the goodness of RX100V (the same old 24-70 F1.8-F2.8) lens than you should get the RX100VA camera. Yep that’s true
After the announcement of Fuji XF200mm F2 Lens they have also announced a roadmap of upcoming lenses. And according to the road-map there are two lenses, XF16mm F2.8 WR and XF16-80mmF4 R OIS WR, which are due to announce on the 2019 and one lens XF33mmF1 R WR is schedule to arrive somewhere around 2020. Yes, the XF33 mm F1.0 is first Mirrorless lens in the world made for Fuji cameras and features F1.0 aperture.
By announcing road map of lenses Fuji film always does a great job. Based, on the road map you can clearly see the list of lenses expected to arrive in near future, that will sure going to encourage new users to get a Fuji system camera. In a Press statement, Fuji also said that they will going to boost up the production of lenses up to 70%.
At the end I am going to say that Fuji must also put some of its attention in announcing affordable lenses for entry level users those who are purchasing the XT 100 camera or x A5. If you are going to buy the Fuji 50 mm lens then the price of that lens despite having weather sealed feature is too high compared to the Canon 50 mm lenses for even Nikon’s. Same in the case of 18-135 MM lens, Fuji lenses are way too expensive compared to the DSLR lenses. So, my only request to Fuji is this should put some of their attention in creating lenses for entry level users.
Finally Fuji XF10 camera specification and images leaked, the camera features 24.2 megapixels APS-C sensor, and the camera is also able to record 4K videos but limited upto 15 frames per second.
Fuji XF 10 camera is actually a successor of Fuji x70 camera (now discountinued), Fuji X-F10 camera does arrived with massive upgrade. The new camera carries a completely new 24 megapixels APS-C format sensor camera and also records 4K video. However, it is limited to 15 frames per second.

Introduction of RAW (NRW) File Format
Now the Nikon P1000 camera captures images RAW format. Before that it was not possible to have a RAW file from Nikon P9xx series camera. Its, a superb addition, and we really appreciate it.
4K Video
Nikon P1000 camera now captures 4K video at 30 Frames second, the camera have a limit of 4GB file size or 29Min recording. Literally the P1000 camera is the only Megazoom camera which features a 100X + optical zoom lens and a option to have 4K video recording.
Heavy on Hands
The camera weigh 1.42kg just like DSLR with lens, so if you have a habit of carrying DSLR with Lenses then you will have no issue.
Conclusion
Nikon P1000 is one of the best Megazoom camera available with 125X optical zoom lens. No other camera maker is able to cross 100X optical zoom barrier. One of the best multi-purpose camera out there. We highly recommend you to get Nikon P1000.
