The Canon new Vlogging Camera concept looks really amazing, Just take a look at the designs of the Canon new Vlogging camera setup. As you can see from the design the camera can move the lens up and around to the back. One of the most important parts of the entire setup you can use Mirrorless lenses (Most probably EF-M Mount) as per your choice. The only issue the design has is the placement of Hotshoe. In general, vloggers use Microphones on the hot-shoe, then the movement of the smart lens mount will be blocked.

In recent years, a video distribution service using a communication network such as the Internet has become widespread, and a user can upload captured video content to the video distribution service. Further, when a user shoots a moving image, it is required to shoot a moving image in a free posture in various situations and to take a moving image from various angles. As a related technique, an imaging device of Patent Document 1 has been proposed. The image pickup apparatus of Patent Document 1 makes it possible to invert the display of the display unit according to the orientation of the lens unit while rotating the lens unit with respect to the main body about one axis to switch the shooting direction.
I really don’t’ know what to call this, except that instead of turning the camera around to take selfies and to video blog, this device allows you just to swivel the lens in different directions. It allows you to do this, and maintain the same screen and grip orientation throughout the movements.
Canon shows this patent as an ILC, and you’d think the smaller mount such as the EOS-M would fare much better here than the larger RF mount (not to mention lens size would play a factor in this device).

Nikon closed its Japanese Camera production plant to reduce overall manufacturing cost, Now only the Thai production plant is active. As we reported earlier also Nikon is dealing with big financial loss this year. Now as per the report coming from AERAdot (Japanese news mag) Nikon is bout the end of Nikon’s domestic camera production which was running for more than 70 years.
Nikon Closed Sendai (Japan) Production Unit
Few important parts of the news (Translated from Japanese)
- At last, Nikon will end the domestic production of camera bodies that has continued for more than 70 years. Until now, body manufacturing has been carried out at “Sendai Nikon” in Miyagi Prefecture and “Nikon Thailand (NTC)” in Thailand, but in order to reduce costs, it will be concentrated at the Thai factory.
- Production of the mirrorless cameras Z 7 and Z 6 was completed at the end of September, and preparations for the transfer of production to Thailand began in October. Production of the D6 digital SLR will also be transferred to Thailand by the end of 2021.
- Founded in 1971, Sendai Nikon is located in Natori City, which borders the south of Sendai City. Production of single-lens reflex cameras began with EM (released in 1979), nicknamed “Little Nikon,” and gradually shifted to production of high-end models. It has also played a role as a “mother factory” that provides technical guidance to overseas production factories.
- Sendai Nikon will continue to play an important role in camera production

TNC exclusive: A Canon camera with an option to change the amount is under development, and not only that the flange distance of the camera is also adjustable. That clearly indicates you can use DSLR lenses or Mirrorless lenses as per your choice.
Patent Details

Priority to JP72A 2020-05-28
Publication of JP555A Status Pending
Patent Details (Translated by google)
To prevent inconsistency in the functions of an imaging device after mounting replacement and to prevent user confusion. SOLUTION: A camera can replace a mount 13 which is a connection portion with a lens 14. Under the control of the system control unit 4, when the power of the camera is turned on, the type of the mount 13 mounted on the camera is determined, and the mount replacement is determined. Then, when it is determined that the mount has been exchanged, the menu including a plurality of items and the My Menu for registering the item selected by the user among the items included in the menu are required for the type of the determined mount among the menu items. If the hidden item is registered in My Menu, the item is unregistered from My Menu.
It is important to select the equipment in consideration of the combination with the lens to be used. However, such a situation is disadvantageous in terms of cost and management in the rental industry that handles many types of equipment. Under such circumstances, a camera having a mechanism in which the mount can be replaced by the user’s own hand is desired and is actually commercialized.
However, the replacement of the mount is a work that requires specialized knowledge and tools, such as adjustment of the flange back, cannot be easily performed by the user, and is a specification not related to most users. On the other hand, if the mount type is different, not only the type of lens that can be connected to the camera will change, but also the communication method between the lens and the camera, and the functions and performance of the camera side will differ, so the difference as a camera It is necessary to keep the specifications taken care of. At this time, if the specifications are made on the assumption that the mounts will be replaced, there is a problem that a function meaningless to most users appears to be a usable function. Since this may cause confusion for users, the function is usually assigned according to the mount type at the time of shipment from the factory. However, even in this case, it is necessary to prevent inconsistency in case the mount is replaced by the user.
