According to the latest set of rumors, we are getting the upcoming Canon V10 Mark II camera, which will use a 20.9-megapixel stacked CMOS sensor, and the effective megapixels will be 20.1 or 20.2.
Moreover, the redesigned sensor of the Canon G7X Mark III camera will use Canon’s latest DIGIC X image processor. The rest of the core specifications are not yet known but will have a subtle upgrade from the V10.
We will also experience autofocus improvement in the new V10 Mark II camera, but at the time I am writing this article, it is still unknown whether the upcoming camera will use a hybrid or DPAF or its conventional CDAF method for focusing.
So that’s the set of updates we have related to the upcoming V10 Mark II camera. The camera is rumored to arrive in 2025.
Stay tuned! We will update you as soon as we have any new information about the upcoming camera.

Today, the Z Cinema camera was officially announced. As we all know, RED Digital Cinema is now a subsidiary brand of Nikon. They have modified and relaunched the V-RAPTOR with a Z Mount and the KOMODO with a Z Mount.
We were the first ones to talk about the Z KOMODO [read our expectation article], and just a few months later, we received information about the RAPTOR. The context was that they were working on both series one after the other, and finally, they announced them today.
The new RAPTOR and KOMODO with the Z Mount feature inherit all the goodness of the Z Mount system. This means the autofocus performance has also been integrated into these cameras. So if you are using the recently announced Z Cinema lenses or Nikon Z Mount system lenses, there should be no problem. As we all know, the RAPTOR camera offers 20+ stops of dynamic range, and using it with improved autofocus lenses will be a game changer in the field of cinematography.

We don’t know the reason why this happened, but Nikon’s financial results recently came out, showing an overall decline in profits with a huge margin, specifically in the third quarter of the fiscal year ending March 2025.
As the report says, they have achieved only 39.1% of the sales target, so it doesn’t look that good. This is what they projected or what they thought—they have achieved only approximately 40% of that.
The company’s consolidated net profit from April to December fell 74.9% year over year and dropped to 6.26 billion. And now Profits for the most recent quarter (October-December) dropped 78.3% to 3.29 billion yen. Now, Nikon expects a 28.2% profit increase in the months of January to March, bringing the net profit to an overall figure of 9.73 billion yen.
The biggest thing that I have noticed is that their operating profit margin has also shrunk from 10.5% to 1.3%, which is really not good for any company out there, whether it’s a camera maker or a cellphone maker.
When a company’s operating profit margin drops to 1%, it indicates that the company is barely making money from its core business operations.

Before we begin, let me tell you one thing: both cameras carry almost the same core specifications like sensors, image processors, and other technical aspects, so the image quality and video quality will be the same.
Here comes the design part: if you would like a slightly retro-looking camera, you can go with the Olympus OM-3, the latest edition. But if you love to have the Olympus OM-1 Mark II, why would you love it? Because it has a deeper DSLR-style hand grip. Another thing is that due to the type of body construction, there is no overheating issue associated with this particular camera. Now, the OM-3 heatsink isn’t as good as the OM1 II, so it may be prone to overheating while recording 4K videos for a longer period.
Which Camera is Recommended for You?
If you love to have a DSLR-style hand grip and a professional-grade weather-sealed rugged body, then the OM-1 Mark II is the better choice. Another thing—yes, we do have some slight photography advantages inside the OM-1 Mark II, like an extended ISO range. Right now, we don’t have confirmation about the OM-3, but it does not have a very high-resolution electronic viewfinder of 5.76 million dots, as well as a mechanical shutter range up to 1/8000 of a second.
Professional grip easy to carry heavier lenses with the camera, and even makes feels you more and more comfortable when you hold this camera for longer hours for shoot, like shooting an event or wedding
Even the continuous shooting speed of the mechanical shutter is approximately 10 frames per second in the Olympus OM 1 mark II, which is limited to 6 frames in the OM-3. So, if you look at all the possible core specifications in both cameras, then for photographers who don’t bother about the type of design they are getting and are not inclined towards the retro-style camera, the best option is to buy the OM-1 Mark II.
The Olympus OM3 is even marketed as a street-style Retro camera. Most of the pics used for promotion showed people holding their cameras with straps and using a lightweight lens, but again professionals who hold their camera hands for longer periods will surely prefer the OM1 Mark II
For Videographers and Photographers
The best thing recently introduced in the new OM-3 camera is the OM-Cinema Mode. With the OM-Cinema Mode, you get a decent, slightly less-contrasty color picture profile, which is more suitable for displaying your captured videos on 4K HD televisions.
But again, you have to consider one thing—if you are a podcaster who records for longer periods, then you should go with the OM-1 Mark II, since it doesn’t have any limitations like the 120-minute recording limit in 4K on the OM-3.
If you are into longer recording sessions, then for sure, the OM-1 Mark II is the best choice. Additionally, it supports Full HD video recording at 240 fps for slow-motion shots.
Again, the Cinema Mode in the OM-3 can be easily adjusted in post-processing, so it’s not a big thing.

According to the latest, so much can a Canon R50 V camera is rumored to be announced soon by Canon. They are already working on the expansion of the V series, and we do have rumors related to the Canon V1 compact. Previously, we did believe that Canon will expand their compact range for vloggers without a doubt, but a Canon R50 V camera is a surprise for us.
Canon R50 V Early specs (Canon R50 V – Proposed name of Canon V Series Mirrorless Camera)
- Video-focused APS-C camera.
- It has been described as “boxy” in design.
- Expected price point: $1500

Information related to the specifications of the upcoming Canon R50 is very limited. At the very moment, we are not able to believe that a Canon R50 V or a similar camera will arrive from Canon, even if the rumors is coming out from a reputed rumor mill.
And the best part is the rumors are not just limited to Canon R50 V, there are also rumors related to the Canon R7V camera alongside with the
Latest rumors suggest, two versions are planned:
- EOS R7 V: Video-focused model.
