More rumors

According to Mirrorless Rumors Fujifilm will announce the replacement for X10 and X100 in January. It is expected that X200 will have 16MP X-Trans sensor, the same as in X-Pro1 and X-E1, while Fuji X10 apparently may keep the EXR sensor of its predecessor.

For anyone interested in current generation of advance compact cameras DPReview team compared essentially all cameras in that class. Perfect camera suitable for everyone does not exist. Canon G15 has good lens, Sony RX100 with its big sensor wins on resolution etc. Sadly, Nikon P7700 is a bit slow compared to other cameras. Well, P7000 was also slow.

Interestingly, people expect a new m4/3 camera in January next year. In last few years Olympus had very high "model refresh rate". Will it be a new PEN or new OM-D? I would bet on new OM-D model with a build-in viewfinder positioned below E-M5. Hopefully one day Olympus will make m4/3 version of their E-300/330, something similar to Fuji X-E1 in term of external controls but with a tiltable monitor.

No new rumors on Olympus E-7, and anyone waiting for E-5 replacement, need to wait a little bit longer, maybe until the second half of 2013.
