Some of you may know that I'm running another German forum about EVIL (Electronic Viewfinder Interchangeable Lenses) cameras AKA Mirrorless System Cameras AKA CSC (Compact System Cameras).

Today I'm officially launching a new International discussion forum:
Mirrorless Forum

It will cover all topics about:
  • Micro Fourthirds (Lumix G-Series, Olympus Pen)
  • Sony NEX
  • Samsung NX
  • Ricoh GXR
  • ... and all the other manufacturers who are going to jump on the band waggon!



Sounds interesting?
Register here!

Is this your contribution to start rumors for photokina news? More details are required!!!

 

Join the new forum ;)

 

But if you read the news (not only rumors) coming from the manufacturers and other official ressources it becomes clear that Canon and Nikon will most probalbly try to get a big share of the EVIL market.

Maeda also said the company was working on a smaller version of its upmarket single-lens reflex (SLR) cameras in a bid to compete with the new breed of mid-range so-called "mirrorless" cameras launched by Sony Corp (6758.T), Olympus Corp (7733.T), and Panasonic Corp (6752.T).

 

Nikon (via Bloomberg)

Nikon Plans `New Concept' SLR Camera as Early as This Year, Kimura Says - Bloomberg

Nikon Corp. plans to introduce a new type of single-lens reflex camera as early as this fiscal year, President Makoto Kimura said. The “new concept” model will probably have an enhanced function for video recording and may adopt the so-called mirrorless structure, Kimura said in an interview today in Tokyo. “It could be any time this fiscal year or the following year, as new models are starting to sell,” he said, declining to specify when the product will be available.

 

Keep track in the forums linked in my signature...

[schmal] EVIL (Electronic Viewfinder Interchangeable Lenses) cameras AKA Mirrorless System Cameras

 

 

 

I love the name, it's just a scam by the camera manufacturers- you pay 400 odd squid for a basic body and lens then look through the back of it like it was a 50 squid cheapo from Argos.

If we are to return to the old days of direct view cameras, why go all the way and add tilt, swing and shift to the units. Now that I can see the sense of.

 

When I want 'live view' I'll use my 5x4 Shen Hao.
