Sony posted the full details fo the new CMOS Globla Shutter sensor at sony-semicon.co.jp.

ResearchinChina posted an article about the global sensor market and the forecast for 2017:

It is expected that, in 2017, the CIS market will grow 4.0%, Sony will see a growth rate of at least 10%, and most others will continue to suffer losses. In spite of being not much expected, the mobile phone market is still the most important market and Sony still monopolizes the high-end mobile phone market.

Thanks Barry for that!

Aleksandar: “Greetings, I didn’t see any video about speedboster error that is very common. So I made a video about fixing missing infinity focus for viltrox/metabones/commlite and othets.
Here’s video, if you think it could be helpful for others. I would be happy you share it. Thank you

Today Nikon issued two important press releases:

1) It will cancel the launch of the Nikon DL series which was supposed to compete with the Sony RX100 and RX10. Nikon writes:

the DL series will be canceled due to concerns regarding their profitability considering the increase in development costs, and the drop in the number of expected sales due to the slow-down of the market.

2) What’s way more worrying is that Nikon issued a special statement today: “Notice of Recognition of Extraordinary Loss”

Many Nikon cameras do use Sony sensors and it’s unclear yet how much this news will affect Sony sensor sales (I guess it’s little impact).
