Someone sent me that picture of the new Graphite Fuji X-T2. It looks seriously cool! Maybe Sony should offer a graphite version of their A7 and future A9 cameras too:
Thos eimages don’t look so good yet but I am sure a real graphite Sony version would look much better!

Panasonic announced the new GH5 camera (specs here). And in many areas it marks a new pinnacle in the “hybrid mirrorless” segment. It’s good to see Panasonic bringing such an advanced model as I hope Sony will soon answer with a new A7s mark III that can match or beat some of its features. And the A6700 coming in March should have some GH5 features too…just a joke…it’s not coming in March :)
First of all the GH5 has a dual card slot. And at least we have been told by our sources that the next generation A7s mark III will have such a dual card slot. But what Sony should give us too are some of the other Gh5 features like:
1) Very fast and reliable autofocusing (DFD tech)
2) 10 bit 4:2:2 internal recording (at 400Mbps)
3) proper Full Size Hdmi connection (not that stupid mini Hdmi). And USB-C!
4) Overall better button layout and menu structure
5) Unlimited recording time and no overheating
6) 3,680k-dot OLED LVF
Philip Bloom seems to agree with me that Sony has a lot to learn from the GH5:
Panasonic could be onto a winner here in the indie sector and maybe further. 10bit capture internally with no time limits? If it is good expect this to be used as extra cameras on big shoots. Roll on March! Over to you Sony, you better make that A7S III have specs to at least equal this! That is a big ask!
There are many other cool details you can learn from those two videos below:

You can watch the Sony CES video streaming here: http://www.ustream.tv/sony. UPDATE: The press conference is over and as expected no new camera and lens got announced!
As reported by our sources expect some new OLED TV, CLEDIS prototypes screens and audio stuff. New cameras and lenses are more likely going to be announced within the next 4-6 weeks before the CP+ show.
The two lenses I will take on my mountain trip this Summer ([shoplink 54090]70-300mm FE[/shoplink] and [shoplink 49023]16-35mm FE[/shoplink])
On New Year’s Eve I asked the SAR community for help to choose the best gear for my upcoming major ALPS photography tour. The reason why I am writing this post is that I noticed one specific fact:
It has been a very constructive and civilized discussion and many readers gave very good tips that will help me and many other SAR followers a big help when choosing the best tools for work.
I realized with that specific article that there is a lot of “positive” potential in our community. We may have to do some brainstorming together to see how we can further develop that kind of positive collaboration!

Personal note: After reading all your comments I decided to go for the 16-35mm f/4.0 Zeiss. And maybe the 70-300mm FE too. But I will have to see if it isn’t too much weight also because I will do a lot of climbing too. Probably the biggest problem I have to think about are the batteries. yes I can take 5 of them with me. But I am not sure if I can always find a spot to recharge them….
