Photographybay reported a rumor that Canon is currently testing a high resolution 75MP Canon DSLR camera that will come in a pro body (like the 1Dx). The camera will have new processor(s) in order to handle the huge image files accordingly and a very hight frame rate (fps). Announcement could happen before the end of 2013, but the new camera will be available somewhere in 2014.
This rumor makes sense since Nikon is also expected to announce a high megapixel pro DSLR body (D4x).
This picture on Fuji's website appears to be the upcoming Fujinon XF 23mm f/1.4 R lens (35mm equivalent). The new lens will have a distance scale and 62mm filter thread. According to the latest roadmap, the 23mm f/1.4 lens is expected to be announced by the end of the year.
Fujifilm published an updated X-mount lens roadmap that includes a new XC 50-230mm f/4.5-6.7 OIS lens (75-350mm equivalent) that will start shipping by the end of the year.
Fuji also officially released the latest firmware update that will introduce focus peaking for the X-Pro1 and X-E1 cameras

It seems that one of the Hasselblad Stellar websites I mentioned yesterday is already online for some regions. You can access it through this proxi (thanks Tinus).
Additional screenshots:
The new leaked image of the Hasslblad Stellar shows that the camera will most likely come with a leather strap and a nice (wooden?) box. More images of the Stellar can be found here.
There are also several domain names registered by an European company that contain the words "Hasslblad" and "Stellar":
DxOmark tested the Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 DC HSM A lens for Canon mount ($799) and labeled it as the "best performing APS-C zoom":
"With the introduction of this model, Sigma has the best performing zoom of its type. The DxOMark score of 25 points puts well ahead of both the full-frame Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8 L II USM and the Tamron SP 24-70mm f/2.8 Di VC USD (though bear in mind those lenses become the equivalent to a 38-112mm on a Canon APS-C body)."
Here are few comparisons between the Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 and other lenses (even some primes):
