Press pictures of the Leica DG VARIO-ELMARIT 50-200mm f/2.8-4.0 ASPH POWER OIS lens leaked online. I assume the official announcement will be next week before the 2018 CP+ show.
This Leica DG Vario-Elmarit 50-200mm f/2.8-4 ASPH Power OIS lens has been under development for a while and will be Panasonic’s 10th premium lens after the Leica DG Elmarit 200mm f/2.8 POWER O.I.S. lens ($2,998) that was announced last year (see all Panasonic MFT lenses). The 50-200mm lens was first displayed at the 2016 Photokina show:
When the new flagship Fuji X-H1 mirrorless camera was announced last week I watched an B&H interview with a Fuji where the rep (Justin) started off by saying something like – we had to make a professional robust body, so we had to increase the size of the camera:
“we need a body that is a little bit bigger, a bit more robust, that was sized right but also gives us the chance to use more technology”
Here is a size comparison between the two-year old Nikon D500 ($1,896.95) and the new Fuji X-H1 ($1,899) – both are APS-C cameras (courtesy of CameraSize):
