The Rokinon 14mm f/2.8 full frame lens is now on sale at B&H, Amazon and Adorama. The savings vary based on the mount (Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Sony E, Sony A, MFT, Fuji) and lenses version (chipped with focus confirm, mirrorless, etc):
Update – two more Samyang/Rokinon deals:
Dpreview published their CP+ interview with Fuji executives. Here is the recap courtesy of FujiAddict:
As I already reported GoPro will announce a new camera at the end of March. Today the Japanese site Nokishita confirmed the date and posted some additional information on the new GoPro:
DxOMark published their test results for the Sony A7III full frame mirrorless camera ($1,998):
“Sitting between the Sony a S and R models, the sensor in the A7 was always a balance between resolution and sensitivity, but that’s no longer the case. On sensor performance alone, particularly with regard to low light / high ISO sensitivity, the Sony A7 III is ahead of the A7S II and comes very close to the overall image quality potential of the A7 RIII. What was once a showcase model for some interesting camera tech, the A7 III can now add cutting-edge low-light sensor performance to the mix. That may change when Sony releases the A7S III, but in the meantime, priced at around $2,000, it’s not asking for the earth in return.”
Sony A7III vs. Canon EOS 6D Mark II vs. Nikon D750:
The upcoming Zenit D1 mirrorless camera will have a 42.4MP BSI CMOS sensor without AA filter with 50-25,600 ISO range. The official announcement should be in the next few days. The camera design looks very similar to the Leica SL (update: I think this is a fake – I just found the original Leica SL product picture):
Stay tuned for updates.
Many of the current Fuji camera and lens savings are set to expire this week:
Mint Camera is working on a new RF70 (Rangefinder 70) camera that can shoot Fujifilm Instax Wide. The RF70 will be a high-end instant camera with a foldable design that has a good build quality and a fast glass lens (if you have ever used the Fujifilm Instax Wide 300 camera you know how it feels cheap and “plasticky”). The InstantKon RF70 is expected to be available in late 2018
Mint Camera is a brand linked to the instant photography world. They restore old Polaroid SX70 cameras but also create new models like the InstaFlex TL 70 instant film camera and now the RF70.

Another possible announcement is a new Canon EF-M 32mm f/1.4 STM lens.
