The most awaited announcement is likely the one that is rumored to come from Samsung in March. There is a small chance they may be the first company (after Leica) to introduce a Full Frame mirrorless system camera. While there is no reliable info about that camera at least we got some evidence for an imminent Samsung announcement. The German online store Fotokoch already displays the price of the new 50-200mm f/4.05.6 zoom. You will get it for 349 but it is yet no available for preorder. And there is also a new white 16mm f/2.4 pancake (the current one is available in black only).
Let’s hope that this is one of the small bread camps we have to follow until the final NX-R FF camera announcement!

They must be joking with the price. I can buy the first version of 50-200mm for 150€.
Ummm… “the small bread camps we have to follow”?
I’ve put my thinking cap on but all I can come up with is some reference to Hansel and Gretel.
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-RX1 full frame mirrorless isn’t considered a system?
no, it is not a system camera , the Sony does not allow you to change lenses.
but if you do not need tele or super wide , it is the best camera for now.
it beats all current FF DSLRs and Leica M in DR , high ISO and color deopth.
So they will announce new crop sensor lenses alongside their full frame camera? Yeah, nah don’t think so. These are not related. That link is like saying ‘well Samsung make things, therefore maybe they will release a camera’.
I just ordered one, because I need that focal range for my NX1000…
…in a small light weight package, with hopefully at least similar optical quality like my 20-50 mm zoom.
