Hasselblad has unveiled plans to launch a high-end mirrorless camera with a Sony E-mount. Dubbed the “Lunar”, the camera will sport a 24.3MP APS-C sensor and capture full HD video.

Leica M-E Unveiled as Lower Priced Rangefinder
While the new Leica M cruises in at $7k for its full frame 24MP and 1080p video shooting, the Leica M-E isn’t quite the bargain basement price at $5450. But still, it’s a step down with an 18MP CCD sensor that is close to the same camera as the prior generation Leica M9.
The Leica M-E features a sensitivity range of ISO 160-2500, a 0.68x magnification viewfinder and a 230k-dot res 2.5″ LCD. The Leica M-E should be available packaged with Lightroom 4 later this month from Leica retailers. Check availability here at B&H Photo.

Leica M is a Full Frame 24MP, $7K Rangefinder
The Leica M is heir apparent to the Leica M9. From this point forward, Leica is ditching the number system and simply calling new models the Leica M.

The Leica M should be available in early 2013 for $6950. Check availability here at B&H Photo.

Canon Unveils PIXMA PRO-10 and PIXMA PRO-100 Printers
Alongside the new full frame EOS 6D, Canon unveiled a pair of new printers – the PIXMA PRO-10 and PIXMA PRO-100.
These new models are built in the same vein of the flagship PIXMA PRO-1 that was released last fall. The new PRO-10 and PRO-100 feature a new “PRO Mode” that maps color gamut for optimum balance of brightness and saturation.
According to Canon this PRO Mode “helps adjust colors by taking into consideration the characteristics of human perception. The technology helps to create prints that accurately reflect the image as seen on a monitor without needing a high level understanding of color management.” Canon says that this PRO Mode should also be available as a firmware upgrade to the PIXMA PRO-1 in early 2013.
The PIXMA PRO-10 and PIXMA PRO-100 will retail for $699 and $499, respectively, when they hit the market (no word yet on when specifically that will be).
