Think Tank previously had the Retrospective 7 designed for mirrorless camera lovers, but now they’re showing off a brand new line designed specifically for that crowd: the Mirrorless Mover. Available in a 5, 10, 20, and 30i series,the bags are designed for different sizes of mirrorless cameras moving from the Nikon 1 series all the way up to Leica Ms accordingly. As for prices, they’ll range from the mid $30-$70 range.
Besides dividers (which are very close to the Retrospective series in design) the bags sport a Flip-Top style lid with magnetic closure, a rear slot for your belt and to therefore prevent theft, side pockets, mesh pockets, and is made from ballistic nylon. It also includes a rain cover. It’s quite interesting that the company has chosen not to make the bags from canvas.
They aren’t available yet, but then they launch we’ll be sure to have them in for review.
Samsung’s mirrorless cameras haven’t always been the most popular in the states, but their latest NX2000 is apparently targeted at the person who is embracing a totally new workflow. It is being slotted in below the NX1100 and so even has some interesting departures from Samsung’s norms. First off, it records data to a Micro SD card–which is completely different than anything before. Additionally, the camera is nearly devoid of buttons and instead emphasizes use of the touchscreen. There is built in WiFi for instant sharing (to many different cloud services) and there is also an LCD touchscreen being used instead of the normal Samsung OLED screens–which I personally preferred.
Otherwise, this camera seems to match nearly any other Samsung mirrorless camera with a 20.3MP APS-C imaging sensor–and it will ship with Lightroom 4.
The NX2000 will have an MSRP of $649.99 and will be available in white, black and pink from authorized Samsung retailers Specs, extra photos and details are after the jump.

Not everything in life can be beautiful, well designed or a work of art. The Hasselblad Lunar is a prime example of this. The universe thinks so too and has stepped in to delay its launch. By way of the Sony Alpha Rumors and Amateur Photographer sites, “Hasselblad has since told AP that the Lunar is ‘scheduled’ for June availability, but its spokesperson did not give a reason for the later launch date.”

Earlier in the year, we reported on Kodak’s Micro Four Thirds camera. However, it isn’t really being done by the company but instead by JK Imaging–a still very mysterious addition to the camera world. Photo Rumors spotted the camera at a recent Tradeshow in Asia. As a refresher, the new MFT mount camera has a Sony CMOS sensor and built-in WIFI. That’s really all that we have so far, but this camera looks very much like the first Olympus digital Pen camera.
We also still have no clear idea of when it will hit the market.
Editor’s Update: We updated the image to show the M43 camera, but they are also showing off a PixPro model as well.
Samsung introduced their new NX300 mirrorless interchangeable lens camera today; and we were able to get some quick hands on time with it. The new camera (that replaces the NX 210) features a redesigned 20.3MP sensor, the ability to shoot 3D and 2D stills and video with the also announced 45mm f1.8 3D, includes a new DRIMe 4 engine, has both contrast and phase detect focusing, and lots more. To boot, you’ll also receive the camera bundled with Adobe Lightroom 4.
Here’s our overview:
Editor’s Note: New price on the lens and new product photos

Photo Rumors has the news of Hasselblad’s new Lunar Mirrorless Camera system. If you want, you can choose to stop reading here since the price is going to be $6,500; which is just out of this world (pun totally intended). But besides mirrorless, there are hints of the company moving into the DSLR segment too.
Update: According to PDN, Hassy will also put out a full frame DSLR. Thanks to my buddy Dan Havlik for being awesome and finding this out!
