Hands-onwith the latest Olympus: the E-M5Mark II Revealed: Round 4 theme for Camera Club of the Year Has your club signed up to the challenge yet?

Whether you’re a dedicated follower of online rumour sites or treat them with more disdain than playground games of Chinese whispers, recently you can’t fail to have realised that something was afoot at Canon. And finally, all was revealed last week. Not ones to do things by halves, Canon announced not one but five new EOS cameras plus an EF lens. The real headline grabbers are the full-frame, 50-megapixel EOS 5DS and 5DS R – that’s the highest number of megapixels in a full-frame sensor to date. Offering medium-format performance in traditional 35mm bodyform, they

both feature top of the line specification, and the difference is the addition of a low-pass cancellation filter in the R version. Also added to the EOS line-up are the entry-level EOS 760D and 750D, featuring 24 megapixels and DIGIC 6 processors. Finally, the smallest addition is the EOS M3, the successor (in Europe at least) to the EOS M – the company’s first foray into the mirrorless market. And last but not least there’s the EF 11-24mm f/4L USM zoom.
