T</em><em>he "new concept" model will probably have an enhanced function for video recording and may adopt the so-called mirrorless structure, Kimura said in an interview today in Tokyo. "It could be any time this fiscal year or the following year, as new models are starting to sell," he said, declining to specify when the product will be available."</em></p><p><em><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1278746171.usr15670.jpg" style="border: 0;" /></em></p><p>Alright, so it "may" adopt a mirrorless structure (which means it's not a SLR anyway), but regardless, I wonder what will it be like? Like I've said, if it is not using the F-mount, it is a new camera system on its own, with all the drawbacks (limited lenses, support, accessories, third-party items).</p>
