Steve: “Thought I would share with you something that I still quite can’t believe. I am being quoted the sum of £1549.00 from my local Panasonic store in Elgin Scotland for the GH3 + 12-35 X lens. This is VAT inclusive and they have confirmed shipment at the end of November. I have asked them many times to confirm that the price is indeed correct and they have assured me that it is. The store is http://www.geddesandmellis.co.uk/”
Andy: “For USA buyers, Costco has the Olympus E-PL2 with 14-42mm Lens for $299. Her is the link: http://www.costco.com/Olympus-E-PL2-with-14-42mm-Lens-Compact-System-Camera-Bundle.product.100011392.html”
Twills: “Here is a guide to how I have my GoPro 3 setup and some tips on how to handle some of the issues with it. This isn’t totally about Micro Four Thirds. However, I use a GoPro 3 instead of buying a wide angle lens which is very expensive with m4/3s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2d_GI31Tv5A”
Vittore: “Here a little summary of my equipmemnt for wedding photography: http://weddingphotographybest.wordpress.com/2012/11/13/micro-43-wedding-photography-settings-and-gear/“

Thanks!

6 months ago |I’ve got the FZ200 and it’s amazing camera for this price. 28-672mm f.2.8 in video mode, good ergonomics, superb stabilization and almost as good in low light as my other GH2 ( both tested at f2.8 ) .
Got money for FZ200?
Take it.

I wanted to bring this news here hoping that some public awareness would prompt Olympus to take some proper action.

Real need to bring your camera to Olympus if it is affected, no real need to go spam the internet.
