Mirrorleassons:Since it has been extremely foggy here in Turin as of late, Mathieu and I decided document the phenomenon one Sunday morning with the Lumix LX100 and Fuji X100t. The result is this gallery. :) Hope you enjoy it! http://www.bestmirrorlesscamerareviews.com/2014/12/22/fog-on-the-river-po-in-turin-a-fujifilm-x100t-panasonic-lumix-lx100-gallery/

Jan:My best shot I did this year solely using the Panasonic Lumix GM1 in combination with the Voigtländer f0.95 25mm lens – no rig or whatsoever used. https://vimeo.com/101335718

Eyal:If you care for such comparison – I compared my LX100 and my GX7 20mm f/1.7 kit to see who’s sharper. The results are here: http://www.eyalg.com/blog/2014/12/lx100-vs-gx7-sharpness-comparison-test/

It’s Christmas today and no matter if you are Christian or Muslim or Atheist (and so on…), I will take the chance to Thank You for all the support you gave me in 2014. And I Wish You and Your Family a nice holiday! Grab some great pictures of the people you love :)

P.S.: By the way, there will be no break here on 43rumors. Too many rumors to post because of the imminent CES and CP+ announcements! I will be back with rumors and news on December 26 (tomorrow) already.

Japanese Olympus patent shows E-M5II new sensor shift tech!

Share

Bildschirmfoto 2014-12-24 um 09.56.47

For those of you that speak Japanese there is a new Olympus patent No. 2013-187811 describing how the sensor shift tech works (Source: http://astamuse.com/ja/published/JP/No/2013187811).

The patent shows how the shifting creates high-definition images with 1/2 pixel shift and 4 frames.

The E-M5markII will actually increase that to 8 frames (and 40MP resolution images). The sensor used will be the same as the one of the current E-M5 (16MP and no phase detection pixels). But the processor will be new and manage to create those 40MP images on the fly!
