Tom: “We have a Christmas fundraising appeal which includes a special PhotoVoice camera package from Olympus, which offers the E-M1 MkII and the 45mm 1.8 lens, along with a 1:1 training session from Olympus, all for £1849.
All profit goes to support our charitable work, and there are plenty of other interesting rewards available. I’d love it if you could let your readers know about this.
You can find out more at www.crowdfunder.com/PhotoVoice.”

Imaging Resource’s camera of the year is the new Olympus E-M1II:
Sporting a new 20MP sensor, vastly more on-chip AF points and an updated image processor with a *dual* quad-core design, the E-M1 II feels nimble and capable no matter what you’re photographing. With a single quad core dedicated just to AF and the other image processing, the camera can just chew through images shot after shot — up to a whopping 60fps with S-AF with RAW! Continuous AF, more importantly, is just fantastic. In our testing, the E-M1 II was able to keep up with moving subjects nearly flawlessly, even at its fastest C-AF burst rate of 18fps.

In case you missed this: The latest version of the Olympus Digial Camera updater let’s you also store your E-M1II camera settings. This allows you for example to transfer your settings on another Olympus camera (Example from one E-M1II to another E-M1II). Also when there are new major firmware updates the camera settings will be retained.
UPDATE: This feature only works for the new E-M1II. I have no info whether this will be implemented on other Olympus cameras via future updates.
