A source told me the E-M1 Mark II will be announced on the 19th of September. I am awaiting confirmations from my trusted long time sources to eventually make this rumors “FT5” :)

Reminder: This is a short summary of the Olympus E-M1II spec list we got so far from our sources:

Now uncertain: Sony 20MP sensor or sensor designed by Olympus and produced by Sony?
4K video (first Olympus camera with 4K)
Dual SD card slot
Handheld High Resolution mode
Much improved autofocus performance
new high-resolution EVF
Announcement at Photokina in September
It has no global shutter. But Olympus worked hard to reduce rolling shutter to a negligible level

P.S.: For french readers. OpenPN speculates about the possible new E-M1II features…

(FT5) Panasonic to announce a new MFT entry level camera by end of August

Well folks, you didn’t see that coming I guess. Trusted sources told us Panasonic will announce a new entry level MFT camera by end of August. So don’t expect the GH5 to be announced yet! Sources said that the new entry level camera is certainly super nice, but they don’t know if the GH5 will still be announced right before Photokina…
