Digitalrev already lists the E-M1II on preorder :)

Bildschirmfoto 2016-07-14 um 20.34.04

Digitalrev seems to cannot wait to see the new E-M1II camera and is already accpeting preorders on their site (Click here). And this is not the only “ghost” preorder from Olympus. Also the yet non announced 30mm f/3.5 MFT macro lens recently appeared on sites like Macconnection, Neobits, Amazon.cn, Unitedoffice.

Olympus had(?) the plan to announce the new E-M1II at Photokina. But I heard shipment will be delayed by many months. This means I am no more sure if the announcement will really take place anyway at Photokina or if Olympus will decide to wait a couple of months.

And one more thing: I am yet not sure it is the GH5 we are going to get by end of August….

Nicholas: “I thought I’d share my real world test of the Panasonic GX85 of a wedding I filmed on Sunday 100% completely handheld. I haven’t really seen a real world test yet of this camera so I thought I’d share it in case you would like to share it with your readers. Most reviews are theoretical or casual shoots, no story to them, so I thought this would be a refreshing view on this fabulous camera! It felt really good to be able to leave the monopod, tripod, slider and steadicams at home for a change. Felt super liberated! More details are in the Vimeo description if you’re curious.
