Adobe RAW support for the E-M5! And 17.5mm at BH.

Here are the latest E-M5 news:
The Lightroom 4.1 beta (CLick here) now supports the E-M5 RAW file. Time to make new testings with one of the best RAW converters :)
Meantime Engadget (Click here) posted the Fuji X PRO 1 review but talked a lot about the E-M5 too: “We haven’t reviewed the OM-D yet, but our preview hinted at promises of much better autofocus. It also has five-axis image stabilization and our few test shots revealed very good high ISO performance too. The OM-D also has a faster 9fps burst mode, is drastically cheaper and overall promises to be a real challenger to the X-Pro1’s perhaps more emotional virtues.” Yep, the E-M5 may be the better choice in terms of price-quality. But I would like Olympus doing a special edition liek the one you can see here at Fujirumors :)

A first Black body only is available at [shoplink 30578 ebay]eBay US (Click here)[/shoplink]. And our reader Marc just wrote: “Picked up the black body only version of the om-d from Jessops in London. I was on a pre-order and I didn’t notice any in store on display so maybe they’re only fulfilling the pre-orders at the moment?
