For the first time I found the new Pana-Leica 25mm f/1.4 lens to be in Stock in USA stores at UniquePhoto (Click here).

[shoplink 25568 ebay][/shoplink]

The polish dealer “Infoto” sold six NEW(!) Voigtländer Nokton 25mm f/0.95 lenses for 599 on [shoplink 25568 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. Sadly they sold all lenses within a couple of minutes! But as I told you the price of the Nokton is falling and expect more such deals soon! BY the way Infoto is a well know and trusted store that is also selling the new Samyang lenses: The [shoplink 25569 ebay]7.5mm fisheye (Click here)[/shoplink] and the [shoplink 25570 ebay]Four Thirds 35mm f/1.4 lens (Click here)[/shoplink].

Reminder: A full review of the Nokton is available at Photozone.

The most expensive of all Olympus camea got a huge $200 discount which will last until Spetember 17! You can get the E-5 now for $1499 at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).

And there is $50 discount on the E-Pl2 too! Again available here Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).

And there are price drops on some m43 lenses too:
-$50 Olympus M.Zuiko 9-18mm Digital at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).
-$50 Olympus M.Zuiko 14-150mm Digital at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).
-$100 on the Olympus 75-300mm at Amazon (Click here) and BHphoto (Click here).

As you know Panasonic officially stated that the next two camera to be announced will be the PRO GF and the GH3. I got some rumors about the GH3 from unknown sources but still almost nothing from trusted sources (a part the global shutter rumor). While waiting to get my first more reliable news about the GH3 our reader noticed that there is a big price drop in USA on the current GH2! The GH2 body price felt down to $809 at Panasonic store (Click here).

I ask my unknown and first time rumor sender to be patient. I always try to double check rumors to avoid bigger mistakes. If I will not get any answer from my trusted sources I might post the rumor with a low credibility ranking. Thanks!

And if you have some rumors to share feel free to contact me at 43rumors@gmail.com or use the anonymous contact form on the right sidebar. Thanks again!

UPDATE: Good news folks! You can preorder the new 14-42mm X lens for $349 only at Adorama (Click here). That’s $50 less than you pay at Amazon (Click here) or BHphoto (Click here). That’s a quite good price for the new high quality lens with powerzoom and with that incredibly tiny size.

Now the only question is. When will that lens be in Stock? BH says the arrival is October but if Panasonic is going to mess it like it did with the [shoplink 23110]Leica 25mm standard lens[/shoplink] than we will have to wait at least a couple until November :(
