Refurbished stuff in Europe

[shoplink 21957 ebay][/shoplink]

A couple of weeks ago I found a nice store named Olympusmarket that sells Olympus refurbished cameras and lenses. They sell in Europe only and have pretty good deals! I didn’t find any similar stores for Asia or US. Ans I also didn’t find any similar  eBay-store with refurbished Panasonic cameras. Those are the latest auctions:

1) There are ten 14-150mm Micro Four Thirds lenses for 399 Euro ([shoplink 21953 ebay]Click here to see them on Olympusmarket[/shoplink])
2) The Four Thirds 40-150mm lens ([shoplink 21954 ebay]Click here[/shoplink])
3) Silver E-PL1 body ([shoplink 21955 ebay]Click here[/shoplink])
4) Silver E-P1 with kit lens ([shoplink 21956 ebay]Click here[/shoplink])
5) Black Olympus E-P2 body ([shoplink 21957 ebay]Click here[/shoplink])

P.S.: I already bought two E-P1 cameras at Olympusmarket (one white for 201 Euro and one silver for 232 Euro).

follow Fuji X100 on MirrorlessRumors.

 

A message for our readers: Many of our readers here are interested in getting news about the Fuji X100. But many also not! The problem is that the X100 doesn’t really fit well inside the 43rumors website and that creates some controversy discussion. I think the X100 is an interesting camera and It’s certainly worth to mention this camera on 43rumors from time time for two reasons:
1) Fuji is a Four Thirds group member (but the X100 is not a 43 camera)
2) The X100 brings some nice innovations is nice to talk about

But I kindly ask you to follow my second website which is MirrorlessRumors.com. I am going to work very hard on that website to provide you with unique content. Today I posted a full list of Fuji X100 news (Click here). I will keep posting a few X100 news on 43rumors with the link to MirrorlessRumors so that readers will get used to the new website. I hope this is a good solution for all our readers. Thanks!

P.S.: I will soon post an article about my goals with MirrorrlessRumors.com. I really do think Mirrorless cameras are the future and I am excited about that!

P.P.S.: You can get the Fuji X100 right now at Amazon US (Click here). UPDATE: Out of Stock after 23 minutes!

One of the very last chances to get the GF1 for cheap (Display Units to buy) + Olympus lens rebates

[shoplink 21852 ebay][/shoplink]

Damn did we all love the GF1! The bad news is that you almost can’t find it in Stock anymore. Panasonic discontinued the camera and if you find them than certainly not for a reasonable price.. There are still readers asking me where they can get it for a decent price. One of our readers found a nice deal. You can get three display units for $400/270 Euro (body only):
– first display unit on [shoplink 21852 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].
– second display unit on [shoplink 21851 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].
– third display unit on [shoplink 21850 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink].

I don’t know how long those deals will last. Wish you Good Luck!
