Asobinet reports that the Olympus Fisheye Body Cap Lens has been discontinued. I don’t know if there will be a new OM Digital branded version or not.

If this was on your shopping list get one at Amazon, Bhphoto, Adorama before it’s gone.

The large Japanese store Mapcamera shared the top 10 of the best selling cameras in April:

1. Fujifilm X-T5
2. Nikon Z f
3. Sony α7C II
4. Sony ZV-E10
5. Sony α7IV
6. Canon EOS R6 Mark II
7. Sony α7RV
8. DJI Osmo Pocket 3
9. OM-1 II
10. Nikon Z8

Some thoughts on this ranking:

• The X-T5 has an impressive jump to the top. People can’t find the X100VI in Stock and therefore might be getting the Fujifilm X-T5 instead.
• Sony still selling strong with 4 out of 10 cameras in the top 10
• OM-1II made it into the top 10.
• DJI finally made it into the top 10. And I suspect in the years to come DJI will be seen very often in those kind of rankings

Finally a reason to buy an OM-1 Mk2. It does have an advantage, at least for me.
