A short report from the OM booth at the Photography show.

Olympus Imaging obviously made a few mistakes that led to their downfall – the imaging company was carved out from Olympus and sold to a separate company, JIP. I want to discuss what went wrong and explore the mistakes in hopes that the new company, OM Digital Solutions will not repeat the same mistakes.

Google translated text from the Japanese DC.watch website:

With the update related to the improvement of the movie shooting function, it supports movie recording to an external SSD. It is possible to record and play photos and videos on an external SSD of up to 2TB via a USB cable.

For video recording, it is possible to record video data with large file sizes such as Apple ProRes 422 HQ (maximum 1.9Gbps) and 4:2:2 10bit All-Intra (maximum 800Mbps) directly to SSD. In addition, since data can be transferred directly from the SSD to the PC after shooting, it is possible to make backups after shooting and improve the efficiency of post-production.

High frame rate/variable frame rate videos with a frame rate of 61 fps or higher do not support recording to an external SSD. Simultaneous recording with an SD card or CFexpress card is not possible when using an external SSD. The company recommends using an external SSD whose operation has been confirmed.

And you thought that the compact fixed lens camera business was dying! You fool…or wait…you might be right:

Panasonic Europe today announced the new Panasonic TZ202D compact camera. But looking closely the camera is actually exactly the same as the “old” TZ202 with one single change: It has a new 1,84m dot display instead of the older 1,24m dot. it’s very likely that the 1,24m screen is no more in production and Panasonic had to make this one change.
