Anonymous: “Upcoming OMD EM1 + PRO 12-40mm f/2.8 kit sale. My local (USA) dealer told me yesterday that Olympus will be offering the subject bundle for $1400 within a month or so. Quite a bargain as they try to clear out EM-1 inventory.”

Fredrik: “I made a video comparing ISO from 400 – 6400 on skin tones with the GX85 and the Nocticron 42,5mm. I think it looks very good up to 1600. From 3200 and up you should consider applying some noise reduction.
