On top you can see the live stream for the Blackmagic camera announcement. It will start at 12.00pm PST!

UPDATE: The live stream is over. Black magic did not announce a new MFT camera today. But as our source said yesterday a new MFT camera could be announced at the NAB show in April.

Olympus released a new firmware update for the E-M1II. The only improvement is this one:

“Stability of RAW file formation has been improved.”

Tony: “Just wanted to share with your readers about a bug that I discovered in the E-M1mkII and have reported to olympus.  The Flash and sync ports deactivate in Hi-res and focus bracketing modes.  More details here:

This might save your readers some frustration or looking bad in front of a client if they aren’t prepared with the workaround!“

There is a new Olympus interview at Imaging Resource. Most of the talk was about the new E-M1II, But Mr.Haruo Ogawa gave us a couple of “extra” interesting info:

1. He expects that in five years the new Olympus cameras will be four times more powerful than the E-M1II (you need this for 8K for example)
2. When asked if  sensors can improve in terms of noise and sensitivity or if we are very close to physical limits he answers: “I think that now [regarding] the noise level, we are coming close to the physical limit.”

So it looks current sensor technology doesn’t allow major leaps forward. But I am pretty sure new things will happen in the future. Something like three layer sensors, graphene sensors and so on could still give us major improvements.
