John: “Just spotted a new “Olympus VR (unreleased) app in the Google Play app store. The description states that the app is in development and may be unstable and that it can be used with Google Cardboard.
Is Olympus developing a VR device?“

Samyang announced a new manual focusing Micro Four Thirds lens. It’s the 35mm f/1.2 ED AS UMC CS. There is also a t/1.3 Cine version with declicked aperture ring. This is the official press text:

Samyang 35mm F1.2 ED AS UMC CS is a standard angle manual focus lenses for mirrorless cameras with APS-C sensor size. The flow of light is devised based on the uniqueness of the distance from glass to sensor in mirrorless cameras to create optimal performance.
The bright F1.2 aperture secures a fast shutter speed even under the restricted lighting conditions to offer best quality images. It will brighten up your everyday snapshots. Also it creates an outstanding out-of-focus look by highlighting the main object effectively. The versatility of 35mm angle of view is also a charm. It liberates your daily images including landscapes, streets, portraits and even lunch tables and brings the essence and joy of manual focusing to life.
Based on Samyang Optics’ exceptional optical technology, Ultra Multi Coating and two aspherical lenses have been included among nine glasses in seven groups to minimise aberration and unnecessary light dispersion, delivering high resolution from the centre to the corners of the image. Along with portability of mirrorless lens, the 62mm of wide filter diameter brings the maximum amount of light into the lens to create the best work of light in photography.

It’s always cool to see some new accessory you can have via 3D home printer! 43rumors reader Kabe created this hotshoe adapter:

This is an adapter that provides a hotshoe – or rather cold shoe – on the left side in front of the camera to hold a red dot – specifically the EE-1 from Olympus. It needs to be attached on a BOEM modular base plate from Really Right Stuff (tested only with the Olympus variants for the Olympus OM-D M1, M5, M5.2).
Note that you have to attach the EE-1 before attaching the adapter to the BOEM rail, the upside of this is that the EE-1 is unlikely to get completely out of the adapter.
When used with the tripod adapter of the 300/4, you’ll need to rotate the adapter before attaching the lens. The EE-1 touches the adapter slightly in that scenario.
Olympus, Really Right Stuff, OM-D, EE-1, BOEM are all brands and trademarks belonging to their respective owners.

Elvis: “I shot a ton of footage (all handheld) on the GX85 while on a massive road trip of the west coast of the US, and cut it into a travel film.  https://vimeo.com/173685234. The lenses used were the Panasonic 12-35mm f2.8 and the 35-100mm f2.8“
