Jens:I took my Panasonic GX7 with me to Istanbul and wrote me experience with the camera down in this blogpost (german): http://fotoblog-reiseberichte.de/mit-der-panasonic-gx7-istanbul/ In short =>this camera is amazing and made me not miss my APS-C DSLR!

Eddy:Hi! Long time daily reader here – since early 2010 when I used your site to research and buy a GH1. Remember that thing? :)   I am writing you to share with you a short trailer I shot for an app I made, all filmed with a hacked GH1, the 14-140mm f4-5.8, and a Pentax 50mm f1.4. Though I’ve been itching to upgrade for years, I’m glad to say there’s still some life left in my old faithful. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUbtGvNzzVE

How to follow 43rumors (RSS and social networks).

Two months to go til Photokina and it will not take long until we will start to “rumor” about the new Olympus/Panasonic MFT cameras. And there could be also a Panasonic compact camera announcement on July 16 which could become very exciting (fixed lens FT sensor camera?). So here is a short reminder for people who would love to remain informed about the 43rumors news. There are many ways to get notified:

Apple kills Aperture. Ready for a world dominated by Adobe?

Loopinsight reports that Apple will kill Aperture. Apple told them:

“With the introduction of the new Photos app and iCloud Photo Library, enabling you to safely store all of your photos in iCloud and access them from anywhere, there will be no new development of Aperture,” said Apple in a statement provided to The Loop. “When Photos for OS X ships next year, users will be able to migrate their existing Aperture libraries to Photos for OS X.”

Adobe’s world domination is almost fulfilled. Not a good news if we lack of competition :(
