Our readers noticed quite a huge mistake on the official new ImageVision 4K Micro Four Thirds camera banner. The Chinese company is displaying the E-mount(!) lens image on the background of the MFT camera. They really should address this if they want to be taken seriously :)
The site of the product is available here: imaginevision-tech.com.
Panasonic G7 owners may have noticed the serial number on the camera can rubbers-off. Panasonic US released an official statement about the matter:
Panasonic has just become aware that some customers who recently purchased DMC-G7s are experiencing rubbed-off printing of the camera’s serial number tag and we apologize for any concern this may have caused. Any reference that these are “knockoff” cameras is not factual. We have already informed our factory in Japan who is investigating these reports. Be assured that this will not have any negative impact on the camera’s warranty. Your warranty is validated by the proof of purchase from an official retailer and the serial number clearly appears on the carton’s UPC label. All customers should retain these two documents in addition to registering your camera on the Panasonic web site in the unlikely event that you require service. https://secure2.prodregister.com/pnaportal/index.aspx

Andrew sent me this: “Not sure if you’ve ever posted this before, I’ve never seen it. Someone posted in the Olympus SLR forum on DPreview with a picture of an Olympus Sponsored Racecar driven by James Hunt (famous driver). I googled that and found this commercial from ~1979 for Olympus featuring James Hunt.”
