It’s official! Photoscala reports that Schneider withdraw the plan they had to release the three MFT lenses in 2015. So we will NEVER get those lenses! Actually the decision has not to do with a change regarding their specific Micro Four Thirds strategy. The company completely changed their focus. They will now move away from the classic Photo Lens market! They will stay in the market for Large Format lenses for Linhof, Alpa and Cambo and develop lenses for the Industrial and Cine market.
That’s bad news althaugh….Schneiders proposed MFT focal length lenses are already available within the Panasonic/Olympus lens repertoire.

Blkphoto: “I bought a Rode NTG 4+ the other day and wanted to test it out and see how it performs so I put it on a boom and hooked it up to my Tascam DR-70D and filmed with my Panasonic GH4. I recorded the audio separately and also sent the audio straight to the camera. I switch back and forth between the different audio sources and labeled them so you know what you are listening to. I leveled everything out to about -12db and peaking at about -6db. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDPDyJf32Jk

Anonymous: “Here is a video about an expedition i participated one year ago. It was a very small expedition to an uncharted area in Fireland and i filmed it with the GH3 and Panasonic and Walimex lenses. There had been very tough circumstances and i had to reduce everything to the absolut minimum. The GH3 and especially the Panasonic 12-35/2.8 performed very good under snow, rain and storm and due to this very bad weather conditions i´m really happy with the result of the movie. It´s maybe not this super nice color corrected piece of art, but for me in this case the story about our adventure was in the foreground and therefor with this setup i had a perfect companion. https://vimeo.com/129314206. I also made a lot of pictures with the Olympus OMD EM5 and Panasonic lenses and some pictures of the landscapes of Fireland are in this album. Enjoy! https://www.flickr.com/photos/leopoldfuchs/sets/72157651775474712“

Erik: “I’m a filmmaker from Seattle whose work you’ve featured on your blog a couple times. I’ve just finished post production on an experimental multiple exposure video/photo project using the Panasonic GH4’s 4K photo mode. I’m very pleased with the results and I loved the easy streamlined nature of using the 4K photo mode to create high quality video and stills simultaneously. The video is available here: https://youtu.be/dVVFOTB7IbM, and the photos are available at www.erikhecht.com/hybrid.”
