Well, year 2014 is over and I hope 2015 will bring us even more new cameras than 2014! We already know the E-M5II is coming in early february and also two new Panasonic MFT cameras (one with and one without 4K). There is also a high end fixed lens Olympus camera to come too. But now let’s see what 43rumors readers dreamcamera for 2015 is:
Loading ...We will get a new MFT camera soon. The 10,000 fps low cost and Micro Four Thirds mount camera got founded at Kickstarter. Quite an amazing camera!

Surflove: “I recently had a few photos of Sydney’s summer storms featured in the news and papers. I used the Live Comp feature on the Olympus E-M1 to capture lightning and storm clouds. I believe it’s a great function to capture these things (and many others) and I wrote an extensive article about it on my blog on what it is, how it works and how it can be used: http://surflove.com.au/chasing-storms/ Not sure if it classifies as a ‘rumour’ but it definitely is a unique feature only found on a 43 sensor camera, which not so many people know about and even less actually use, so I thought I’d ask if you were interested in sharing it.”

Back at Photokina Olympus displayed their “squarish” Lens-Camera prototypes. But at the recent Engadget Fes 2014 held at Arts Chiyoda 3331 in Tokyo they displayed a more advanced rounded and very Sony QX alike version. Our reader Alvin (Thanks!) shared those pictures and added some info:
Don’t know much about the specs but it has:
Open SDK for development
Shutter Button on top
Three tripod mounting locations (custom accessories?)
it’s part of the new Olympus Hack & Make program.
The specs are listed ont he Olympus site and are:
– Android ios
– 16 megapixel sensor. No info if it’s E-M1 (with PDAF) or E-M5 (without PDAF) alike.
– Connected by WiFi
– takes both stills and videos
– Optical / digital zoom, configurable for various shooting parameters
– Save Allowed still images in RAW or JPEG format
– Micro Four Thirds mount
There is no info when Olympus will bring those prototypes to the mass market.
And here are the more “official” Olympus images:
