Anonymous:I have had my copy of the Olympus 40-150mm f/2.8 Pro lens for three days. I mounted the lens on an Olympus OM-D E-M1 camera body [with firmware V2.1], and I quickly discovered a bug in the AF. If you focus on a subject a few feet away, the AF will work fine, but if the next shot is a distance subject, AF will fail until you have tried it [i.e. pressing the shutter release halfway down] as many as three times. Doing these steps in reverse, that is, distant subject to near subject has the same problem. I was about to report this bug to Olympus when I discovered that they now have a new camera firmware release V2.2. I installed V2.2 in my E-M1 camera and tested the AF again. Amazingly, the problem was fixed. Bravo to Olympus for staying on top of their firmware fixes.

Hi, this is Thomas from COSYSPEED.

It’s super cool that we can have one of our new CAMSLINGER models as a giveaway for your readers! I’m sure many of them would like this new concept of carrying a mirrorless camera (or Superzooms or smaller DSLRs aswell) on the hip or as a sling bag. It’s not a solution to transport large amounts of gear as the bags are on the smaller side, but for daily live when out shooting with smaller gear it will be a very quick and good solution.

Keep on going with your great blog and many thanks, Thomas

UPDATE on the Sony 5 axis system. They say it’s not taken from Olympus.

I don’t know if that’s just a “marketing statement” (like Nikon does when they say they use their own design sensor) or the truth. But Sony managers said the 5 axis stabilization from the A7m2 is not taken from Olympus. It’s a proprietary Sony tech. I have to say it sounds quite nonsense to not use Olympus knowledge when you own a big stake int that company. Maybe all Sony did is to adapt it for a Full Frame sensor and that alone “justifies” the “proprietary” statement.
