KORIN launched a new AntiTheft But resistant camera bag on Kickstarter (Click here). They have launched successful campaigns in the past, and I’m sure this one will sell well too. If you want the ultimate peace of mind, watch this video to see how it works:
Panasonic issued the full year financial report (PDF available here) and a plan to restructure the company (PDF available here). The financial report contains no info about how the camera business is doing. But there is an important news:
Panasonic announced a major asset restructuring plan, abandoning the unprofitable, hopeless, and weakly competitive TV business, dissolving Panasonic Electric Company and reorganizing it into three independently operated companies according to categories, thereby activating the vitality of this century-old Japanese company. The home appliance sector was organized as the “Smart Life Company”, the air conditioning sector was organized as the “Air Quality Air Conditioning, Food Distribution Company”, and the lighting sector was organized as the “Electrical Engineering Company”.
The ‘Smart Life Company’ includes the camera business, and I think the only good news is that they only want to sell the TV business for now. Let’s see in the next years if the Lumix business will be kept alive or sold like Olympus did.

Photographylog shared an interesting tidbit in their OM-3 review conclusions:
OM System told us that the OM-3 is effectively the replacement for the much-loved Olympus Pen-F which was launched in 2016 and still remains popular today, explaining that it was impossible for them to make the Pen-F design fully weather-proof, something that the OM-3 notably offers.
