Lior: “Some days ago, Olympus CEO said that the company has “no intention to create a video oriented camera”. But, the true is that E M1 II can produce some very nice video footage as you can see here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4H310SYOSg
This was filmed during my holiday in the French alps. The sad thing is that Olympus can make this camera even greater in video by improving some aspects and by solving some bugs, like WB changing during filming, adding auto ISO to M video etc. They promised us those things more than a year ago in an interview (https://www.dpreview.com/articles/2574196907/exclusive-interview-olympus-r-d-on-continued-e-m1-mark-ii-development) but nothing ever happened since than!
Its really sad, the competition have improved (Panasonic G9, Fujifilm X-H1), Olympus already have the right tool with a strong hardware, please just put some more effort to software – firmware and make it updated. “

Dayong Li shared these first pictures shot with the new Laowa 4mm f/2.8 Micro Four Thirds lens.
Laowa writes about this lens:
Featuring a 210° angle of view, this lens delivers unique circular fisheye field of view on Micro four thirds cameras. The ultra-wide angle view allows photographers to create 360° panorama with ease. Despite the unique & ultra-wide perspective, the lens only weighs 0.3 pounds (135g).
Specifications can be found in separate email attachment.Exact shipping date (mis-late 2018) and pricing are to be confirmed.

Julien “Last month i have been to Siberia to cross by foot and to camp on top of the Baikal Lake, while frozen.
The OMD EM1 mkii join me during this adventure so I took pictures I shared there: http://www.toucan.photo/en/russia-discover-the-frozen-baikal-lake/
The EM1 (and pro lenses) worked very well in cold weather, you only need to take care of the batteries.”
