Image on top shows the current Leica SL (Typ 601)
Leica will soon announce a new SL Full frame mirrorless camera. And as confirmed via Nokishita this one is made by Panasonic. Seems like for Panasonic it would be terribly easy to launch their own branded Panasonic FF camera ….if the market requires that.
UPDATE: Our sources CONFIRM Panasonic has made a new FF camera for Leica
Jordan and Chris just posted their Panasonic GX9 video review (GX9 at BHphoto. Adorama. Amazon. FocusCamera).

Plenty of news on the facebook E-M1II group and the GH5 group.
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. “
Olympus keeps adding new reconditioned stuff on a Daily Basis. You now get the 25mm PRO lens for $899 and the E-M10II for $299 at GetOlympus (Click here).
