(FT3) 100th anniversary OM-D camera release scheduled for first half 2018?

Share


Image on top shows the Titanium E-M5II (here on Amazon).

A source reported that the Olympus 100th anniversary OM-D  will be “announced 1st-2nd quarter 2018“.

It’s still unclear if this special version will be only a special OM-D color or kit version or some kind of new camera with new specs.

E-M1II pattern noise issue tested by J.S.Park

Share

J.S.Park sent me this message:

You may know the Sony sensor having phase detection pixel shows banding in strong light. Olympus E-M1 Mark II having such Sony sensor also shows similar phenomenon.  Sony camera shows banding while Olympus E-M1 Mark II shows pattern noise. I have thoroughly tested it  and posted it in my blog:
http://lenswork.tistory.com
I’d like to share my findings.

It appears this is a common issue on all sensor with phase detection pixels. Don’t think there is a workaround yet. And don’t get alarmed because this happens in certain very specific and rare conditions only.
