The Russian agency registered a new Olympus camera. The code of the camera is “IM006”. But I can tell you via my trusted sources this is for the new E-M10III. And the Russian registration spoiled a few details confirming our rumors. The IM006 uses the BLS-50 battery, the BCS-5 charger and it comes in three kits (body only, EZ kit and double kit zoom).
Expect the E-M10III to be announced within the next 6-8 weeks!

Mike: “Sharing with you guys a recent short film I made for a great organization in the US: Your Grateful Nation…a profile video of retired US Army Green Beret Ryan Jones https://vimeo.com/215226008. It’s first piece I shot with the Gh5 after receiving my preordered cams. I’m thrilled with this camera, the 10 bit internal cuts great with the DJI OSMO Raw.”
Robert: “Here is some GH5 V Log footage which may be of interest to 43Rumors readers. I’m astonished by the GH5 quality, even in difficult lighting, and the IBIS allows great freedom to shoot everything handheld. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y6G55EOC2Xs“

If they would have made the lens with f/2.8 aperture it would have been considerably larger
Lens sales are strong and only recently the production did catch up with the high demand of the lens

Patrik: “There is always alot of talk about fullframe vs m43 in different forums. I owned a a7 and a gx7, and was able to lend a em1mk2. Here are some raw files from both the em1mk2+12-40/2.8, gx7+12-40/2.8 and a7+24-70/4. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tqhi278u4d3x6mv/AACKBzGXfQp-XKLqAmBWp9qQa?dl=0 I tried to make the same kind of frame using the same kind of settings (sometime manual, some times P, A or S). Maybe it is a good compare, maybe not. I’ll just let the viewer decide ? ”
