Six new SLRmagic 8mm MFT lens tests…

Share

I got many mails from 43ruumors readers who tested the new SLR Magic 8mm f/4.0 MFT lens (here at BHphoto):

Jan: “I just wanted to let you know, that I published a review of the new SLR Magic 8mm F4. As far as I know it is the first review of this lens:
http://www.janundseinekamera.de/slr-magic-8mm-f4-review/”

Michael: “Hi admin, not a rumour but a link to some sample images and impressions of the SLR Magic 8mm f/4 fir your next “bit of everything” post! Cheers! https://vimeo.com/210273446”

Tom: “I put together a review on SLR Magic’s new 8mm lens:
https://tomsphotoworld.wordpress.com/2017/03/27/slr-magic-8mm-f4-for-m43-solid-capable-quirky-and-really-fun/
It is a very fun lens, and the image quality is quite sufficient, especially considering the price. I think it is a very compelling option for people looking at an ultrawide lens for m43. ”

Avril: “I was part of the program to test that lens. Here is the link, if you want to share it. https://vimeo.com/210899264“

Emeric: “I’ve realised this review of the SLR Magic 8mm f/4: https://youtu.be/Z1uZnckyzyU It’s a real-life test, with beautiful footages. Shot on Inspire 2, GX80 and GH4.”

Matt: “I have produced a new review on the SLR Magic 8mm f4 wide angle MFT lens.  For your interested readers here is the link: http://alpineworks.smugmug.com/SLR-Magic-8mm-f4-Lens-Review/“

Longing – Anamorphic Scenes from Jurek Ugarow on Vimeo.

Jurek (video on top): “Initially I wasn’t going to send you the link to this footage, as it started out simply as a test for finding a taking lens for use with the SLR Magic 2x Anamorphot. But in light of the recent GH5 spat and the constant harping on about pixels and features, bit-rates and bit depth, I realized as I filmed more footage, that in the end it’s about image quality and the ability to convey emotions. I was reminded again how blessed we are with the current state of audio and video technology, with tools that cover every possible budget and skill level. I know the GH5 will be a stellar camera for my purposes (and I hope to get one at release), but the venerable GH4 still has life left in it.
Filmed using a clean version of another venerable classic, the Canon FD 50mm f/1.4 lens. The SLR Magic Variable ND filter was also used outside.”

Olympus officially registered two new cameras (One is a Stylus and one the new E-M10III)

Share

Olympus registered two new camera models with the code “IM005” and “IM006”. We can share some more info through our sources:

  1. The “IM005” is a new Stylus camera as in previous documents we saw it uses the LI-92B battery.
  2. The “IM006” is probably the new E-M1oIII camera. Our sources said this is the next system camera Olympus will announce this year.

Once registered It usually takes a couple of months before these cameras get officially announced.
