ANAMORPHIC PEOPLE thru SLR Magic 1.33x-40 from Seb Farges on Vimeo.

Sebastian (video on top): “Here is some street videography taken in cinemascope with SLR Magic anamorphot 1.33x-40. As you can see rack focus works good and is easy to do. The combo with the prime lens is quite compact and lightweight.

I got three mails from readers about that E-m1II price listed at Amazon. Please don’t buy it because for sure it is NOT a legit sale.

Still no confirmation on the new Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera rumor….

image above shows the current Blackmagic Pocket MFT cinema Camera.

As you may remember a month ago I got that rumor about a new Blackmagic Pocket MFT Camera saying this:

M43 mount. 4K, same or almost the same size, better battery life, H265 possible. Might see it at NAB although will not ship then (lol – Blackmagic shipping on time).

The rumor is from a new source and so far I wasn’t able to confirm it via other sources. The NAB show is opening on April 22, let’s hope on that day the rumor will turn out to be correct!
