David Denicolò noticed that Flickr made a strange change the symbol of my Olympus em-5 from a SRL like to a compact one.Damn, they downgraded us just like that :)

Teemu: “I took some great footage in Koh Samet island in Thailand. Time-lapse was done with OMD Em5 mark2 and some footage with GH4. The aerial shots was done with Phantom 3. https://vimeo.com/147926780”

Lior: “The Panasonic G7 is a great little camera for 4K video. Here you can watch a video I shot in the south part of Tel Aviv city, during the evening and sitting in a pub. Uploaded to Youtube in 4K. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PD8C6xvKrM”

As reported on Mirrorlessrumors Epson started the mass production of their new 4.4 MP electronic viewfinder. While officially not confirmed the new Epson EVF should be used by the Leica SL. It’s highly likely that both Olympus and Panasonic will sue the same EVF on some of their future MFT cameras. Maybe on the E-M1II and GH5?

The new Epson EVF is the highest resolution EVF ever used by a camera. And here is the full spec table posted by Epson Japan:

Update to my previous Zonlai story: China Optica is selling two different versions (Cine and Non-Cine) of the new Zonlai MFT lens. You get them here on eBay:

Jurek: “When Panasonic released their V-Log L update for the GH4, “Sturm und Drang” erupted on all sides, with doom laden accounts of the demise of an electronics manufacturing giant. It was a failure, people cried rip off. For me, it’s the opposite. Having spent a little time experimenting, I’m excited by the prospects this feature brings to the GH4’s image making process. Hope you enjoy. https://vimeo.com/147546148“
