The Olympus 300mm PRO lens is in Stock at KenmoreCamera (Click here). This may well be the only lens in Stock right now for the regular price :)
Like I told you a few days ago this lens is no more available on preorder at Amazon US. I guess we wills till have to wait months before Olympus will produce enough of those…
For months now I am repeating that Olympus will launch three new lenses! And Nokishita just confirmed my rumors were 100% spot on and leaked those lor resolution images fo the new lenses:
The 25mm f/1.2 PRO
The 12-100mm f/4.0 PRO
The 30mm f/3.5 macro

Anonymous: “Upcoming OMD EM1 + PRO 12-40mm f/2.8 kit sale. My local (USA) dealer told me yesterday that Olympus will be offering the subject bundle for $1400 within a month or so. Quite a bargain as they try to clear out EM-1 inventory.”
Fredrik: “I made a video comparing ISO from 400 – 6400 on skin tones with the GX85 and the Nocticron 42,5mm. I think it looks very good up to 1600. From 3200 and up you should consider applying some noise reduction.

Thomas: “Hi Andrea, I was recently testing the GX8 in Hamburgs “entertainment” district and also made a comparison of the GX8 and GX80/85 in London. My point of view is how these cams work in street photography… GX8 at Reeperbahn/Hamburg: http://bit.ly/28VHvYK GX8 and GX80/85 in London: http://bit.ly/2c2zYbP“
Olympus launched a new E-M1 kit which includes the 12-40mm PRO lens. You can buy it for $1,299 at BHphoto (Click here) and Adorama (Click here). The lens alone sells for $899 which means you pay $499 only for the E-M1. A nice deal…but will you pull the trigger on that one knowing the E-M1II will be announced on September 19? :)
One of my trusted sources saw the new Olympus 30mm f/3.5 macro lens and told me that:
it’s a bit longer than the 25mm/f1.8.
No focus limiter switch
front lens is small (more or less like the 17mm/f1.8)
Filter diameter was 46mm (if I remember it right)
Close focusing distance 2cm
1:1,25
Price will be around or little bit less than $400
Olympus will soon launch the new 30mm macro along the 25mm f/1.2 PRO and the 12-100mm f/4.0 PRO lens. Olympus has a press ocnference scheduled for September 19.
