Olympus patented a new les design for two crazy cool MFT tele zooms:
1) 300-500mm f/2.8-4.0 MFT lens (33,8 cm lens lenght)
2) 200-300mm f/2.8-4.0 MFT lens (22,8 cm lens lenght)
For comparison: The current Olympus 300mm f/4.0 PRO lens has a length of 22,7cm. The 300-500mm MFT lens would be 10cm longer. I think Olympus should really bring that one on the market! So let’s make a poll:

Roberto spotted the GH4 on clearance in a UK store at Currys in Purley, Croydon. That store is no more ordering a new Stock of GH4 cameras and is likely to wait til the GH5 gets announced. Photokina is coming, let’s just hope Kumamoto didn’t delay the GH5 shipment time!
