(FT4) Olympus 8mm f/1.8 mockup lens to be shown at CP+

Share

The current “official” Olympus roadmap doesn’t include a wide prime lens info…yet.

Next week on February 5 at 5-6am London time Olympus will announce the new E-M5II, the update 14-150mm II lens and new accessories. And a trusted source also told me that it’s highly likely Olympus will show the mockup of a new 8mm f/1.8 fisheye lens. That lens will be launched in Spring and ship in Summer.

Capion Studio:https://vimeo.com/117715659 s800 Evo Test Flight with the Zenmuse + Panasonic GH4. This slightly aging Hexacopter is still a real contender in the field of aerial platforms. The s800 Evo paired with the GH4 Zenmuse results in a rock solid unit that is just about up for any task. We took it around our neighborhood and here is the results. No warp stabilization has been applied.

Michael:I have done a spot of thinking and experimenting. Which has led to the death of the “flat” profile misconception. And the regaining of all the time wasted on fiddling with, and rendering of, technically inferior footage.
