Yesterday a source teased me with a message. He wrote that Olympus has something “BIG” coming “soon” after the PEN-F. He actually wrote:

“Next big thing will be sooner than you think”

As the source used the anonymous message box the only way to send him questions is by writing a post: I may ask you (the source) if you mean the E-M1II is coming soon? And do you know something about the Full Frame Olympus?

Thanks a lot :)

After the 28mm FF f/2.0 patent Egami spotted another new Olympus Full Frame lens patent describing three new lenses:

1. 20mm f/1.4
2. 24mm f/1.4
3. 35mm f/1.4

The patent shows detailed optical performance graphs. All three lenses have huge distortion and chromatic aberrations. But Olympus probably did choose to have them corrected in camera anyway.

Such kind of patent opens many questions: Is Olympus going to launch a new system at photokina? Will Panasonic also be on board of it?
