Zeiss: “We would like to do MFT lenses but we have limited resources”

Share

Zeiss managers told at BestMirrorlessCameraReviews that there are lots of things you’d like to do, but you have limited resources and power so you need to concentrate on one thing:

At the moment, the MFT system is quite valued, but as for the willingness to spend big money on lenses, to see this as an investment as you do on a SLR, we are not 100% sure it is there. On a full frame SLR system, the lens is really the investment part. The camera is what you change, and people are used to this. In the case of less-than full frame systems, we still don’t understand.

No MFT lenses for now :(

(FT4) Panasonic GH4 firmware update coming on November 19-21?

Share

There are still some small or few major quirks that need to be fixed on the GH4. Among them we have the fatc that in HDMI 25p is still outputting 50i. But there is a good news coming via the Atomos itself:

I’m hearing rumors that Panasonic may be announcing this patch at InterBEE which is November 19th-21 with the actual patch being released shortly afterwards, again fingers crossed!

It’s good to hear Panasonic is alreayd working on a new firmware update. Some extra wishes form our readers? :)
