ReallyRightStuff (Click here) announced the new L-Plate for the E-M10II.

And Roberto sent me this:

“Since it was difficult (yet) to find any kind of supporting grip for my new Lumix GX8, I just had an epiphany and tried out the L-Grip / Bracket for my Sony A7 (without the vertical part)… and voila, works like a charm :) It´s almost as if it were designed for the Lumix as well!
Here are some pix:

It adds pretty good stability with the bigger zooms or the Nocticron, and costs only about 10 Dollars from HK! I think it´s a nice solution, until they come up in a few months with a proprietary one…
So, you might want to share this with all the lucky GX8 owners out there? ;)”

a bit of everything…

Jan: “after I got my Panasonic 14-140mm 3.5-5.6, I was unsure, if I should keep my Panasonic 45-150mm. This is why I made a comparison test of the two lenses. I thought you and your readers might be interested in such a comparison. You can watch the video on Youtube (https://youtu.be/n_m17MmD2_8) or read it at my blog (http://www.janundseinekamera.de/panasonic-14-140mm-ii-vs-panasonic-45-150mm-comparison-review/).“
