According to one trusted source the E-M1 firmware upgrade will also add the new “Keystoning” feature:
“Keystoning will allow you to fix the distortion you see in architectural images. So buildings won’t “lean”…but the cool thing is you fix it in LIVE VIEW! You can see it as you fix it! Who needs a tilt shift lens? Olympus innovation is incredible.”
Next announcements: LX100 4K FT sensor and fixed zoom lens camera coming ealry next week. GM5, Silver E-M1, new 40-150mm PRO lens and firmware udpateds for E-M1 and GH4 coming right before Photokina (likely around September 14-15-16).

Video on top by Stephen Nguyen: “Here is a video I shot with the GH4 for a car expo teaser. The GH4 was mounted on a Varavon Birdycam 3-Axis Gimbal. I think by showing people that this camera can be used on professional shoots like this it will therefore encourage people to take the GH4 more seriously when it comes to cinematic or commercial applications.”
Second “Mirrorless Game of Thrones” episode where we compare the Olympus OM-D E-M1 and the Panasonic GH4 (Bestmirrorlesscamerareviews).
Amedeo: “I’d like to share a video that I shot recently during a short trip to Normandy with the GH3: https://vimeo.com/103959044”
Jonas: “A few hand-held shots with the OM-D E-M1: http://youtu.be/JqjBINx3VLk”
Josh: “I would like to introduce you to my Kickstarter campaign: the Heirloom, the “world’s first tomato for cameras”: http://kck.st/1piBPZO. There are *only 9 days left* in the campaign, and I have some very dedicated backers that really want to see it get funded. We need your help to get the word out. I have a brand new $20 model that may attract a lot of attention.
The Heirloom is a camera tripod alternative that looks like a tomato. 4/3 cameras will work very well with it. Mount your camera to the stem and off you go. It’s spherical (made out of a single piece of Cordura), so it’s versatile – tilted or level – on many kinds of surfaces that are not suited for tripods. There’s nothing else quite like it. The Heirloom didn’t start its life as a vegetable when I started working on it over two years ago, but in a strange way its features sort of required it to be a tomato.
I’ve gotten a few great mentions already, right alongside other top projects such as the Coolest and Cabin:

Alexander: “I’m Alexander Svet – professional photographer and Phase One Certified Professional. I and my team have created Film Styles Set for Capture One. This is a set of 100 color and b&w styles for Capture One.
We had worked on this styles more than two years, it was “long run”, but we have very good reviews from our customers. You can find all the details and sample images at http://captureonestyles.com“
After a very long time the new Panasonic FZ1000 is back in Stock in USA via BHphoto (Click here) and [shoplink 47941 ebay]Samys (Click here)[/shoplink].
If you want to learn more about the E-PL7 you can see a cool presentation site at Olympus UK (Click here). What’s definitely not so cool for now is the very low interest for the E-Pl7 at least in USA according to Amazon sales(and presales) ranking (Click here). You will have to scroll quite a couple of sites before to find the E-Pl7 :(
