Just got word that Panasonic plans to announce a new MFT camera soon. Just give me a couple of days to check what camera it is. As far as I heard the GX8 release is planned for late August/September. So this should not be the GX8 coming in May…

Goodbye No More (4K Street Video) – GH4 and Atomos Shogun from Nick Driftwood on Vimeo.

Nick (video on top): “Here’s a video of 96fps upscaled to 4K on the GH4 (mixed with some natural 4K). 96fps isn’t too bad at all if you finely tune sharpen luminance. https://vimeo.com/122715656”

JR: “Here’s a short horror film that I directed, shot entirely on the Panasonic GH4. The first-person sequence was shot with the GH4 and SLR Magic 10mm T2.1 mounted on a custom helmet rig worn by the lead actor. I hope you and your readers enjoy it: https://youtu.be/cDKmZD7LaS8

This is a bit strange I know but Olympus also announced that it will ship the E-PL6 in Europe and North America too. The most attractive feature of the camera is it’s price. It sells with lens for $299 at Adorama (Click here).

Olympus also announced that it will ship the Stylus 1s to USA too. Preorder at Adorama (Click here).
