Dario Viola:A 500mm f8 zeiss mirotar on the field, Contax CY mount the lens is a mirror tele photo, so very compact, no iris control so is fix on f8, complicate focusing, but it delivers an interesting image: https://vimeo.com/114368240

R.J. DeGuzman‎43rumors:Got my E-M5mk2 in yesterday and the rear dial didn’t work! D’oh! Oly shooters be sure to check your dials. With all the free time I had, because I didn’t have a fully functioning camera to play around with, I made a quick video clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBX2-h62jAM

Nathan:I’m Nate Cowlishaw, photographer, with 50,000 followers on Instagram @talking_tree. My Instagram community inspired me start a Kickstarter project and with no marketing budget we reached $8,000+ in just a few days: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wowflutes/the-great-southwestern-suzuki-adventure-0
For the last 15 years I’ve been working on a portfolio focused on the Desert Southwest. The Kickstarter project will help me reach a finale. I am doing this 9,500 mile, 65-90 day photography expedition with my Suzuki Vitara in Utah, Nevada, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Luisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, and Colorado. I will be taking unique photos that combine human culture & natural environments because in reality, humanity is truly inseparable from these natural landscapes. I wanted to make this available to a wider audience than just my followers and thought it might fit for your readers. Hope you enjoy it.

New 7-14mm and 8mm PRO lens Hands-On at Pen And Tell

Share

Bildschirmfoto 2015-03-14 um 10.48.43

Pen And Tell had the chance to “Play” with the upcoming two new Olympus PRO lenses. I will translate some of the key findings for you:

8mm f/1.8 Fisheye PRO lens:
– Compared to the Four Thirds fisheye lens the new MFT version is much smaller and lighter.
– The focus ring works wonderfully light
– Bokeh is good
– The lens is very sharp straight from max aperture

7-14mm f/2.8 PRO lens:
– Compared to the Four Thirds version lens the new MFT version is again much smaller and lighter.
– Autofocus is very fast and silent
– Focus wheel runs very smooth
– Close focus is impressive. I’ts 2cm from the end of the lens.
– Bokeh is very good
– No flare issues

The tester said “Both lenses leave you with a smile on your face“.

Reminder: Two of the future PRO lenses are listed here:
Olympus M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 7-14mm f/2.8 PRO Lens (here at BHphoto).
Olympus M.ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 300mm f/4 PRO Lens (here at BHphoto).
