(FT3) Olympus 25mm f/1.8 to be announced in February?

Share

Image on top shows the Panasonic 20mm pancake.

I got info from a source saying that Olympus will also launch a new 25mm f/1.8 lens along the new low-end OMD model that is going to be announced in late January-early February. He told me the lens is a tiny bit thicker than the current Panasonic 20mm f/1.7 lens and cheaper than the Leica 25mm f/1.4.

I hope more sources can tel me soon if the rumor is correct :)

Olympus E-M1 advertising with Japanese Football Star.

Keisuke Honda with the E-M1

A couple of days ago I told you that Panasonic hired famous Japanese actress Haruka Ayase to promote the GM1. Well, it looks like also Olympus has quite some money to spend! They hired Japanese Football Star Keisuke Honda to promote their Olympus E-M1 (Source: DC.watch). There is also a video on youtube showing him talking about the E-M1. But it’s Japanese and I do not understand a word. But can a Football Player really tell us something seriously interesting about the camera? :)
