Our reader Russ searched for the new GM5 and found it right there on the Panasonic site (Click here). It’s a sort of selfie camera to take pictures of our best part…I guess :)
Joke aside, Panasonic is really a global leader in the electronic toilet market!

Instructables explaines you how to build a Lego Dolly spending $10 only. And as you can see from the image on top he used it for his E-Pm1. All you need to build it is that stuff:

This is the how-to text from Instructables:
I cut the Remote Switch and I soldered Jack 3.5 connectors for use with the Arduino and the remote switch.
The relay I soldered wires to be connected to Arduino. Everything we connect to each other: arduino -> Relay -> jack -> jack connector for Olympus -> and my camera.
Next, I added Stepper Motor Driver to Arduino. To him I joined a stepper motor, and, 5V adapter or battery pack.
Another thing I want to connect the joystick. He will control the speed of the wheels, and frame rate. The rate will be adjusted by tilting the X-axis and Y-axis and after pressing the button, the value will be deducted.
I uploaded code via Arduino program. The program includes both shoot camera and rotating the stepper motor.

SLR Magic 10mm T2.1 on GH4 4K World premiere, the very 1st shots from Seb Farges on Vimeo.
Seb farges posted this first video made with the brand new SLR Magic 10mm T2.1 Micro Four Thirds lens and he writes:
My very first impressions : solid, heavy (420g), compact, sharp at full aperture T2.1, only 2cm minimum focus distance.
The ND filter : good first impressions, and two great options on it : lever and hard stop ! Perfect for video !
The press release of the new lens can be read here at 43rumors.

What you see here is the new Zeiss Otus 85mm f/1.4. And from what I heard this lens should beat the current Zeiss Otus 55mm optical performance and therefore become the best lens on market! It comes in Canon and Nikon mount and if you adapt it on a MFT camera you would get a nice 170mm fast prime lens. Or just use the Metabones Speedbooster (here at BH) and you will go back to the “original” focal length and gain 1 stop too!
Don’t know if such a lens is something for you considering the $4,000 price :(
