It may be a surprise for you but TheCameraStoreTV team picked the GM1 and not the E-M1 as one of the best three cameras of the year (the other two being the K-3 and A7r). And you know what? I tend to agree. The E-M1 is certainly a more capable camera. But the GM1 is always with me since day one. So easy to keep it in your jacket!

P.S.: I will soon launch a poll to see what was the best MFT camera for the 43rumors reader community.

Michal: “Olympus CZ issued a new ad called “Photo brick”. It is currenty on web only in czech language (so not that funny for those who dont understand fully), but still you might be interested to see it. http://www.fotocihla.cz/ It is a joke about Olympus issuing a new accessories for those who feel strange about shooting with the light Olympus cameras. To complete the joke Olympus CZ even sells it for 799 CZK (approx. 30 EUR). http://www.olympusobchod.cz/katalog/prislusenstvi/ostatni-yqfqw/olympus-fotocihla-ART06218. I hope they add the ENG subtitles and let it live its own life on the web world wide. link of my blog – http://www.samudranil.in/blog/?id=69252778574“
