Gerald Undone created quite a big buzz because of his “accusations” towards Lumix and Influencers. I found the guys from PetaPixel gave a balanced and respectful answer you should absolutely listen to:
Also CineD shared their opinion about this:
And here is Sean Robinson from Lumix sharing his thoughts:
New Panasonic (MFT?) Camera announcement on June 5?
Our reader Jakub sent me a link to a ‘leaked’ information about a new camera. Now, if I shared this link publicly someone would get in trouble and probably get fired. So I’m keeping it under wraps for now, unless some other website publishes it and forces me to report it. In essence, this ‘leak’ tells us this:
- On 5 June Panasonic will announce a new camera.
- This camera will NOT be Full Frame
I see three options:
- It will be a new MFT camera
- A compact fixed-lens camera (possibly the successor to the LX100).
- It is an APS-C L-mount (I think this is very unlikely).
We know that Panasonic has registered three new Lumix cameras in China. One is for the new Lumix S9. The other two cameras have yet to be announced. it sounds pretty unusual for Panasonic to unveil a new camera two weeks only after the major S9 announcement. But the “leak” seems pretty accurate to me. I still don’t know what to expect, all I got is info from a new source saying this is a new MFT camera…but this is not a confirmed info yet.
Please drop me a message at 43rumors@gmail.com or use this contact box if you have some more info to share! Stay tuned folks!

New Panasonic LUMIX Lab now available on Google Play
You can now install it from the Google Play store.
Our read Ryan told me:
After playing with it I see the app gives you the ability to share any downloaded LUTs using the standard Android share menu. This means you can email them or upload them to cloud storage like Google Drive. Then you can use them in desktop apps (Photoshop, Resolve, etc) or copy them to cameras not currently supported by the Lab App.

Just released: New Topaz Video AI 5.1
Topaz released a new major Video AI 5.1 update (features page here). Just recently I told you that Topaz has completely redone the website for their AI software. Check out the new pages at Photo Ai, Video AI, GigaPixel AI.
Press text:
There are several major changes that we’re excited to announce:
1. Instant Rendering (Experimental)
Video AI now renders previews as soon as you click ‘Play’.
Instant renders make the timeline more interactive and allow you to directly compare models with shorter wait times.
2. Frame Interpolation for DaVinci Resolve OFX (macOS + Windows)
Access Apollo, Aion, and Chronos directly from DaVinci Resolve. Convert to slow motion at up to 16x interpolation and make use of Resolve’s retiming controls for smooth speed-ramping.
To use Frame Interpolation in Resolve, be sure to follow the guide posted here. 12
3. New multi-GPU options (Video AI Pro)
Video AI now includes two multi-GPU modes. The existing “All GPUs” option now supports NVIDIA cards running TensorRT models, leading to major utilization increases for systems with 2+ NVIDIA cards. This mode is now named “Single video” under “GPU Settings”.
The second mode, “Multiple videos”, optimizes for large export queues when running on systems with multiple GPUs. We’ll have more to share about this Video AI Pro feature when it launches in June.
4. New Welcome Screen
Quickly reopen projects and resume renders using the new Welcome Page. This is a home for recent projects and includes the ability to select favorites for easy access.
5. Preferences UI Refresh
Navigate settings using the new preferences sidebar with expanded categories and new tooltips.
6. Colorspace settings added to Video Input Options
Set custom colorspace, color primaries, color trc, and color range for video inputs with metadata issues.
