43rumors reader Erwin just sent me that image and wrote: “I got this Lufthansa Miles&More WorldShop catalogue about 2 weeks ago, showing the OM-D for 1.099 €“. Yesterday we got notified that there is a similar deal in Holland (here is the pdf flyer).

I still don’t see that price drop in German Stores like Amazon Germany. Let me know if you find them in Germany and in the rest of Europe! Thanks!

UPDATE: Jarrkko sent me that message: “OM-DE with kit lens sells in Finland for 1 099,00€ (incl. VAT 24 %).  See more at: https://www.topshot.fi/category/491/olympus-om-d

UPDATE_2: In UK price drop too at SimplyElectronics.

Back in Stock after two years. The GF1 :)

Share

 

43rumors reader Jonas just made me notice that the GF1 is back im stock after a couple of years :) You can find it with the 14-42mm kit lens for a crazy $1099 at Amazon (Click here). That camera made history and I am sure some will buy it at that price! And of course it also became famous couple with the 20mm lens that is still the most sold mirrorless product at Amazon (Click here to see the ranking).

Yep, history never forgets what did matter :)

Guthrie & Olivia:My partner and I are doing a multi-month bicycle trip through the American Southwest, and I brought my Panasonic GH3  & 12-35 along to document, and do videography. The link is to our blog post, and (short, 4 minute) video. http://wp.me/p36V55-Ep. The video was shot and edited entirely with the equipment we carry by bicycle!

Metabones Speed Booster for MFT coming in April.

Share

I just have been informed that Metabones will launch the new Speed Booster adapter for MFT in April and not in March as previously reported on their website. They are still not sure what kind of lenses will supported yet but I have been told the adapters will be manually only (no electronic support). Price may be around $399 (still not final decision yet).

Officially the Nikon, Leica R, Contax C/Y, Contarex, ALPA and Rollei lenses are on roadmap plus OM lens adapter may come too. I am pushing Metabones to make an OM adapter as some of these lenses are owned by many 43rumors readers and by me :)
