New GH3 videos roundup…

Share

Ballade in Louvain-la-Neuve, with the GH3 from Nicolas Degrave on Vimeo.

First test video by Outbackphoto. 72mbps all-i. test shot with the Nokton 25mm on vimeo. Snow video are ideal to check the dynamic range (vimeo).

By the way, I am getting feed-backs from dealers saying the GH3 is a very highly requested camera. Particularly in Europe. Hpe the production delay in Japane will not delay the good sales start!

Check the GH3 availability by clicking those links: [shopcountry 33624] and on Slidoo.

The Gariz new Olympus cap (on [shoplink 35526 ebay]eBay[/shoplink] or via Slidoo).

I got a short message from an anonymous sources saying “December 14th“. This should be the date Olympus may release the new [shoplink 29074]OMD E-M5[/shoplink] firmware update. May some other source can confirm this?
We have been told that the firmware should add several more options to the menu regarding EVF info and “one exciting feature that is sure to please users. ;)“. My guess as you know is that Olympus will add peaking mode. Let’s see if I am right!

Bye the way, the Gariz lens cap you see on top is availale on [shoplink 35526 ebay]eBay (Click here)[/shoplink]. And so their different colored Italian leather case for the [shoplink 35527 ebay]E-M5 (Click here)[/shoplink]. Full overview on Slidoo.

Connecting dots: E-M5 price drops brings me back to a rumor….

Share

Two months ago a new source told me that there would be a new OMD camera in very early 2013. And before the launch of that camera the E-M5 would get price drops in winter time. And as you know a couple of days ago we wrote about a (low FT2 rated) OMD camera rumor having more advanced video features.

Olympus itself said months ago that there is room for new OMD camera above and below the current E-M5. If we connect the dots…than can we really expect a new OMD camera soon?

(UPDATED) Lightning Deal on the E-M5 in UK! Price drop on France.

Share

I am so glad to finally share an European deal found by our reader Roelandt (Thanks!). AT 1pm London time the E-M5 body will get a Lightning deal at Amazon UK (Click here). I checked the Deal page of Amazon DE, but there is no E-M5 deal there.

UPDATE: There is a nice price drop in France (Thanks Lepidi). E-M5 body for 877 at Amazon France and 12-50mm kit for 1.058 (Click here).

This means that the E-M5 price may dropped world wide! Not only in USA.
