Message from one of our readers: “Just in case anyone is interested the new Olympus Viewer 2 Software (Windows version) seems to work great with Linux and WINE. I’m running it on Gentoo Linux without any problems at all.
Stop Here if not interested in programming languages…
I tried earlier versions of one of their packages (Can’t remember which) but they relied on .Net which doesn’t easily work under Linux while this new version seems to be based off of C++. C++ usually (not always) yields faster programs and is much more compatible with my favorite OS (Linux). I’m a software engineer myself just so you know where I coming from.”

Night Shootout: Panasonic GF1 vs Canon 5d MarkII (Veoelmundo)
————————————————————————-

In March we thought Panasonic could release a new External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1External Live Viewfinder for the Panasonic GF1. Japanese dealers wrote us that they were experiencing a shortage and Panasonic didn’t deliver them any new EVF. Now Unwire.hk interviewed Mr. Inoue from Panasonic (click here to read the google english translation)

And that are the most interesting things he said:
1) There will be more prime lenses (43rumors will tell you more about it soon!)
2) We will upgrade the Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1Panasonic GH1 camera with many professional features
3) No new EVF for the GF1

Many of our readers were disappointed with the high price of the new Panasonic 8mm f/3.5 ED Fisheye Lens ($799 on Amazon and 799 Euro in Europe).

For comparison only:

The Sony NEX system offers the fisheye adapter for $149.99 but we have to see how much quality you loose by using an adapter on the 16mm lens (whoch costs $249.99))

And let us (and Panasonic) know what you think!
