zone-10.com came out with some predictions which we are reporting here.
“So for now till the end of 2009, our predictions at Zone-10 are as follows:”
1. Two Micro Four-Thirds models plus no less than six lenses including accessories
2. At least one additional new (or evolutionary) Four-Thirds DSLR model
3. Two if not three new Zuiko Digital lenses and one of them is a very impressive macro prime
4. Announcements concerning complimentary technologies
.
43rumors.com opinion
1) Yes to the two models, and no confirmation over the release of six lenses
2) We confirm it
3) We partially confirm this rumor
4) ??? What does it mean?
P.S.: Thanks “DV” for sharing the news!
I receive a lot of “rumors” these daysand most of them are garbage. I am still lagging behind with Panasonic news but I bet we can catch something big this summer. I am really interested to see how Panasonic will answer Olympus m4/3 camera.
I have received some emails with questions. Here are the short answers: No, I do not work for Olympus…Yes we have more rumors planned for the next days…No, I won’t reveal my entire name….Yes we really believe our rumors could be real….No! We are not freaking out!
So back to a little bit of everything, as you probably know the Fujifilm FinePix F200 has been reviewed by dpreview and NO! it doesn’t beat the Panasonic LX3. Quite surprising after the big Fuji announcements. It seems the first generation of their tecnology is not as revolutionary as expected.
For guys like me who go crazy for film there is the new Voigtlander Bessa III avaiable at cameraquest. Nice to see that film never dies. And please don’t start the discussion which is the better medium (digital or film). They are different media for different purposes and different philosophies. And remember the camera doesn’t make you a better photographer! Also, why am I getting so excited for the Olympus MicroFourThirds camera? Because I want a simple and fast digital medium which I can carry easily with me. I have a work trip in Australia planned for late July but my trusted sources already told me that probably I won’t be able to get the digital Pen camera :(
Thanks to all people who support us. We could not go forward without your help! Thank you all!
