Days ago I leaked the image of the new Panasonic Micro Four Thirds Cine camera (I had to remove the image on the owners request). And today it’s official: Panasonic registered the new DC-BGH1 cine MFT camera in Russia.
No info yet about specs, price and release date…

I just got this:
Olympus staff made redundant in UK today, some already gone in France and more to come across Europe in coming weeks!
Around 2/3 of workforce lost their roles in UK today.
Nothing published, but heard from Olympus employee whose last day was today!
Don’t know if this is a consequence of BREXT or also of the JIP agreement…
Th new Olympus E-M10IV is now in Stock and shipping in the USA at Adorama, Bhphoto. GetOlympus. Amazon.
Robin Wong:
I have been receiving quite a lot of questions lately about whether to buy an Olympus camera or not, following the announcement of Olympus being sold to JIP, and exiting the camera business. I share your frustration, but taking a look deeper I think there is very little to be concerned about. Olympus is still operating as usual until the end of the year, and as JIP takes over, the global business will continue on, with full consumer and product support, that much I know. JIP and Olympus have made several announcements, and we know that the brand Olympus will be maintained, and the recently announced updated lens roadmap will also be fulfilled. Of course, I cannot speak for you, but the reason I bought and use Olympus OM-D system extensively was because it works for me and my photography, and that is not going to change. I can’t predict the future, no one can, but more news will come to light in the beginning of October when the agreement from both parties are firmed up.
We got new EU deals:
There are now a ton of deals on those special deal pages: Olympus Germany, Olympus France, Olympus Italy, Olympus Spain, Olympus UK, Olympus Netherland.
Topaz released the new version of DeNoise AI. And til October 9th you get it for $50 (if you use our checkout code “RUMOR“). The Utility Bundle, which includes DeNoise AI, Gigapixel AI, Sharpen AI, and JPEG to RAW AI, is also on sale through the same dates and is discounted to $165 (regularly $249.99).
Major new features:
UPDATE: I have been asked to remove the image. Anyway, what matters is that it proved new Panasonic Cine MFT camera will be released soon.
Here was the original leaked text:
Leaked new Panasonic M4/3 body from XXX Panasonic User.
He is a user operating video shoots with Panasonic and Sony, and Panasonic gave him the opportunity to try out the product before released it. He has also worked with Panasonic on S1H.
He claims: This is a product aimed at the pro, not for everyone, but for a few.
He says that there seems to be no one feature he desperately wants to get into this camera.
If you have any info on this camera drop me a message at 43rumors@gmail.com. Thanks!
