Panasonic might change their mind and do APS-C L-mount cameras afterall

Share

This info is from trusted sources that shared many correct rumors in the past. So I am 99% confident it’s true. This is what they said:

  • Sigma is very, very unhappy with the progress of L-Mount. They are urging Panasonic to focus much more on this system
  • They are really thinking of an APS-C entry level system based on L-Mount
  • They now see Canon as biggest competitor in Video segment

Panasonic stated a couple of times they do not plan to make an APS-C L-mount camera to not cannibalize the MFT system. Well…they might change their mind soon enough and it would be bad news for the MFT folks.

Robin Wong: Why Is Olympus JPEG Superior?

Share

Robin Wong:

There are some secret sauce in Olympus JPEG in camera processing, many reviewers including large sites like DPReview has praised Olympus since many years ago for getting the JPEG right, and even went as far as claiming other manufacturers can learn a thing or two from Olympus. I share some of the interesting facts about Olympus JPEG, featuring Fine Detail Processing to achieve greater image sharpness and mitigate Moire problems, adaptive sharpening algorithm based on lens attached, sharpness loss compensation for diffraction and many more innovative JPEG goodness that squeezes the best out of your Olympus cameras. I also share some tips on how to optimize Olympus JPEG files. Even if you are a RAW shooter, you may want to pay attention because JPEG in camera can affect your photography workflow too, even if you shoot purely RAW.
