This is why youtuber Dave Maze (Kinotika) switched to Olympus!

Dave Maze:

The Olympus EM1 Mkii is now the camera I shoot video with for most of Kinotika thanks to a huge firmware update! I have noticed that not many people are talking about this camera on YouTube and I really want to share my thoughts on this amazing camera. Even though the Olympus E-M1 mk2 is a bit old by now…the new V3 firmware breathes new life into it…making it one of the best all-around video/ photo hybrid cameras out there in my opinion!

Olympus says they are developing a new 500mm MFT lens!

The Japanese website Newsswitch interviewed Shigemi Sugimoto from Olympus:

  • In 2018 we couldn’t launch new products  because of the factory relocation
  • The policy is now to announce multiple lenses every year from this year.
  • We will continue to launch cameras in three areas: entry, middle and high end level.
  • A super telephoto lens that reaches 1000mm in FF terms is under development, and it will reach 2000mm with a 2x teleconverter
  •  True value of MTF lies in scenes where mobility, image stabilization, and tripods cannot be used. It is possible to provide photos with a high degree of freedom that cannot be achieved by other companies.
  • E-M1X has introduced many of the world’s first technologies.
  • The PEN series has been highly acclaimed by women. The point is how to fight in the mature mirrorless market.
  • We are considering automating lens production. There are many areas that require high-precision work and are difficult to replace with robots. Combination with hand action is also difficult.
