The Four Thirds System Forum designated April 3rd as Four Thirds’ Day, under the slogan of “A day to enjoy photography more”. To celebrate Four Thirds’ Day, an online exhibit of user-submitted photos is held every year.
For this year’s Four Thirds’ Day exhibition, we’re celebrating the tenth anniversary of the Micro Four Thirds system and calling for the submission of photos that were taken over the past decade using Micro Four Thirds products, that is, from 2008 – when Micro Four Thirds was launched – to 2018.
The decade of Micro Four Thirds has been an exciting one for us and our users as Micro Four Thirds has brought full-size SLR performance to a compact digital format that is defining the future of photography.
We strongly encourage everyone out there to take this opportunity to share with us and with your fellow users “a decade of you and Micro Four Thirds”.

Lucky participants will have a chance to win great prizes in a random draw!
All submitted photos will be shown on our website after the official exhibit.

We encourage you to be a part of this exciting campaign.
