New Redcat 250mm f/4.9 lens from William Optics (also for MFT)
William Optics has launched a new Redcat 250mm f/4.9 lens on Kickstarter. The lens can be used on MFT cameras too althaugh this is only a manual focusing lens:
From the beginning, the goal was to create the best possible design for an affordable, small, lightweight, and fast Apochromatic refractor for astrophotography needs. The unique optical design includes the highest quality glass for the best possible color correction and flat-field. The result is a 51mm objective lens, in a sleek Petzval design, for a full frame flat field image. The optical quality provides for exceptional performance at a fast focal ratio of F/4.9.

(FT5) Olympus registered a new camera with the code “IM015”
Yesterday Olympus registered a new camera model in Asia. From what I heard this model will be announced during the second half of the year and it will be a new OMD camera. E-M5II and E-M1II are the next hot candidates in need for a replacement. But maybe Olympus has also something very “new” in their roadmap?
