43rumors Summary and Ideas Brainstorm

The E-P1

Finally the E-P1 has been revealed. I am going to buy one only because I need a compact high quality camera I can carry with me all the time. Yes there are features I like and features I do not like (or miss). But I am very minimalistic in my photographic needs so the “dislikes” doesn’t matter at all. I hope to get the camera for mid July but I do not know if there will be big shipment delays because of the high request.

Why we made 43rumors
Since years I daily check for Olympus Panasonic and Leica news. And I thought it would be nice to create a website to sum all this news and to make it easy for you to find all the latest news and rumors. In this months people began to help me by sending links and someone became a 43rumors poster. Many thanks you all!

Our rumors

Frankly I am surprised that our rumors were so close to the real E-P1 specs. Initially we “only” reported rumors from other websites. But then we began to receive many emails with “rumors” and of course I got some wrong rumor (Initially we thought there will be a built in flash). And I received a lot of false E-P1 images but I always tried to ask for confirmations from all sources in order to prevent big mistakes and fakes. It worked well. I got some help on how to deal with that information from the nikonrumors.com owner. A very friendly guy!

Our next rumors target

I want to focus my attention to the compact Panasonic MicroFourThirds camera. I am really excited to see what Panasonic will show us!

Our next 43rumors changes and ideas brainstorming!

We are always trying to make this website better and better.

We will work on some minor design tweaks, we will add some new content. We are not going to build a 43rumors forum (we have better ideas!).

That’s why I ask you to comment this post with all your ideas wishes and critics!

thanks folks!
