Hi!

We are putting a lot of time in this project  and we are having some hosting costs. That’s why…
1) we choose to put banners on this website. We are getting paid for every click. And the top banner seems to be the best one.
2) There is a new donator wall on the right sidebar. Feell free to donate and optionally add your message which will be displayed on the sidebar!

Thank you!

Become a rumor reporter!

We are getting closer to the Olympus micro four thirds summer release! And 43rumors always wants to be on top with rumors and news.

That’s why we need you!

We can’t do all the job alone, we need your help to keep an eye on Olympus forums blogs and websites from all over the world. For example, if you speak chinese you could report to us the most important news from Chinese Olympus forums. China, Russia and Japan seem to be industrious terrain for rumors. But these are not the only interesting countries! In the past we have found superb info in other countries (Spain and Germany for example).

There are 2 ways YOU can help us:

1) Become a rumor reporter! Write to us at 43rumors@gmail.com and report to us the rumors you caught!

2) Become a poster! Join the 43team and write your posts!

Many thanks!

P.S.:UPDATE: We have a sunday rumor for you!

P.S.2.: And for the fall we need Panasonic reporters!

So here we are. This is the first photo we  have posted. The photographer made this with the Canon G10 but he told us he wants to get the LX3 or the Olympus micro four thirds camera ;)

One day one photo!

Dear readers,

As you all know the camera doesn’t really matter. If you are a good photographer you don’t need the latest digital camera. Prove our readers that even a small compact camera or an old analogue camera can take wonderful pictures! Through May we want to post one photo per day which was taken with a compact digital camera or analogue camera. No DSLR photos allowed! You can send the photo to 43rumors@gmail.com, adding some description and we will choose one photo every day! Show the daily 4,500 43rumors readers what you can do!

The selection will be made by three 43rumors members!

Can’t wait to see your photos!

UPDATE: We will add a copyright text to protect your pictres. If you have any particoular wishes feel free to comunicate it. Thank you!

Why we love our Panasonic LX3!

The only weak point compared to the G10…DISTORTION! But the Canon is limited to only 28mm at the wide end!

Sometimes we google around and today we found this nice website (www.seriouscompacts.com). They recently reviewed and compared the Canon G10 and Leica DLUX4 / Panasonic LX3 duo. The LX3’s only weakness seems to be the 24mm lens distortion (but the Canon only does 28mm!). In all other aspects the DLUX4/LX3 duo beats the Canon G10.
