CONFIRMED: Panasonic announcement on October 8…New L-mount or also new MFT gear?)

Share

I still don’t know WHAT Panasonic will announce but I am 100% sure now about that:

  • Major announcement event on October 8th
  • Multiple(!) products will be announced

I have no clue yet if there will be new MFT gear too (I heard for sure some L-mount stuff). My dream would be to get a new compact GM/GF model…but it’s just a dream for now!

Drop me a message using this contact box if you can share more info about the gear that will be announced!

Curiosity: OM digital latest price cut on the 150-600mm (-$700) finally puts it a bit closer to the Sigma pricing

Share

OM Digital recently launched brand new deals and those do include a rather big $700 price cut on the OM 150-600mm lens. It now sells for $1999 at Amazon, BHphoto, Adorama, Om Digital. As you know this lens has the same optical construction of the original Sigma 150-600mm lens that now sells for $1350 in their Sony E and Leica L mount variants. So while the OM version is still in my opinion too expensive I am happy to see that it has definitely become more reasonable in terms of pricing

OM Digtial launched new big savings in the USA at BHphoto, Adorama, Amazon. A shortlist of the deals you can find:
