(FT4) Olympus 7-14mm f/2.8 to be announced soon? Priced at around $1,799.

.

A source just told me that Olympus is likely going to announced the new 7-14mm f/2.8 Zuiko MFT lens very soon! He also sent me the price in non $ currency. I made a rough conversion and the lens should cost  $1,799 which is also the price of the Four Thirds version (here on Amazon). But the FT version is one stop slower. I have been told the lens has an extremely high quality.

Will you buy the $1799 high quality Zuiko 7-14mm f/2.8 MFT lens?

(FT5) Confirmed by trusted sources: Large sensor LX8 coming in July.

The current LX7 with [shoplink 34270 ebay]Gariz case[/shoplink].

My best sources confirmed that Panasonic will launch a large sensor LX8 in July. Panasonic goal is indeed to make a high quality compact camera as the Sony RX100M3 (just announced two weeks ago). Therefore it has a built-in EVF but it will keep the LX7 look.

Announcement date is set for July 16!

One more thing: It’s still not confirmed via trusted sources but rumor has it that Olympus will also launch a high-end compact inspired by the [shoplink 35471 ebay]Olympus Trip 35 film cameras (on auction here on eBay)[/shoplink].
