The Farm – Hacked firmware Panasonic GF1 1080p video from mpgxsvcd on Vimeo.

This is a video I took at the farm yesterday with my GF1 and the hacked 1080p MJPEG firmware. I used a minolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manualminolta 35-70mm F2.5-3.5 Macro manual manual focus lens.
The lens definitely could use IS for the macro videos. I only wish they made this lens in an m4/3s mount. It is a truly fantastic lens and it only costs $20!

(Attention FAKE image) Ricoh to release a MicroFourThirds modul for the GXR???

Share


According to the swedish magazine Kamerabild Ricoh will release a Ricoh MicroFourThirds modul for their GXR camera in autumn!

If true that would become a damn interesting camera for all of us! The camera alone sells for $549.00 on amazon.

Would you buy the Panasonic 500mm mirror lens?

A bird told me you should look at those pictures (Olympus modular camera)

Share


A very important…”bird” told me that 43rumors readers should closely look at those pictures. He also said “Of course the rest you have to work out for yourself but I think the hint is pretty strong enough, don’t you think? :)

I ask all sources if they can tell me more about the future modular camera. Every hint and rumor helps! Thanks!

P.S.: We also know that a new Panasonic camera is coming early July. Let’s know what you know ;)

(FT4) The Olympus modular system will be different than the Ricoh GRX system.

Share


All our most important sources confirmed that Olympus is working on a completely new modular camera system. Some of them told us that Olympus original plan was to first release the Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3Olympus E-3 successor and after that the first modular camera. But now Olympus is forcing the modular camera development and there are three possible scenarios:

1) They release the Olympus E-5 at Photokina and the first modular camera by end 2010-early 2011.
2) They will skip the Olympus E-5 release and announce a semi modular camera (it means with not all the planned features)
3) Olympus makes the miracle and the modular camera should come with all the new features.

What kind of features will the modular camera have?
1) New sensor with a small increse of total Megapixels (14-15 MP)
2) You will be able to use both m4/3 and 4/3 lenses
3) faster autofocus
4) completely new design (based on the Olympus OM4tiOlympus OM4tiOlympus OM4tiOlympus OM4tiOlympus OM4tiOlympus OM4tiOlympus OM4tiOlympus OM4tiOlympus OM4tiOlympus OM4tiOlympus OM4ti)
5) easy-intuitive and fast controls
6) The mount should be modular but separated from the sensor module. Olympus will probably not take the path of the one piece lens-sensor modul from Ricoh GXR (and that’s good news!)

We are currently receiving some rumors about the modular camera but we are still not certain how exactly the real camera will look like. Contact us at 43rumors@gmail.com if you can and want tell us more!

Thanks!

Oh, and one more picture of the original Maitani modular system:
