(FT1) UPDATED -> Crazy rumor: E-5 with new mount

Share

Please allow me to post one of the crazy rumors we are receiving in this days. Really don’t take it to much seriousely ok?

That’s what one source told me:
E-system Fans will be no intersted in New camera
I Guess new camera may change mount
I Believe it is true about 70%
I’m not sure Olympus New camera sitll use 43 mount.

UPDATE:
Just receivend a new mail from an anonymous source. he says “I can’t say much, but do not be too dismissive of a new lens mount for the E5. Expect something new.“,

Hmmm… maybe the rumor is not that crazy ?

P.S.: Thanks for contacting us!

New FourThirds and MicroFourThirds flash from Nissin!

Share
limited edition of white colored flash

A. sent us a very interesting news:

Got this post from omuser.com. This post said that Nissin, in its tenth anniversary general meeting, announced to release a series of digital flash products to support 4/3 and m4/3. The photo shown in the link is a limited edition of white colored flash. Supposing to match with the white E-P1 and GF-1

The model in the photo is a model Di466, it will support wireless, TTL, non-TTL, manual and also a mode called My TTL, which seems to allow users to select the exposure value for the TTL (I guess on the flash body itself??)

Do you think Leica took the wrong decision not joining MicroFourThirds?

Share

This week Luminous Landscapes was one full of discussions. In short: LL asked Leica to abandon the rangefinder “mentality” and to choose the path of the new “mirrorless and interchangeable compact cameras”. The Leica M9 is selling well in amazon.com (it is under the most sold top20 cameras) . But is that going to save Leica in the long run?
And more important:

Would you love to see such a camera from Olympus and/or Panasonic?

A “skin” experience…

Share

One of our 43rumors reader sent us this:

Just wanted to share my experience with the JnK skin for the E-P1/2 that you posted a few months ago. I ordered one in the textured red from his ebay store () and got it yesterday. Before I ordered it I was a little on the fence about how thick the leather is, but when I put it on, I was 100% impressed with it and with his craftsmanship! The skin fits perfect! and he’s presentation and packaging is very impressive! This was a great experience and well worth the money. Here is a link to my camera with the skin.

Your E-P2 looks really good! ;)

For the first time on 43rumors we have taken a deep look on Amazon most sold lenses. The Top 5 lenses are all Canon/Nikon lenses. Interesting, fast “cheap” primes are on top. And it is not a surprise that the most sold Panasonic/Olympus lens is the Panasonic 20mm f/1.7. Message to our Olympus and Panasonic product manager..we want more prime lenses!

And here the TOP 5 Lens chart:
