SIGH…HOW ABOUT ACTUAL ENHANCEMENTS FOR THE HARDWARE THAT’S ALREADY THERE?
Dear Olympus,
Please don’t make the mistake in the future models that the camera WiFi doesn’t allow remote shooting and file download while controlling camera in hands. So please, in sake of the users experience and professional camera functions, do not sacrifice the users usability for the deals with Toshiba so they can sell more cards and you are required to handicap the camera by supporting these Eye-Fi and Toshiba cards privilege manner.
I own an E-PL6…thanks for the info…but I will not be updating my firmware….LOL!
?…..next…..
Oly goes Kai Zen?
Given these cameras supported the original Toshiba FlashAir card (in fact, when I bought my E-PM2, there was a promotion that you got a free 8GB FlashAir card), it makes sense to add an update to support the new card. I still don’t understand the attraction of a card that uploads to a phone. I get people wanting to post pictures to social media, but doing with a mirrorless camera, just seems to add to the steps. I would just use the phone camera. And note, the newer Olympus cameras (those with built-in wifi) no longer support FlashAir or Eyefi.
