The Panasonic Nocticron 42.5 f/1.2 for Micro 4/3
Our friend Amos chapples just sent us this: “Today the Atlantic published a gallery of photos form St. Petersburg – camera of choice? The old GF5! (And Olympus and Panny lenses).

Will: “For the past few months I’ve been developing and prototyping a small velcro pouch that fits inside of camera bags. It’s now for sale, and I thought you guys might be interested. Photos and more info can be found here: http://www.photographerspouch.com”
James: “Working on this new Web site…http://www.microfourthirdsphotography.info”
Roy: “Let me share with you and your readers the amazing performance of Olympus’ 60mm f/2.8 Macro lens when I shot some flowers. And gladly informing you and some of them returned me with amazing value and customer-satisfaction. I have put down my experience in my blog: http://www.samudranil.in/blog/?id=80360742941”
Felix: “I just got my new E-M5 a few weeks ago and wrote about my first impressions – in german though. Long sentence short: Olympus’s menue is confusing and the buttons don’t seem button-like. The Image-Stabilisator is just unbelievable crazy. After all I like it and for me it is a big step over the Pana G3. My last four blog-posts are all taken with the E-M5 and the oly 45 (mostly) or Pana 14-42kit. I shot during “Fasching” in Karlsruhe. A crazy tradition hier in Germany, where you try to chase off winter with a lot of noise (and candy and witches). http://fotooase.com/fotografie/2014/3/fasching-in-sw“

That Nocticron looks like it was made for the OMD rather then for that GX7
Did you have to post a Steve Huff video? I can’t stand his douchiness and all his douchy doctor and dentist buddies with Leicas.
The more I read about Nocticron , the more tempted I want to get it straight away from the shop .
I need to control my desire .
Consider no shooting at the moment , it’s still have chance to wait for this great lens to drop a bit in pricing before getting it .
Same situation here!
Olympus has just added two new cameras to its range, the
Flagship Stylus Traveller SH-1
(http://www.olympus.com.au/Learn-Explore/Latest-News/Olympus-Announces-new-Flagship-Stylus-Traveller-SH.aspx) which has been made in the style of the PENs (as the Stylus 1 is in the style of the OM-D)
And the
Flagship Stylus Tough TG-3

The Cat’s eye Bokeh is shit.
