Sergey: “This is not a rumor but I’d like to share this: During shooting in some nightclub my Olympus OM-D E-M10 fell from the 4-meter high balcony onto concrete floor. The first thought that came to my mind was R.I.P. my dear Oly! The 14-42 kit lens was jammed and beyond repair BUT imagine my surprise when the body was repaired by Olympus in a couple of days – serviceman said that he only needed to re-attach the sensor/shutter assembly changing nothing!
That’s what I call TOUGH!”

Ulli? How sad…
RIP Ulli. I really enjoyed engaging with him here, and perusing his work. His voice will be missed.
Thanks admin.
Any idea about the cause? Had he been ill?
As far as I know he didn’t have any known health problems. He had plans and ideas until the end, which makes it even sadder, and much more shocking for his relatives and friends. I read he supposedly suffered heart failure.
Cause appears to be heart attack, he was 49yo. RIP
I translated the dutch article and it seems he had a heart stroke. I can’t believe it happened.
Yes, very sad.
Very nice reminder about Ulli Bürer. A great artist indeed… R.I.P.
Thank you BdV for the news concerning Ulli.
I was asking myself how he was doing with his photography and models, days ago, since it was quite a long time he was not writing here.
A sad new, a bad surprise for me. I have no words to express this sadness in English, I just send my thought to his relatives, family and beloved ones.
Wow… Shocked.
RIP, Ulli. Very respectable. Didn’t know he was a skilled artist too.
Wow. Sad indeed.
What sad and shocking news about Ulli!
It was always fun to banter with him here.
He is already missed.
R.I.P.
D.E.P.
R.I.P. Ulli. Your absent is dearly missed.
OMG, this is crazy… It was always such a pleasure to read his thoughts… Rest in peace…
For a little bit more of everything, DigitalRev just posted a review of the GF7

That is very sad news about Ulli. I was just wondering where he has been these past months. Even on an inconsequential commenting board like this, he will be missed.
RIP Ulli.
Better late than never! Thank you BdV for doing the
homework, and thank you Jannes Bondstra for the wall of
honor idea, and thank you admin for finally posting something about Ulli…That
is the least we can do! It feels good being part of such a friendly bunch..I
don’t think other photography communities are this nice..I guess all the
“bullying” for being part of a “small” format brings us
closer together 🙂 I have been coming here religiously everyday sometimes more
than 5 times a day (I live in the middle east ;D) for god knows how many
years… This was the system I chose when I finally decided to go pro in
photography and not the more established ones, and that is most probably because
of this very website….oh and maybe a bit bcoz of all the craze surrounding
the gh2 a while back:) Anyway It is weird how sometimes we get
attached to people we barely know, ..I still feel sad every time I come here, ever since I learned about Ulli 🙁 … and he
was still young..My thoughts go towards his wife and kids. If only they knew
how much we care, perhaps it could at least ease a bit their pain in some way, they
are not alone as we have also lost a friend..a virtual one perhaps, but still a
good one nevertheless ..He might have been a good photographer but he was clearly a much more talented comic book artist. Wish he had focused more on that! RIP dear friend:(
Well spoken ED. I am sure his relatives / friends would appreciate your words as well. I will send a link of this page to them.
