SLR Magic expands its Micro Four Thirds lineup with new HyperPrime CINE 10mm T2.1 wide angle lens. They also announced a new 7 ND 0.4-ND 1.8 filter. Check availability at B&H. Additional information:
A quick update to my earlier post – Zeiss will announce at least two more new lenses at Photokina:
Stay tuned for additional details.
For the next few days Pentax is offering significant instant rebates on several of their lenses. For more information, check Adorama and B&H – many of the listings also offer free 2 days shipping and 4% back in rewards.
Zeiss updated their Photokina teaser – we can now clearly see the two Loxia lenses that were already announced. There are at least two more lenses that are yet to be unveiled. I believe at least one of them will be a new 85mm f/1.4 Otus lens (a new 24mm f/1.4 Otus is also a possibility). Zeiss may also introduce their promised ZM lens from 2012.
Adobe is expected to announce a major update to their consumer photo and video software on September 23rd (right after Photokina). Stay tuned for additional details.
I received this Hasselblad rumor from a reader:
It looks like Hasselblad are opening their H5 system for 3rd party digital backs. They already have H4X promo but only recently they updated this promotion with an option to purchase the “open” body without trade-ins. Ironically, most of the people don’t know about it and we all think Hasselblad is totally closed system. So what I hear that Hasselblad will basically go big with the new H5X at Photokina. I think this also makes sense because PhaseOne is expected to announce their new camera body at Photokina as well.
