EM1 2.0 Firmware, a new camera experience !


Haven't had time to update my E-M1 to take a look myself... But am I right to say keystone adjustment is sort of like a in-cam processing of the tilt-shift effect?

Yes :) it's a 'live' adjustment too , meaning wysiwyg

Not exactly a tilt-shift effect in my opinion, it does what a TS/PC lens does by controlling perspective, but this is done digitally, and does it better than the lens because you can control the amount you want (to a limit) rather than be limited by the lens and the position of your camera, that's the way I see it
 

@Keith and spidey... Indeed awesome and super useful from the way u guys put it... Hopefully I got the time to go and update and play with my camera soon ^^

HAhaha, when you said "super useful", my brain processed it in away that you're being sarcastic hahah! Not really sure how fun will the keystone function be, but it's sure damn useful! Especially since Olympus doesn't have any TS lens, and the Zuiko ones costs a lot!

Hi guys, after clicking, did you end up in this page ?

http://www.olympus.co.jp/en/support/imsg/digicamera/download/software/camera/cameradl.cfm

For Macintosh, I can only see Version 1.06 which is updated in Feb 2014.

Can I know where is the Ver 2 Sep 2014 update ?

Thanks

Hi Errz,

I have updated before previously and the filename is the same.

Can I confirm that I after clicking your above link, you will go to this page:

http://www.olympus.co.jp/en/support/imsg/digicamera/download/software/camera/camera.cfm

which I am sure you also notice that there is a typo which says "Selection menu for E-M5"

then click "Accepted", will leads you to this page:
http://www.olympus.co.jp/en/support/imsg/digicamera/download/software/camera/cameradl.cfm

Under Macintosh, after downloading you will get a dmg file with filename:
oly_update_mac_v106.dmg [meaning using the same Updater as before ?]

This is the same filename as I downloaded previously ...

The question I have is whether after installing this file, the Ver2 will be inside ?

Just a bit worried as I did not see the word "Ver2 Sep 2014"

Thanks

1) u need the Updated installed on your MAC (which is Version : 1.06). U do not need to install again if u have the updated version installed.
2) after installed, run the updater and connect ur camera
3) the updater will check for firmware where u will see V2. This is where the Updater install the firmware.

LOL! Oops!!!

To put the TS lens on a m43 would be quite heavy also, wouldn't it?
 

Sorry for the OT ... Is the Olympus Capture released along with the firmware as well ?
