After so both confirmed eyewitnesses that there is Olympus a 4K Firmware for the EM1, it was probably only a matter of time before an enterprising hacker challenge is to make Olympus system cameras for via firmware alteration videographers interesting. Now available with Light Snow actually a firmware modifications for download that promises quite a few improvements for the Olympus E-M1. First and foremost, it has been possible here, the sensor readout behavior to change in yourself so that now a bigger Sensorflaeche for video recordings may be used. The hacker is even talk of a possible full sensor readout. This could possibly also an internal 4K recording are possible. We find this development interesting in many ways: First, it shows anothertimes on that hardware could dominate a lot more usually, as the producers want to release. We are aware that some functions myself might only work in the short term stable or not for everyone are useful, but one could this restriction indeed decision left up to the user. Secondly seem companies like Panasonic, where one has the feeling that they always give the user almost everything that the hardware will bear to be rewarded with the success it deserves. The GH4 sold, according to various sources still much better than expected. Third, now seems to have moved from the big players only Sony not a big hacker-interest. In this case, one could expect allowed to dormant functions just at the A7s a lot. Finally, the likely more infos at bei lightsnowdev.blogspot.com
