Profoto A1 For Olympus Kinda… Maybe 2018?

By Louis Ferreira | Published: September 23, 2017


Profoto’s announcement of the Profoto A1 a few days ago was very much like announcements of old, with Canon/Nikon models confirmed and no other make mentioned. So fans took to social media to figure out what happened to Profoto’s recent expanded support and Olympus support is the foggiest soo far.


It sounds like you can use the current Profoto Olympus Air remote with the Nikon/Canon Profoto A1, but they don’t have a firm answer about a dedicated unit. This differs from the responses I found about Sony and Fujifilm, which was 2018. Will Profoto release an Olympus Profoto A1 in 2018? Maybe 2019? Time will tell.

Olympus OM-D EM-10 Mark III Preliminary Dynamic Range Comparison

By Louis Ferreira | Published: September 21, 2017


Photons on Photos is quickly becoming the best source for camera dynamic range performance information and they just listed their preliminary measurements for the Olympus OM-D EM-10 Mark III and it’s a mild improvement over the original. Their preliminary results tend to be a bit conservative and I will post the final results when they are available, but for now, this is about what you should expect. Most micro four thirds cameras hover around the same range, including the flagship OM-D E-M1 Mark II. You can manipulate the results for yourself here.
