Posted on November 4, 2008 - Filed Under Digital, Photo, Reviews | Leave a Comment | 81 views

Olympus has announced firmware updates for several of its lenses to allow their use with the Panasonic DMC-G1. The updated lenses are the 35mm F3.5 Macro, 25mm F2.8 pancake, 35-100mm F2 and 40-150mm F4.0-5.6. Once upgraded, the lenses will be ‘compatible’ with the G1. It’s unclear whether the 35mm Macro and 35-100mm lenses will be able to autofocus (we’re looking into it), but the 25mm pancake and 40-150mm certainly will. (It has been confirmed that the 35mm Macro and 35-100 lenses will not autofocus on the G1)
