New E-M1 Firmware with better video!
We/I developed 2 custom firmwares for the Olympus E-M1 together with Nabil Fathi. Both are tested and should be save to install. Please report any problems you have. If its a small one please use the comments, if it's a bigger one write me an e-mail (check my profile on the right).
You can also flash any official firmware you want. Check my Firmware Control Tool for that.
I would like to produce more, but the testing is up to you. I don't own a E-M1, but @nabilfathi15 does and we are working together to give you features. Also there is a certain risk for everything, so please read the description of each firmware.
The main feature of this release is, that is a bigger part of the sensor for the 1080p videos. This means that a resolution similar to 4k is read by the sensor and then downscaled to 1080p. You gain a lot of nice things like:
- The Auto Focus in videos should be smoother.
- Full Sensor read in video mode. No crop.
- Better ISO performance in low light video situations
- More Dynamic Range in video
- This firmware is based on the official version 2.0.
Please report your experience with the firmware.
Because the firmware Olympus designed is not very well developed we do our best to continue.
Next up would be a higher framerate, higher bitrate and of cause the 4k feature itself.
Stay tuned for new possible updates and check this blog on a regular basis. I can't promise these features, but nevertheless we are working to enable those.

How to flash a firmware
Method 1:Extract the file and put the whole folder "DCOLYMP" on your SD-Card.
Check if the firmware file is inside the folder and put the SD-Card into your camera. Now start the camera while pushing the OK button. The red LED will go on for about 1 minute. If it's flashing on/off you know, that the process is finished. You can restart your camera now and you're all done.
Method 2:
You can use my "Firmware Control" tool to flash any firmware.
Use the web page or in-program tutorial/help if you need.

Download
Firmware 1: Mega.co.nz
This firmware was produced in cooperation with @nabilfathi15 - never-prod.com.
This firmware is save and has been tested. Though some users reported, that the WiFi is not working with the firmware. In this case please please flash back to the normal 2.0 firmware.
Sometimes there is problem with the output file. On some of our SD-Cards the video file would not want to save. But see for your self.
Firmware 2: http://gdurl.com/edAq/download
This firmware only has 1 feature.
Changed the INFO screen for the firmware button as seen here.
The firmware is based on version 1.4
This firmware should be save.
Q: Will this break my camera? Is my warranty void?
A: No it will not break or brick your camera if you follow the tutorial. Even if something goes wrong your warranty should stay intact and you can contact your company to get a new camera.
Q: My WiFi is not working any more.
A: Please use my Firmware Control Tool to download and flash the normal 2.0 firmware
Q: I don't see any difference. What did you change?
A: Look at this Showcase to see the benefits of this firmware. If you don't see a difference I can't help you. You will have to wait until we release a new firmware. If you really want to know what we changed and also want to help us with the coding you can contact me.
Please donate some money to ensure further development.
I would never force you to do that, but I spent many hours of developing and hacking.

can you add 4k video recording, 24p, 25p, and higher bitrates?
ReplyDeleteI'm working on it
DeleteMe and many other olympus users are hoping for a e-pm2 and e-pl5 update that includes the '' 0 sec antishock first electronic curtain'' to eliminate shutter shock, olympus did release a firmware for the e-m5 and e-p5 that includes the feature but seems like users like me who use lower end cameras are ignored by olympus....
DeleteCan you please develop a custom firmware and add the '' 0 sec antishock'' feature to e-pm2 and e-pl5 models? they are the same camera as the expensive ones in theory only with less buttons and cheaper built materials, is it possible to do it? i even would pay for it
I wouldn't want to sidetrack this astonishing video project, but just add a voice to this electronic 1st curtain for E-PL5 request, if you can decompile and recompile Oly FW. Thanks for the good work!
Deletelooks like this guy does not give a shit
DeleteFantastic work guys.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant job! Congrats to Nabil and Jonathan for pulling this off. Will test this as soon as I can get my hands on an EM-1.
ReplyDeleteIncredible job. Do you think that some of the features that you are developing/unlocking could be applied also to em5?
ReplyDeleteI tried it with my E-M10, but it did not work. I might try it for the E-M5 as well.
DeleteAny chance this will work on E-M10 in the future? :)
DeleteWell since I have an own E-M10 I'm working on this camera for sure ;)
DeletePlease try mod with E-M5?
DeleteThanks, Thanks, Thanks ,Thanks
Great work!
DeleteI cross fingers for a E-M5 release too :)
It would be great if you can do 25P as it would stop 50% of the posts on 43rumors with people arguing whether Oly can do it with a FW upgrade or not!
ReplyDeleteAre you focused entirely on video? It would be amazing if there were a way to hook into the camera UI for scripting various operations, sort of like CHDK. I looked at the PEN firmware strings several years ago and saw lots of debug stuff in there, but I didn't get very far.
ReplyDeleteAny tips on GH4? How to get inside the firmware code?
ReplyDeleteCould you provide some kind of "proof" of this hack in action? Like same video, before and after the hack. I guess people are now too scared to try it.
ReplyDeleteHi - I have a EM1 and access to EM1 - if you need any help testing let me know, I will tweet nail - he will know how to contact me.
ReplyDelete:)
Well done
You can test, if the improvements are visible to you. Also you can do an ISO test. Compare the 3200 ISO-Video with the hacked firmware and without. It would be nice if you email me and tell me your experience.
Deletethe hacked firmware works. seriously, i cannot tell any difference in video quality.
ReplyDeleteCan you please add 24p and 25p video with manual control to a custom firmware for the E-M5? That's the most realistic feature that many of us E-M5 owner wants. My E-M5 still have over 1 year of warranty left, I don't mind testing and bricking it =) Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI think that one good feauture for EM5 would be focus peaking (already present in Em10 and EM1), but I don't know if you can enable that.
DeleteIs unlocking the HDMI out also possible?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations for the great job !
ReplyDeleteAdding 4k and more bitrates will be a fantastic accomplishment.
Keep going the good work !
Better dynamic range is always good!
ReplyDeleteI really would like to see some evidence of your work before trying the fw, like some video comparisons, camera screenshots, and more and more detailed infos about the mod (is it a user selectable mod or it's a new default? Wich video mode is it going to be affected? What are the technical parameters that are changed? How do I know the mod is working?,...).
ReplyDeleteI have also some questions regarding the bigger sensor area being read: I think the obvious meaning of the claim is that the sensor is not being read with a line skipping method but by a full read and than resized to HD res. Or not? Can you better explain it? I think you should not only show the details of your work but go a lot deeper in to explanations and evidences to substantiate your claims.
I don't want to sound harsh, I really appreciate your work and yours efforts, but if you want testers to "risk" a 1400€ camera you should give a whole lot of infos and not just 3 lines of vague claims.
Thank you
Do not want to sound harsh.. but just don't try anything like flashing custom firmware's if you can not miss your 1400 euro camera. It's pretty obvious that this is all new, and the exact consequences are not know, not even to the developers.
DeleteI will upload a video soon.
DeleteWhat about removing the 29m59s video recording limit? That would be a good proof the hack is working.
DeleteMark, maybe I wasn't clear enough in my comment. If this mod is working (as I hope, because I love this kind of things) and you want this mod to become mainstream, then you need people testing and using it.
DeleteI'm wandering who's going to test this fw without knowing exactly how it's supposed to work and what are the features implemented. I think the dev should at first report his experience and bring evidence of the results of his work, then ask for testing (when one knows what to look for).
I can afford to repair a briked camera, but only if I have a good reason.
---
Thank you very much Jonathan, I'm really eager to better understand your work.
My E-P5 is desperate for this! Amazing work!
ReplyDeleteCan the firmware be reversed back to original firmware if needed ? Also will it effect any future firmware updates from Olympus ?
ReplyDeleteYes you can go back to the normal one if you want.
DeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteCan you also add a firmware for the E-M5 with tethered shooting?
You mean with the Olympus Capture program? Thats close to impossible.
DeleteYou can use the mulit-port AV output to get the same things that are shown on your screen to show pictures on a TV.
On the E-M10 you can use the WiFi feature to connect to your PC.
Can you add a crop mode which would read 1920x1080 from the centre of the sensor? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteI just checked my E-M10 and it does have this feature build-in. I does give me a 1920x1080 output with a center crop. I would be surprised if the E-M1 does not have this feature, but let me know if that is the case.
DeleteNo, unfortunatly it has not. As the test on dpreview shows, the digital converter on the E-M10 reduces the video quality. (Which means that most likely it is upscaled to 1920x1080.) The feature the user above is talking about is real 1920x1080 read out of a smaler part of the sensor, like on Panasonic cameras.
DeleteThe E-M1 does have crop mode. Normally E-M1 reads full sensor and then downscales it to FullHD (2.1Mpix 1920x1080). But when you do enable the Crop mode (not the digital converter! they are two different things!) via magnifying button then you get 1:1 pixel recording filling FullHD area from any part of your sensor. Naturally your noise is higher as it isn't downscaled from full sensor read, but you don't lose any details whats so ever.
DeleteDpreview doesn't know how to do tests with mirrorless cameras as they are biased to "full frame" cameras.
Does using the full sensor readout mean that 5-axis image stabilzation will not be used when recording video?
ReplyDeleteSo about updating the firmware with the SD card. What file are you referring to with "Extract the file with a program like winrar." the .bin file of the firmware cant be extracted, so could you explain more? I don't have the cable to connect the M1 to my PC, so I figured I'd do this with the SD card. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteYou have the .rar file you can extract. Put the .bin file in the "DCOLYMP" folder on your SD-Card.
DeleteI have installed the modified firmware, under what setting are the changes made? I.e full hd fine, full hd normal
ReplyDeleteThe Full Sensor Read work with every video mode, you don't need to change any setting,
DeleteIt is a internal process.
Thanks, I was trying it with the original 2.0 firmware .bin and it didn't work. The install started fine with your version!
ReplyDeleteYou need to rename the original 2.0 firmware to E1092006.BIN
DeleteAnd do the same thing as you did with the custom firmware.
Anyway have no problem with the custom firmware, it is based on the official firmware 2.0.
Don't need to worry.
What you have + 24p and much higher bitrate will make you famous.
ReplyDeleteYou are doing a great job! My only question: is there any chance to see e-p5 version if it will ever be released for e-m5 (cameras should be quite similar if I got it right).
ReplyDeleteWhere can I get the original EM1 1.4 firmware before testing anything.
ReplyDeleteYou can download it with my "Firmware Control" tool.
DeleteThanks, saw that but wondered if there was a direct Oly download link but I'll get it from your tool. BTW, "huge" Thank you for working on this and Nabil's support.
DeleteAny chance for RAW video? :)
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteWould you make a Custom Firmware for the EP5?
The E-P5 was supposed to do High Speed Movie Video.
Looking here at the youtube Olympus channel:
[url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVZABJ-lzeA[/url]
The E-P5 has everything needed to create High Speed videos...i don't why olympus didn't include that on the E-P5...
Olympus deleted the video....here is it in other Olympus Channel
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YpeJm3hsULc
The thing is, that every micro 4/3 camera does support a more or less high fps mode.
DeleteFor Example: All the OM-D cameras support more than 120fps for their EVF.
Thats one of many points we are working on.
OM-D cameras support 120Hz, that isn't same as 120fps!
DeleteSame way as 24fps isn't same as 1/24 shutter speed!
The refresh rate only means the display update whole display area X times a second. But the signal it gets and it updates, can be much lower than that.
Example we can have 60-120Hz displays but still watch a 24fps video. The footage is 24 frames per second, but display refresh 60 or 120 times a second. Hz doesn't make the footage any more sharper.
Same thing is with fps. Many likes that movement in videos is blurry, that is THE 24 FPS LOOK.Not the actual 24 frames per second but that the footage has been recorded with 1/24 frames per second, each frame exposure time is 1/24 of a second.
Now with digital cameras, we can have 24/25/30 fps but use much faster shutter speed like 1/100, 1/320 or 1/8000. That means each frame has exposure value any of those. But it as well means we can't get any lower exposure value for frame than the frame rate is.
And difference between 1/24 and 1/30 shutter speeds is negligible.
24 fps can be used for very high speed footage, but it requires to be used with high speed shutter speed. 30fps is even better as there are 6 frames more to fill higher speed caps. With low shutter speed, the motion has very motion blur in it, that fills the movement caps.
So if you are shooting in daylight, use ND filter to get lowest possible shutter speed so it match with the framerate. Then 30fps looks identical to 24fps.
Then if you want sharper movement without jittery, you need higher framerate with higher shutter speed so each frame is without motion blur, but each sharp frame can be played back in fast rate.
The shutter speed, display refresh rate and frame rate are totally different things.
Example with OM-D we record 30 fps, 1/60 and what we get is that each frame is like we would take a photo with 1/60 shutter speed. But we only capture frame every 1/30 of a second. Then that 30 frames per second is observed via EVF that refresh 120 times a second, meaning the display plays back one frame for times until swapping it to next frame.
To get higher x framerate, the sensor needs to be capable to flush full frame data x times to memory, compress each frame, and then save it. It isn't something that can be done just by tweaking some values in firmware.
The sensor needs to be capable to flush the full frame data as many times per second as the framerate is. Now calculate how demanding it is to capture 16Mpix sensor 30 times a second (that is about 15MB per frame) totaling 450MB per second and that to be compressed on the fly. Now if we want 60fps in FullHD, that is over 900MB per second. The RAM in E-M1 is only around 2GB so it would fill up in two seconds and both CPU would be compressing data and flushing to card.
Thats why 720p 120fps is same as 1080p 30fps by data amount. But even 720p requires FULL SENSOR READOUT. Compression and scaling is tighter. But if sensor is build so it can't do more than 30 flushes per second (it is always full frame readout) then it can't even give faster framerate for lower resolution video, unless video is cropped so sensor is read out only from very small part.
Congratulations for the your success Jonathan!, Why dont´t you open a crowdsoursing fund for it? I would love to have focus peaking on the EM5!
ReplyDeletepls include em5 - smaller, weather proof, 5 axis many thanks
ReplyDeleteI have just downloaded and run unRAR on my Mac for the custom firmware for the e_M1. Can the original firmware be reinstalled after an update from the SD card. I am on a Mac and have not been able to run your firmware update program. Could you make the original 2.0 version available on your site /Wetransfer if it could be done this way. I would love to test your firmware but need a fallback option.
ReplyDeleteI tried both your custom 2.0 firmware and stock 2.0 firmware on my E-M1. Going back and forth between the two firmwares was no problem with the SD card method (Note: the flashing was not working with my 64GB SDXC card, so I had to switch to a lower 8GB SD card to make it work). Comparing movie captures however, I don't see much, or any, difference in details between the two firmwares... I tried both ISO 200 and 3200. captures and compared, but didn't see the degree of difference shown in your shocase video post.
ReplyDeleteSo either they improved the video on the 2.0 and the published comparison is with the 1.4, or they uploaded the wrong hacked version was published or the difference in the magnification coupled with the shitty codec is giving rise to the observed difference, or... I hope not.
DeleteI unpacked the custom firmware and took a look at the modifications before I flashed the firmware.. From the modifications I see earnest effort to modify the firmware (changes mainly consist of debug string changes and changing occurences of 1920x1080 to 3840x2160), so I think it could be that wrong version got published... I also made sure that the custom firmware was correctly flashed by repacking the file with string modification to main-lang.bin and verifying that the string was changed in the menu after flashing the file (checksum generation seems to have changed manually instead of using oly_fw_manip tool.. please upload the updated version). Few observations from my testing:
Delete1. Why did so many debug strings had to be changed? From the looks they look like a prompt strings for the olympus internal debug shell and changing these strings doesn't seem to serve any purpose.
2. As mentioned above, the checksum generation method seems to have been changed for packing, and if using the current oly_fw_manip tool to generate the packed file the firmware doesn't flash.. since the custom firmware is flashing correctly and has correct checksums, I think that a new oly_fw_manip version modified for use in e-m1 2.0 firmware is in existance.. Please upload the latest version.
Thank you Jonathan and keep up the great work!
correction on above comment.. (checksum generation seems to have changed so I had to manually change the checksum instead of using the tool)
DeleteYes the checksums have changed, I mentioned this in a earlier post. The checksums are generated by hand because of this.
DeleteNot all of the debug strings are really for debug purposes. It was just a try to edit them all. There was no need to revert them back to normal.
Hey Jonathan, thanks for all the work.
DeleteDo you have an idea why nobody reports any improvement in video as you do?
All the people that have tried it say they see no improvement.
Anonymous, i don't know your name
DeleteBut it is impossible to recompile the firmware 2006 with the actual tools, you need to resign the firmware itself to be able to flash this one.
It was long to find the correct signature, i don't think you could even flash the firmware after unpack and repack with the oly firmware tool, you can't and i'm sure of this at 100%, i work on the resign myself, that's why you can flash it
Changing the debug strings is helping for testing purpose, the firmware as different call function that is not necessarily only debug strings.
It take a long time to find every call function and you can't change the size of the firmware,
Is not that easy to work on firmware like, everything is there but it need time to figure out where it goes
and keep it stable, we don't have the Olympus Official SDK for that.
I already discover a lot of calling function but more time we help, a 100% custom firmware that will change the way you use your camera same as the magic lantern, will not be ready just tomorrow, it can take weeks or month for that, (even year).
Some part of the firmware need to be rewrite because Olympus release this firmware too fast and without fixing a lot of important issue.
That sounds good. I will look forward to future releases of your custom firmware, and will try on my e-m1 and give you feedback when released.
DeleteGreat work!
ReplyDeleteBut the video output is 24fps?
Tested the firmware and did a test with both firmwares original and hacked, even magnified video to 4k resolution and saw no difference. People on other forums reporting same findings, they just can't seem to mimic video results shown.
ReplyDeleteIs this some kind of stunt tied with the supposed new video firmware that Olympus tested since no one has verified these claims?
ReplyDeleteAfter installing the firmware had problems with the launch of Wifi.
ReplyDeleteStarts and stops immediately. I have one such troubles?
Jonathan, it is great that you are working to customize the firmware of the EM1 even without having the camera yourself.
ReplyDeleteBut before people can help you (donate) you have to make sure what you claim the hacked firmware does is verified by other users too.
A lot of people are interested in this project and it will be a pity to waste this on false claims.
Thank you and keep on the good work.
Here's a question: given a UK model Olympus EM1 (with a 29 minute time recording limit), can I flash a Japanese EM1 firmware (without this limit) to it? If so, how?
ReplyDeleteI know that the EU models have this limit. But are the USA and the JAP models not affected by that? I thought they where?
DeleteI am told that the JAP models have no time limit. I don't know for certain about the USA models. Can anybody confirm this?
DeleteGiven that nobody seems to see an improvement, it looks like all you did was changing the display strings, and likely some debug strings as well. As a computer science student you'll know that it's common to separate resources from functional code, so this is rather expected.
ReplyDeleteHave you actually made other changes besides text resource changes and calculating a new checksum to make it installable?
Yes we have. And we are working on more...
DeletePlease upload the original firmware. On the poppy has not run your program for a reconstruction of the original firmware. At least version 1.4 in order to flash to 2.0 officially.
ReplyDeleteYou can flash any firmware over any with the SD-Card method.
DeleteYou can use Jonathan's Firmware Control tool and use the tool to download any original e-m1 firmwares.
DeleteYour program not for Mac. Trying to find the original firmware file to install from SD card.
DeleteYou can use this program to run windows programs an mac: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
DeleteYou can download the firmware with this. Rename the firmware and put it in the folder.
Confirmed hoax?
ReplyDeleteWell you don't have to install it if you don't want
DeleteI'm just saying, nobody has been able to duplicate the results found in your video.
DeleteI WANT this to work and I will support development with donations. Provide us with something where EVERYONE gets the results show in your test videos and I will start with a $25 US donation and we'll see where it goes from there.
Anonymous.
DeleteNo one force you to use the custom firmware, no one force you to make a donation.
This is not about Donation or Hoax at all.
You can expect us to delivery a custom firmware that fast, it take time, it take me few days to find the correct signature to recompile the firmware 2006, because the public olympus tool doesn't work properly with the new firmware.
If you are not happy with this, you should work on it yourself.
I have installed it. Butt wifi will not work anymore :( start and instandly stop
ReplyDeleteTry to install the normal firmware.
DeleteThe only sample video on youtube has no specific information. More and persuasive comparisons are needed. That will brighten your work.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately have only on E-M1 for test.
DeleteNo specific information ?
Simple (same distance, a little different angle, one with full sensor read and the other no)
ISO 3200, Shutter at 1/4000 (why that much, simply to show the details at the extreme settings in video mode) 40-150mm not even the best lens.
have no problem with the magnification.
Let's take a example of the 4K downsample to 1080p
Here is a little bit similar
crop 1080 -> encode 1080p (loose a lot of details)
I'm waiting for comparisons between native firmware and hacked firmware that noncropped and nonedited in normal situation.
DeleteAre you kidding me ?
DeleteUnder is native firmware, upper is custom firnware.
Nothing is cropped in here.
You don't know anything about what the Full Sensor read mean.
Anyway i'm not going to loose my time with people like you.
You are not happy, go check someone else.
E-P5 PLEASE!!
ReplyDeleteWill pay for it
Guys, stop hating - WTF?
ReplyDeleteThose guys are private developers - they are doing this for fun, not profit.
If you don't wanna risk you M1 - don't do it.
But keep in mind: There are no CLAIMS, there is only humbleness!
At the devs: Keep the momentum! Good luck with the further implementation; will test it soon!
The problem is that nobody else has been able to duplicate the results shown in the video here. Either they uploaded the wrong firmware or the video is staged.
DeleteWhen we try to ask the developers why nobody else can get their results, they get defensive and provide no real answers.
I have not seen one example of anyone else proving that this works. Please, prove us wrong and show us third party examples!
DeleteYou are too blind.
DeleteWe are not your dogs, i have nothing to prove to you or anybody else.
If i want to work on it, i work and if i want to stop, i will stop.
So keep your talk for someone else, it doesn't work like that.
You are obviously naive with the way software is developed. You don't expect someone to simply trust an unknown source with no real proof that the risk is worth it.
DeleteI would kiss you if you can do 24p and boost the bitrate. Good luck, will pledge to donate $50 if you manage it. James
ReplyDeleteAnother glaring shortcoming in the original Olympus firmware is the 10FPS framerate on timelapse footage. If one were able to save a timelapse at 24, 25, 30 or 60fps it would be much more useable.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the impressive job!
ReplyDeleteTwo questions - Is it possible to add RAW-mode blinkies? today the blinkies mode is based on the JPEG that is converted from the RAW and this doesn't show the real clipping point. Also, is it possible to add more mysets?
wow fantastic work, will certainly be keeping an eye on this, if you can bring 4k internal recording to the EM1 you will definately be getting my support ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks for you support guys! We are working on more video features.
ReplyDeleteWith the full sensor readout you mention that it has no crop, so would this be the same view as a 16:9 image using the same amount of sensor? So would the hack mean that it uses the 4608x2592 lines then down scales it to 1080? I know that if you turn on M-IS it creates small crop because of the electronic Image Stability.
ReplyDeleteAnything for the E-P5?
ReplyDeleteSince we don't have A E-P5 it's not possible to test hacks. There is a chance, but we have a lot to do with our own OM-D cameras
DeleteMoikka,
ReplyDeleteOnkohan 60fps mahdollista lisätä ripattuun firmwareen. Olisi käytännöllinen hidastuksissa. Kiitokset :)

Hi! Fantastic work so far! Are you still working on this project?
ReplyDeleteI this project still alive? I planned on testing the firmware out today with a muted flat profile but the mega upload link is dead.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is, that I had a computer crash and lost the firmware.
ReplyDeleteAbout the project: Since I don't own an em1 ist hard to work on that.
Please keep on keeping on!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is the best news! Really appreciate you dabbling in such a crazy endeavor
If you can give more features i will donate $50
Happy holliday and merry new year!
Cheers
Is it possible to increase the maximum continuous video length? Let's say by automatically starting a new video file once it reaches the 4GB limit.
ReplyDeletewas looking into this but seems showcase links are all deaD?
ReplyDeleteIt was a big, ill conceived publicity stunt. There was no improvement.
DeleteBlame Nabil. I never had a E-M1 and never said I have one. He deleted the youtube videos.
DeleteI can't do anything about that and don't want to.
After all Nabil also is a "stunt" man! :-)
DeleteEither way you don't take down all your content and delete everything if it were all a big stunt or to get Twitter followers? I suspect a big hand-slap from OLY because of Panasonic licensing problem?
What is the latest status for the near future of this firmware project? Firmware 3.0 is coming out soon for E-M1--will there be a new version of the custom firmware based on 3.0? Also, anyone care to comment on whether the custom firmware has actually improved their videos?
ReplyDeleteIf i press the recordbutton my em1 starts filming, but stops a second after i started the video. without saving any files. what am i doing wrong?
ReplyDeleteI have an E-M5 and would gladly test firmware on it. I think the most important feature would be a higher bitrate, larger videostreams, because the default (for all modes/resolutions) on the EM5 is bad. Really ugly artifacts. Even my hacked GH1 that is way older had MUCH better quality (Full HD) video. Sad really, since the OMD stabilizer is really good.
ReplyDeleteHello, Can I use this firmware on my EM5 also?
ReplyDeleteIt is very uncomfortable moment when you lose pictures from your camera. But now with the help of http://www.recoverysoftw.com/ you can easily get them back.
ReplyDeleteWould also be super interested in an e-m5 update for either a higher framerate or an improvement of the codec in order to have better video results. Therefore I could also take the risk and test it. It would be worth for me to donate about 250€ depanding on what exactly is going to be done, because otherwise maybe I'd have to change or increase my system. Hopefully there'll be some updates about when or if there will be any custom firmware in the future. I'd really appreciate it!
