Who remembers this from 2008?

Here's this year's effort from Olympus.

It's only taken them four years to catch up with us.

I remember reading it and asking
myself, what is the point of such
a card when you can convert the
colour images or even better turn
the colour setting of in the camera?

I didn't realise it was April Fools!

Nice find... I wonder if I will start getting enquiries for these at work.

Given that they are HD Video, I would hope they can emulate sprocket rattle as well.
I am tempted if only to get some film canisters. I use them a lot & they are increasingly hard to come by.
