OMDS says it is shifting to become an outdoor company making imaging products.

DigitalcameraWorld had a chat with OM Digital:

We were told of the plan to concentrate on promoting OM System as the obvious choice for any outdoor-type photography thanks to the portability of the cameras and lenses. OMDS says it is shifting to become an outdoor company making imaging products. The term “outdoors” encompasses wildlife, macro, landscape, travel and adventure.

Yep, this is what they often stated in previous interviews. But I want to add that the PEN-FII would be a perfect “travel” camera ;)

Stubborn OM Digital still thinks there is no market for a new PEN-FII

PetaPixel once more reminded us that OM Digital appears to not have real interest in making a new PEN-F successor. In chat with OM manager they said the reason is that they think it would NOT sell. I totally disagree. A well specced and designed PEN-FII is the only camera that can appeal to the younger generation of photographers. I might be even go so far to say that this camera has the potential to save OM Digital What do you think?
