That aside, it’s been real quiet on the Olympus front for a while. Should be ticking towards an E-3 replacement, an additional Pen and a 5xx series replacement.. let alone any new lenses. Bit too quiet really..

BUT if it is , it brings a VERY IMPORTANT question :
How many cameras can Panasonic announce before they can ACTUALLY have one available ?
