Olympus PEN with built-in EVF leaked?
Ohhh things are becoming hot! The next Olympus Pen
Just received this:
New Olympus MFT camera with built-in finder
Size 109 x 70 x 50mm – 417.3g
It comes with a 42mm f/2.8 lens (3 feet close focus)
Two-bladed mechanical leaf shutter
It has a higher dynamic range (16 EV in Black and White) than the Nikon D3X
This results has been archieved because the camera is not only mirrorless but also sensorless! It directly captures the light without the need of a digital sensor. The organic sensible material replaces it!
And it costs you $100 only!
This one comes from one of my best sources:
(Thanks April !)

3 years ago |This may be April Fools Day but what strikes me as curious is everything from the picture down as far as the two bladed leaf shutter is plausible even if the rest is pure obvious fiction? Consider that to include an EVF inbody the body would have to BE chunky with more depth as depictured in the fake rumor picture? If a total fake wouldn’t it just be a sweve model as most other depictions of a Pen? Oly was reported on working on getting a small prime similar focal length to Pany’s 20 so a 21/f2,8 not unreasonable to keep size down? Looks like a possible prototype with a small legacy lens attached to front adapter? The overall dimensions seem on the small size but not the fuzzy picture. Possible a low end rumor leak to 43rumors with admin adding on the bottom specification April Fools tidbits?

3 years ago |Well, actually the EVF is detachable from the camera, and connected wirelessly ( bluetooth??), so that it can be mounted as a heads up display on your glasses.
Only $150 will buy you a second wireless EVF, for use of the director, the second camera man, or for those group Borg self-portaits.

3 years ago |Even if this wouldn’t be on April 1st, that Camera looks more like a +real” retro camera, Olympus try thses days always to style their products retro, that could be cool if done good. Maybe i should apply as a product designer for Olympus!
