Does Olympus have thousands or millions of these in the distribution chain? Is anyone buying at these prices? I think that at $200 for the body, then they would sell quickly.

Save on body, spend on lens.

The absence of it is hurting EPL5. If Olympus would improve codec/frame rates and add legit mic/headphone inputs they could destroy GH3 sales. Minor things could have a huge impact in attracting the video crowd.

4 months ago |The OMD (Sony manufactured) sensor has already made it into the EPl5 and EPM2. Once both the 5-way stabilization and the OMD sensor make it into some of the cheaper models, I plan to get one.

4 months ago |I am overwhelmed by the fact that so many people are sharing their consumer wisdom by what they are not buying and not by simply telling us what they have already purchased.
Personally the last three months I found out that E-PM1 with any m43 prime out-resolves OM-D with kit zoom.
