(FT5) Olympus will launch the new E-M5III in August/September

No surprise I know…but I can now confirm the E-M5III is Olympus next new MFT camera to be announced in August/September…
those of you hoping to get the new PEN-FII should rest in peace….Olympus plans no successor model because the first generation PEN-F didn’t meet the sales goal :(
