I will make a quick rumor summary. Click on the linked text to open a new window with the original rumor article:

1) Olympus will at least announce two new FourThirds cameras. The E-620 successor and the E-3 (and E-30?) successor. The E-620 should use a new generation Panasonic sensor and be announced in February. The E-3 successor should also use “some kind of new sensor”. Available in March and maybe announcement at PMA (late February).
P.S.: Everyone is sending me rumors about that new sensor without giving me details about it :(

2) Panasonic will launch a new Lumix camera. Very likely a MicroFourThirds camera (G1 successor?)

3) Olympus will announce a new MicroFourThirds camera in May-June

3) Panasonic and Olympus will both soon launch the new MicroFourThirds lenses.
– Olympus 9-18/4.0-5.6 (February-March 2010)
– Olympus 14-150/4.0-5.6 (May-June 2010)
– Olympus 40-150 lens (February-March 2010)
– Panasonic Lumix G Vario f/4.0-5.6 100-300 mm (February-March 2010?)
– Panasonic Lumix 14mm pancake lens (February-March 2010?)
– Panasonic Lumix G 8mm Fish-Eye APSH f/3.5

4) And finally Samyang will release two new FourThirds lenses in March. The 85mm f/1.4 and 8mm f/3.5 fisheye!

Dear readers,
since over one month I am continually receiving rumors about the E-3 and E-30 successor. At the beginning I thought that there would be two new cameras but now I “believe” that the E-30 and the E-3 are probably going to be replaced by one single new FourThirds camera!

I have only few informations:
– The new FourThirds camera is going to be unveiled in March (late March?).
– Do not expect little upgrades over the E-30/E-3…do expect more! The new camera should have some kind of “special” sensor.
– It will not be a mirrorless camera
Keep sending your “rumors” at 43rumors@gmail.com or use the contact form on the right sidebar!

Thanks to all the people who sent me pieces and pieces of informations!

The dutch website tweakers.net had a small talk with Matt Spoor from Panasonic Netherland.  And he says “possible (G1) successors introduced in March“. Tweakers.net also says (google translation) “This could mean that besides a G1-successor even more new models in the pipeline, with possibly a replacement for the current GH1 Lumix camera.”

P.S.: Thanks to the guy who sent me the link!

Panasonic japanese web site

According to 43rumors sources Panasonic will launch a new Lumix camera. We hope to have more details soon. Anyway we believe we will see a new Panasonic G1 successor.
The new camera will be unveiled before the PMA 2010 (21 – 23 February).
