(FT5) Confirmed: Olympus E-M1II will start shipping the first week of December

I had a discussion with multiple sources and they all confirmed the new Olympus E-M1II will start shipping out the first week of December. Here are some additional info:

1) Olympus original plan was to ship the E-M1II by November 18. But Sony Kumamoto sensor production is still not running at 100% capacity
2) Olympus will have a major E-M1II try out event with journalist during the first week of November. I guess that’s when preorders will be opened.
3) A small quantity only will ship in December. Larger Stock will be available in January.
4) Price still hasn’t been confirmed yet. There is only a general Olympus comment about the price being in the Fuji X-T2 territory.
