(FT5) Price of the E-M1 and 12-40mm lens in YEN
There are the prices in YEN of the new Olympus camera and lens (Source: Digicameinfo). I converted the price in Euro and Dollar but as usual keep in mind that the price will be different because of TAX and VAT reasons.
1) E-M1 body ¥ 145,000
Converted: 1100 Euro or $1500
2) E-M1 with 12-50mm f/3.5-6.3 kit lens ¥ 175,000
Converted: 1330 Euro or $1800
3) E-M1 with 12-40mm f/2.8 kit lens ¥ 220,000
Converted: 1670 Euro or $2200
4) Power Battery Holder HLD-7, ¥20,000
Converted: 151 Euro or $200
5) PT-EP11 Waterproof housing, ¥100,000
Converted: 750 Euro or $1000
6) 12-40mm f/2.8 lens only, ¥90,000
Converted: 681 Euro or $900
The good news is that the 12-40mm f/2.8 lens is cheaper than the [shoplink 31225 ebay]Panasonic 12-35mm X lens[/shoplink]!
