What can we expect from OM Digital in 2025?
Let’s start with the likely new releases:
- Telezoom: there is one last unannounced lens on the lens roadmap, the “Telezoom, which could be something like a 40-200mm PRO series lens.
- Vintage OM-1II: The rumors about a possible vintage version of the OM-1II are intensifying. Same specs, but more “classic” look. OM-1II
Old cameras that need to be replaced (but not yet a rumor):
- PEN E-P8: The E-P7 is selling very well in Asia and after four years it’s time for a new model, right?
- OM-10V: The E-M10IV is now 5 years old. It would be nice to get a new update.
Unlikely to happen:
- PEN-FII: OM Digital is asleep at the wheel and I don’t think they will release a new PEN-F.
- Other lenses: I haven’t heard any solid rumors about possible fast lenses or other lenses. It could be that the telephoto zoom is the only lens we will get in 2025.
I’m almost certain that we’ll get the Zoom and the old OM-1II. And maybe an OM-10V and/or a new PEN at the end of 2025. What are your expectations?
