OM interview: No plans to make a film camera, fixed lens camera. High Resolution cameras and new PEN are under consideration.

Phototrend had a chat with OM managers Kazuhiro Togashi and Sandro Rymann.

About the financial status:

We have seen an increase in our revenue and profits over the past three years since OM Digital Solutions was founded.

About the OM-3:

The OM-3 is our first camera launched after the establishment of OM Digital Solutions. We started from scratch. In the past, many users were worried about our R&D resources and investment capabilities. But we already have a plan for new products in the future, including lenses.

About possible film cameras:

Currently, we have no plans in this regard.

About a possible 4/3 fixed lens camera:

We don’t have any plans for that at the moment, but we are continuing to study the commercial potential of such a product.

About new PEN cameras:

The PEN series is a core part of the OM System lineup, and we are actively exploring the possibility of a successor.

About higher resolution sensors:

we continue to explore new sensor technologies, including those with higher resolution.
