Olympus launched a new E-M1 kit which includes the 12-40mm PRO lens. You can buy it for $1,299 at BHphoto (Click here) and Adorama (Click here). The lens alone sells for $899 which means you pay $499 only for the E-M1. A nice deal…but will you pull the trigger on that one knowing the E-M1II will be announced on September 19? :)
One of my trusted sources saw the new Olympus 30mm f/3.5 macro lens and told me that:
Olympus will soon launch the new 30mm macro along the 25mm f/1.2 PRO and the 12-100mm f/4.0 PRO lens. Olympus has a press ocnference scheduled for September 19.

An anonymous source sent me that image and the following text:
“Olympus to refresh the menu! It looks like modern hasselblad! And we finally got mysets to be renamed and stored. And own custom menu where we can add most used menu items!!!”
UPDATE: I got that video showing the menu:
Question to the source: Is this actually the new E-M1II?
