I can confirm the new E-M5 successor will NOT have PDAF. Not yet 100% confirmed are the rumors that the camera has 4K recording and that’s weather sealed.
The E-M5 successor will be announced the first week of February!

Gordon Laing from Cameralabs posted the full Olympus 40-150mm PRO lens review:
It’s hard to fault the Olympus 45-150mm f2.8 on quality grounds. It produces sharp detail with good contrast throughout the focal range. This is a lens that you can quite happily shoot wide open without having to worry about edge definition, aberrations or distortion. Focus is something you need to be a little more aware of though.
40-150mm PRO shipping info at:
In USA/Canada at Amazon, Adorama, Bhphoto, GetOlympus and GetOlympus Canada.
In Europe at Wex UK, Technikdirekt and Amazon.
In Asia at Digitalrev and Amazon Japan.

The lats months I posted many Olympus and Panasonic patents. Some of them may show in what direction the companies are working. For example: we already know also from Manager interviews that fast primes are high on their priority list and there are plenty of patents of such lenses. So here is the roundup of the latest most interesting patents:
Olympus:
Built-in LED light flash for cameras (article here).
Global shutter (article here).
12-50mm f/2.8-4.0 lens (article here).
Lens Reversing Ring for MFT (article here).
12mm f/1.0 lens (article here).
250mm f/5.0 mirror lens patent (article here).
Panasonic:

Hybrid OVF/EVF (article here).
12mm f/1.2 MFT lens (article here).
f/1.8 prime lens series (article here).
100mm f/2.0 and 34mm f/1.8 lens (article here).
P.S.: Crossing my fingers for that 12mm f/1.0 lens :)
