Photorumors received a tip “that Olympus distributors have informed some dealers about an upcoming Olympus EP-1 price drop.”
Are they making “room” for the new Olympus MFT?
Anyway coming back to the reality no price-drop has been noticed yet! Not in Amazon
Read the article in spanish or very bad (and sometimes funny) english google translation.
The most intesting points are:
“The budget and resources are limited, so you have to prioritize, and now is the time to focus on the Micro Four Thirds” -> No more FourThirds products?
“Removed the mirror, it seems logical that the next victim will be the mechanical shutter…” -> Cameras with electronical shutter in 2011?
Ships from and sold by Amazon.com!

There has been a leak inside the holland online-shop Fotobooms.nl showing the new Olympus lens 12-16mm F2.8-4.0 SWD (lens diameter=72mm) Price: € 889,00. The picture has now been removed! If you visit the Fotobooms.nl website you can read “geen foto”…no foto!
UPDATE: Probably only a typo error. The image shows the Olympus 12-60mm lens.
