As you know the Esquisse is a Micro Four Thirds camera being developed by Photographer Côme Courteaul. The goal is to create a 350g like MFT camera with 20MP Sony sensor by end of 2026. Target price is $2000. He now updated the website with an interactive 3D image of the camera: esquisse.camera/preview. This is not the 100% final design and their note says:

The design shown here is still evolving. We’re actively refining details and exploring enhancements based on community feedback.

Asobinet reports that Japanese stores marked the E-M10 IV as discontinued. You can still find the camera in Stock in stores like BHphoto and Amazon.

The real question is whether this means OM will soon announce a new OM 10V. It would make sense… but I have no confirmation that this will happen at the CP+ show in February.

Om System Japan issued a press release about their CP+ presence. They write this about the “highlight” of the show:
