OM system talks about the chip shortage: “we do not foresee any delays in our launch plan for new products”

OM Digital Solutions has told Amateur Photographer that it is facing ‘some limited product shortages’ but that it does not ‘foresee any delays in our launch plan for new products.’:
We are facing some limited product shortages which are not unique to us – for various reasons (high demand on key lines, Covid, assorted supply chain glitches) – but we do not foresee any delays in our launch plan for new products based on current info.’
This means we can expect to get the new OM “wow” camera ate the CP+ show ;)

Nikkei: Panasonic is struggling and only the focus on video can save them

Nikkei analyzed the current situation of the Lumix business. Panasonic shares on the Japanese market dropped down to 8%. Nikkei believes that the smaller MFT sensor format may be the limiting factor here. And Panasonic should focus on video centric cameras because in that segment the MFTs ensor size actually makes a lot of sense.
Still, I am surprise ot see OM Digital still holding well and being nearly on par with the big Sony-Canon companies!
