OM System says that they still have not decided the new PEN concept…and TG is only fixed lens camera they will make

OM System managers had a chat with Dpreview. And there are a couple of interesting notes:

1) The PEN lineup will continue, but they have not yet decided how:

We think the camera’s design must realize the concept of the product, so we don’t start to decide the camera design before deciding the camera’s concept: the product concept must come first.
Therefore, we haven’t yet decided if the product design for a new Pen will look like the Pen-F or similar to the E-P7 because we haven’t decided on the product concept.

2) There is no plan to make an enthusiast fixed lens compact camera:

We are continuing to study the development of a successor to the TG series, but currently we don’t have any plans to introduce other compact camera concepts.”

3) New fast primes coming:

We are also trying to develop small and light and bright lenses or something like that. We have space to make new lenses in the future. I can’t disclose [the details].

Summary:
So it sounds like we will have to wait quite some time before we get a new PEN model :(
