E-P5 comming - joachim - 05-03-2013

Hi


It seems the E-P5 is firmly on its way. The leaks are bigger than before. E.g.:

http://www.43rumors.com/ft5-body-only-and-17mm-kit-to-ship-in-june-no-14-42mm-kit-yet/


The images can be admired on the dpreview front page. Their statement of being unable to comment on specs - to me reads that they know much more abd have seen prototypes. I like the picture showing it in comparison to the E-M5.


The finder has a nice large eyepiece and is supposed to be next generation.


Interesting questions will be about pricing - in particular with that 17mm lens. Can they sell for more than the E-M5? How much is the VF-4 finder going for? Will the older ones (VF-2 and 3) work on the E-P5 and this one on the older Pens?


Details known so far seem promising.

At the same time Panasonic releases cams (G6, GF6) using almost 3 years old sensor tech. Very disappointing indeed.

When the E-P3 was new it was Olympus lagging behind. Would be interesting to know that story. Whether it was Panasonic not offering their 16 MP sensors or Olympus not wanting their sensors any longer.
