Nothing very exciting IMO.
Finally a proper EVF, it was time!
A bit more than 20MP would have been appreciated, it's about time as well. To me it's a big disappointment.
Regarding lenses, I wonder why a new version of the 12-40 f2.8.
I'd rather go with a 12-50 or 12-60 f2.8 or a 12-40 f2.

Yeah, the cost benefits of a smaller sensor are long gone.
The primary selling point is the smaller lenses (at the expense of DoF/Speed).
So Oly is right pushing it towards an outdoors scope - the OM-1 has an IP53 rating ... no other camera can compete with this.
I reckon the new lenses are also in this ballpark then.
That all being said - the biggest problem of the OM-1 is the GH-6. No video maker would seriously consider an OM-1 I reckon.
