Seems OK to me...

According to a relieable sourse on http://43rumors.com/ the camera is a least expensive m4/3 camera. There's even a leaked image:

http://43rumors.com/ft5-first-leaked-image-of-the-new-olympus-mft/

I hope it is not one of those E-510, E-520, E-410, E-415, E-15 and 3/4 type of stream starting there.

The reason I say this is that I am not sure such product diversity (with no real changes) actually helped the 4/3rds.

As long as really innovative products (ie., like the G1) show up, there is also no need to hide any (curtain or hands) another and claim them to be "innovative".

All part of the pre-release leak marketing to charge up the echo chamber... I think the iPad took that to the max - but there's a downside to raising everyone's expectations...

I'm really intrigued by what INNOVATION is being hidden here... looking forward to being blown away by the built in nuclear reactor :toocool: (will need my sunglasses to shield from the brilliance :ROTFL

Pop up flash. Look at the right hand side of the picture on the top plate.

OK maybe it is a big pop up focus assist lamp....now that would be innovation for Oly.

Wait till we see the actual product.

Perhaps, the pop-up will "automagically" pop-up!:ROTFL:

 

[Brian Mosley]

If it's a popup EVF, that would qualify as innovative. :toocool:

Now that would be cool.

Yes.

The chances of that happening is...

 

[Brian Mosley]

Yes.

Give me a break here, I'm trying to think INNOVATION! :deadhorse:

Remember the cool proposals you made earlier on wearable EVFs?

How could you top that with something as mundane as a pop up EVF?

 

[Rawfa]

The camera is even more compact than the E-P1:

How about a cam that tells you the last shot was stinky and you need to shoot another one only better. A built in critic :ROTFL::ROTFL::ROTFL:

heck these cams have so many menu items this would not surprise me for a second

Is there a limit to how many stinky before it shuts down and locks you out (like forgetting your password)

 

[ptomsu]

iEnhance, AF follow etc etc

I have learned since my EP2

But all great features!

And once you get used to them you do no longer want to miss any of them

 

[Guy Mancuso]

Yes 3 shots after that you are locked out for 5 minutes to ponder a better image.

Hell there goes my job right out the window. LOL

There is always a way for PWD recovery
