Olympus E-P3 (PEN 3)

By PR admin | Published: January 28, 2010

Yes, based on the information I received this teaser is for the upcoming Olympus E-P3. It will be a cheaper version compared to previous models. Don’t expect an announcement during PMA (maybe they will show a prototype?) – the official release is scheduled for Photokina or shortly before. After the Olympus E-P3 is announced, the E-P1 will be stopped from production.

      btw, from the little you can see on the picture, this doesn’t look like a tough cam plus I trust my source :)

        Now seems like it will be a m43 :) Interesting parameters anyway…

    Why does Olympus call it “innovation” if it’s just a cheaper body?

    Are they going to deny customers the option of an E-P1/E-P2 body without the EVF?

    So this will be the real “poor-man M9″? :P
    honestly speaking, I still find EP1/2 way too expesnive
    would be great if they can finally release a cheaper version and i will go hunt for a good used Leica lens :D

    I think if the new camera is going to be cheaper than the Ep1 , they should not call it the EP-3 . The Ep-1 would be in terms of features sandwiched between the Ep-1 and the EP-2. that’s confusing
    Hopefully we would get some real lenses some time before photokina ( 12mm , a 40mm)

    Bueno, ya sabiamos que la E-P1 no le quedaba mucho tiempo de vida, es mas, la han querido mantener para que la gente no hable.

    wow, this will be interesting. E-P1 is already very basic, I don’t know what else Olympus scrap from that model tho.
