Cool
Sometimes I post stuff about other brands. Stuff I think is cool.
These may be leaked images of the new Olympus Micro 4/3 camera. I think I've had it on preemtive preorder for 6 months. I'm quite eager to see it.

I will be buying one to replace my emergency p&s for sure
count me in for sure. that thing looks sweet.
Oh and Ed, it has already been confirmed that it used SD cards, not XD.
Can you use the micro 4/3 panasonic lenses on this thing?
whats so special about the micro 4/3rds??
will this be like a G series with interchangeable lenses?
Hey Dan
Yes, the Panasonic lenses will mount.
The sensor is larger than that of G10.
There is no flip-up mirror in the optical path, so the camera can be a lot more more compact than a dslr.
Rumor has it that Canon may have something similar in the works. Maybe an APS-c sensor cam with interchangeable lenses that could take smaller lenses optimized for a non-mirror optical path, and ef/ef-s lenses with an adaptor. But I haven’t seen anything on that for quite some time.
I loved my old Olympus stylus epic with its 35 2.8 lens. It could even shoot some nice Velvia. Ahh… those were the days…
