1)Â 12MP sensor (effective megapixel)Â 99%
2) BodyIS 50%!
3) 3.0 LCD and no swivel 85%
4) New liveview which works very well with the BodyISÂ 99%
5) ISO 200-3200 50% .  Other option is 100-3200 50%. May this will depends from the final firmware.
6) Two colours – Silver (with black parts) and White/beige (and a black model?) Â 79%

9) One more lens to come? Maybe a second zoom? 35%
10) Same autofocus as the Panasonic G1Â Â 50%
11) Video 720p ( Video Record can use 6 ART Fliters, and there is audio recording) 99%
12) Size 120×70×35mm 70%
13) SD/SDHC cards
14) The E-P1 can control an external flash (the FL-XXR)

UPDATE:
18) 17mm external viewfinder 70%
By the way, we only have to wait 6 days to know all what we have to know 
17mm Optical viewfinder available.. (opion parts) 99%
No all black option would be a great shame
Hi Jerry! What’s the source of that rumor? Bye
I agree with you cherry. But may they will present a black model in future…
my friend said (camera seller)
He had to use E-P1
he said to me, EP1 use SD card and 17mm optical viewfinder
Many thanks Jerry!
I wil add this with a percentage of 70% because I do not know how much I can trust your friend
oh sorry!
not optical (my mistake)
i heard 17mm external viewfinder
Still no mention of the the real surprise the camera will deliver
What’s the real surprise then?
Hoping we’ll be able to use Leica lenses as well like on the Panasonic. BJP has a test here on this: http://www.bjp-online.com/public/showPage.html?page=861668 Interesting!
This will be a major let-down if they maintain that black ‘patch’ and not have it wrap around the entire camera like the their old PEN models. Where is their sense of style/history? I’ve been waiting so long for this camera; would hate to have to wait even longer for a better made one.
I’m praying those latest photos are a “red herring” (distraction) to the real item.
Well it’s not as long as i’ve thought now
By the way…this post picuture looks AWESOME !!
It’s possible that the confilcting reports about megapixel size is because there is a difference between “sensor photo detectors” and “effective pixels” For example, the specs for the GH1 state that it has 12.1 effective megapixels, but 14 megapixels is the listed sensor photo detectors. This is probably due to the fact that the GH1 can take photos in several aspect ratios. I hope the same is true for the E-P1!
Hi Rob!
that’s what I (alejandro) believe. I received some rumors saying the E-P1 will have the same sensor as the GH1.
alejandro,
How cool would that be if it had the same sensor and same aspect ratios? One of the things that I liked about the GH-1 specs was the option to shoot 1:1 – that would be fun!
It would be even cooler if it had this color scheme!!

[...] VÃa | 4/3 rumors [...]
If you look at the specs on the E620 it states “13.1 million total pixels”, “12.3 million effective pixels”. Every sensor is like this; there are always pixels outside of the active area.

Now this is perfect!
