A trusted source told me the new OM-5 will use same sensor but also same battery as the OM-1.
OM-5 rumor summary:
Via trusted sources I can now confirm the new OM-5 will feature the same OM-1 sensor.
OM-5 rumor summary:
I have been told there will be a new “Lumix” camera announcement in September/October. But I am not sure if this will be an announcement for a new MFT camera or L-mount camera or both.
Multiple sources told me that OM Digital talked the production issue and we can expect the new gear to ship out without delay starting from summer. It’s a good sign also for the new OM-5 that is expected to be announced in late September…
OM-1 store links:
OM-1 at BHphoto, Adorama, Amazon. GetOlympus.
OM-1 in EU at Calumet DE. Fotokoch DE. Wex UK. Olympus DE, Olympus UK, Olympus FR, Olympus IT, Olympus ES. Olympus NL. Olympus BE. Olympus AT. Olympus CH.
I am now 99,9% sure OM Digital will announce the new OM-5 in late September. I have been told the camera shipment will start in October already!
Two trusted sources now told me that OM Digital has postponed the launch of the OM-5. The camera was indeed expected to be announced in Summertime but the new timeframe for an announcement is late September / early October.
OM-1 at BHphoto, Adorama, Amazon. GetOlympus. Calumet DE. Fotokoch DE. FotoErhardt DE. Wex UK. Olympus DE, Olympus UK, Olympus FR, Olympus IT, Olympus ES. Olympus NL. Olympus BE. Olympus AT. Olympus CH.
A source told me that the upcoming OM-5 will NOT replace the E-M5III. The E-M5II will stay in production.
The OM-5 will be announced in July/August. Not sure about the specs yet but I wouldn’t be surprised to see it using the same new OM-1 sensor…
