(UPDATED) E-P5 in Stock at Amazon and Samys. Image share APP 2.0 released.

We have some Olympus E-P5 related news. Here they are…

First the three good news:
1) The white E-P5 body is in Stock and shipping at Amazon (Click here) and Samys (Click here).
2) Today Olympus releases the an updated for the OI Share app to support the new E-P5 (links on iTunes and Google Play).
3) There is already a 43 pound price drop on the still to be released E-P5 at Amazon UK (Click here). Lucky guys!

Ok, that was the good news part…now the bad news:
1) While the APP and the white E-P5 are here the camera EVF+lens kit release has been postponed at Amazon (1-3months) and BHphoto (July 18).
2) There is a new Olympus E-P5 review at Digitalcamerainfo. They prefer the OMD over the new PEN:

“There are really very few convincing arguments in favor of the E-P5. On the other hand, there are plenty of reasons to choose the OM-D: weather sealing, an integrated (if marginally less useful) EVF, and the option to add a secondary battery grip.”

Unless you need 1/8000 shutter, Wifi and other new tidbits the E-P5 has it’s hard to justify the price difference between the two! Right now the E-M5 is $130 cheaper than the E-P5.
