The last couple of weeks I got feedback from store owners saying the E-PM2 is now discontinued. Some of them also said the E-P5 has been discontinued too. They have been told by Olympus reps new model are on the horizon. It is likely that Olympus will announce them in a timeframe set between May and June. There are no info yet about possible specs. All we know for certain is that the PEN line isn’t as successful as the OMD line and Olympus needs to reinvent the wheel to make it very attractive! It’s likely the E-PL has been discontinued too (although store owners didn’t confirm yet).

You tell me what you expect from these new models! And sources may tell me what we can expect for real :)

P.S.: In US the E-Pm2 with double lens kit sell for less than $400 at Amazon (Click here).
