(FT5) New Olympus lens is “similar” to the Four Thirds 12-60mm zoom. Coming before Christmas?

I am still not sure WHEN Olympus will announce the new lens but I a sure it will be soon and probably before Christmas! Two sources told me that the new m43 lens is very “similar” to the [shoplink 23681 ebay]Olympus Four Thirds 12-60mm f/2.8-4[/shoplink] zoom you see pictured on top of this post. But there will be differences. My guess is that it will have a different aperture. A trusted source told me that it is a High Quality lens with super fast autofocus like the [shoplink 23576]Olympus 12mm f/2.0[/shoplink].
One more thing. There will be NO new camera announcement yet, but I have been told we don’t have to wait too long… :)
Stay tuned!
