More OM-3 info from testers
A couple of people who tested the new OM-3 told me this:
Tester 1:
Hello Andrea, I will place my order of the brand new Om-3! 😉 Immediately after the presentation on February 6th. The beautiful Om-3 contains all the last and the best technology currently available from Om System. But technology and high construction quality have a price, it is better to accept it (so start putting some money aside).
Tester 2:
Besides the looking, really nothing get exciting.
Tester 3:
Yeah, its bigger than the OM-5 but it still feels light.. What’s surprising are the colors and filters…like them more than the Fuji!
Tester 4:
It has some minor new features over the OM-1II…so there are improvements especially in autofocus.
Soon those preorder links will show the new camera:
