(FT 5) first Olympus micro four thirds camera on June 16th

• April 1, 2009

• 5 Comments

The first Olympus micro four thirds camera will be presented the 16th of June and available the last week of July. The camera presented by Olympus will look slightly different then the one shown in various events. The digital camera will definitely not have EVF. Probably we will see a 3.0 inch LCD. Price should be around 900$-950$ WITH KIT LENS!

We got our infos from german forum. The German forum says the date is June 15th but in Japan it should be the June 16th.

We know it is April 1th the fools day, but this is NOT a Joke! :)

In short, the poster is the administrator of the forum. He believes the camera will have body IS. He don’t know WHEN the camera will be avaible…but we know it ;) More soon…

Olympus E-450

So here we are. One day before expected (from our sources) Olympus announced the E-450. We told you they would announce the camera in April (our sources told us the first April). Olympus choose to anticipate the annoucment because the first april is fools days in some countries. Not the best choice for an announcement…nobody would believe them! ;)

We were completely right on the main features, no video, no body IS, art filter, same resolution as the “old” E-420. In general we told you that this camera will be very similar to the Olympus E-420. You just have to add ART-filter ;)

If you want to read more about the camera:

Olympus Asia

Olympus America

Imaging resourcing

That’s a real good start for us! Only few believed us.

We were right no?

(FT 2) no video in Olympus digital cameras ?

We received an email from unknown sources. So please keep in mind that he could be completely wrong (or just joking with us). This sources says he works for Olympus and he knows that for 2009 we are NOT going to see any DSLR camera with video. He told us video is not a primary feature requestet by Olympus user. Plans are to wait the evolution of this tecnology. The digital cameras with video we have seen until now are not really good competitor to traditional camcorders so Olympus has not to be hurry anyway.

That’s what he told us.

I keep his contact in mind.

UPDATE: I asked him if he believes there will be NO video feature even for micro four thirds camera. He answered he is only sure about classic four thirds DSLR. May Olympus has different plans for micro four thirds cameras.
