After weeks of rumors and leaks, Olympus' new PEN E-P5 finally became official today. It's the company's new flagship Micro Four Thirds PEN mirrorless camera, and features both retro styling on the outside and powerful specs on the inside.
Olympus has a major camera announcement day coming this Friday, but the cameras it's planning to unveil--the E-P5 and E-PL6--have been almost fully revealed now. New leaks have revealed the full specs for the E-P5, photos of a fancy "premium" version of the E-P5, and product photos of the E-PL6 (shown above).
Less than a week after first photos of the upcoming Olympus E-5 leaked onto the web, new photos have emerged showing additional views of the flagship Micro Four Thirds camera.
Last month, a rumor emerged saying that Olympus' upcoming E-P5 flagship Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera would have a design inspired by the old Olympus PEN F. Today the first photograph of the camera leaked on the web, confirming that it will indeed carry a sleek new retro styling.
Rumors are starting to heat up about an upcoming Olympus E-P5, which would be the flagship PEN camera sitting on the highest tier (we briefly covered how Olympus' PEN lines are organized in our recent review of the E-PM2). The latest things being said about the E-P5 is that it will have a new retro design, no viewfinder, and a relatively high price point.
