so... are there any camera-related news today???

i have (very) few rss feeds in my "photo" category in google reader and i get about 5 posts a day on average. today i got 26. and 25 of them were about the new olympus E-P1 micro four thirds camera (the 26th one was some mamiya post from dpreview).

the 43rumors.com blog has a list of links about the camera and dpreview.com has a good preview. available for purchase in july 2009 according to the olympus press release (can preorder now).

i don't like the retro styling (at all) but what can you do... have to buy one anyway. maybe i can spray-paint it black so that it looks somewhat reasonable. good to see that this olympus camera does not have that waste of space called "xD card slot."

so, did you order yours yet?
