Hi all,
I just heard from a "usually reliable source" that there will be a new
Bessa body early next year, probably being shown first at the PMA show
in Orlando in late February. No details yet, but remember our
speculation
about what market pressures might force Kobayashi-san to come out
with???
Any info I get that isn't under embargo I'll share here.
Lots of new stuff coming out early next year, including a return to pro
cameras by Olympus, with an interchangable lens SLR digital system.
This
was written up in Burt Keppler's column this week in Photo Industry
Reporter.
