Rumor has it that there is one last E-x body coming. That makes sense.
The E-5 was just a seasonal refresh of the E-3. There is lot of R&D
that Olympus invested that has yet to be seen. The OM-D is nice and
everything, but fails to address the fact that much more R&D was done
for the FourThirds bodies that never made it to market yet.
Fortunately, my monetary focus is elsewhere at the moment, so I can
withstand the temptation of the OM-D. I must keep up the 5Dmk3 chant.
