Re: WCON / xz-1

For my opinion: Olympus stopped producing the large & expensive WCON-07/07C years ago, and doesn´t see enough marked share to start producing/reworking it, for only one system & maybe a few 100 that could get sold

The TCON-17 is still under production, as it was an option to their last gen. SP´s, without need of any WCON, as their zoom range starts from 26mm equiv (last WCON-07 using cam was the SP-500).

p.s.: The 8080 had a mutch larger lens and is a different design, the 5050/5060/7070´s lens design is mutch closer to XZ-1
