R&D against the wall?

Consider that for 2016 Olympus has only announced three new camera bodies seven/eight months ago. All development has been invested in the E-M1ii (makes four) - it does look a bit thin on the ground. How do they make it look like there is a real heartbeat at R&D?

Give the PL-7 a quick makeover and call it the PL-8 - five new models looks like a lot more is happening than just four (maybe).

Not looking real good. And some are throwing a whole lot of ideas at Olympus for their engineers to tackle in their spare time.

Panasonic is not exactly raging along by past glory levels either but has managed seven new models.
