Seriously, Olympus. Where's my E-P6?

Experiment like a unique anniversary body that was designed just to be a unique one.

If happens that it would start to sell a lot, Olympus would revisit its plans about making a own line of it.

So read it this way: There is enough buyers to want a integrated viewfinder and special art knob in stylish expensive body.

So far if looking at it, there isn't. Even how sexy body it is said to be, how people love to handle it, but it just gets trashed down by many because "it is JPEG shooter camera" and "I can do better in front of computer". And then there are those who think that PEN F is for sports and birding and trash it by its C-AF performance (while it was from the start stated by Olympus it is for street photographers).

So, the problem with the PEN F is that it was designed for street photographers and a like, but gear heads hits back by wanting it to be everything as good as E-M1 or E-M1 Mk2 (PEN F Mk2) only because they want that corner EVF and sexy body.

So what Olympus has is special, some want it to be all, and it is question how well does it really sell for Olympus. Maybe well enough so they delay the E-P6.
