Re: Guy, time to buy a third one at $359

The market has to rationalise. Olympus is not well placed to have too many models all fighting for space.

The OM-D line is now more or less established with three levels of camera. There's a natural progression where someone entering with the E-M10 can either go to the E-M5 and then the E-M1, or jump straight to the E-M1.

The Pen line needs to do much the same and I suspect that it can only sustain two levels, two versions of the Pen-F, a high end and a lower-end model. The Pen line has to provide cameras with an EVF, as that's what everyone else is doing so, at the end of the day, the E-P line has to end.
