Keeping it simple

I'm not sure how realistic this is, but I'd love to see...

E-P6:

Simply update the E-P5 with newer internals; keep the tilty (not flippy) screen; no EVF; keep the kinda standardized BLN-1 battery).

E-M3:

(The E-M1ii got too big for me. I think the EM-1 is the perfect form factor). Now that the EM-1ii has gotten bigger, they should bring back the shell of the EM-1 as the new EM-3. It would be the only Oly enthusiast camera with a flip screen and it would keep the BLN battery and hand grip. They could add some (not all) of the EM-1ii internal upgrades.

Lenses:

The PRO primes are very nice, but not for me. I love, and have all of, the 'premium primes.' I'd like to see a few 'premium' zooms that focus on high quality at a small(ish) size. For example, I'd love to have something like the new Panasonic 8-18 made by Olympus.

For 2018 I want the same I've always wanted for 50 odd years ........ the perfect shot. Never taken one and never seen one, so that's the goal and all I need to get or see.

All the best and have a good one with family and friends.

Danny.
