My curiosity was piqued: https://www.ephotozine.com/article/olympus-stylus-sp-100ee-review-25532 . It has a dot sight!

A friend had one. The RDS was fragile and failed even under light usage. Lens was sub-par, not even i.Zuiko branded. Olympus quickly dropped it from their lineup.

One failure, without knowing much, doesn't really mean that every unit was rubbish. And looking in Google, the camera overall got pretty good reviews from all sites.

But it's now a four year old camera and I think they have quite rightly given up on small sensor bridge cameras.

The last larger sensor bridge camera is almost four years old as well. And you only have to look at some of the other small sensor cameras to see how quickly they are replaced.

I think overall Olympus is beginning to reduce the number of options available and rationalising what products sell and what do not.
