Lack of up to date pancakes in M43?

Re: Lack of up to date pancakes in M43?

Ugh... I just was thinking about this issue the other day, how all the pancake types are pretty "old." I want a weather resistant pro grade pancake. I think Olympus should do that next, and I feel like they are since they're promising "bright prime lenses" in the pro section of their latest roadmap. I love using my 17mm 1.2, but sometimes, I just want a smaller lens I can use in the rain. Seeing how the recent lenses are all f4 though leads me to believe we'll be seeing like f2 pro pancake lenses. At least that's is what I am hoping so badly for.
