While the company may be best known for its cameras, its actually built around a $2.6 billion endoscope business, of which it virtually holds a worldwide monopoly. Its camera business, on the other hand, is operating at a loss.

Fuji would be the best company to buy the Olympus camera division (which I hope they don't have to).

Which means of course we'll get stuck with Sony.

I sincerely hope that they will release all of the m4/3 and 4/3 spec. to the public before they choose to sell the camera division. The system has been developing well for now, besides having only two major players, we don't want this to end if the new owner decides to close it completely.

I would be surprised if a Japanese company bought Olympus camera and Fujinon really doesn't need anything that Olympus has to offer in terms of technology.
