I can hardly wait

Me either
I would like this to be a RF style, AKA X100 like....

Back in the 70's, the Canon GIII 17 and Minolta 7s, Olympus EC/SP, and Yashica Lynx series where the most popular body styles..
There must be a reason for this... That is way the Fuji X100, and X10 are so popular IMO..... The Tried and True Body Style...

Latest rumour is that Fuji may have all of the Olympus style cameras by then.

Well, would that make an interesting deal?

That coud Change the look of Olympus M4/3 Bodies in the future, and may influence Panasonic a bit too, if Fuji starts to the X style bodies for these.

It would be nice to see a Fuji sensor in a MFT body.

Here is some more info
http://www.43rumors.com/hot-olympus-new-strategy-no-mroe-pen-cameras-e-5-successor-and-new-viewfinder-technology/

1) Olympus is currently developing a new series of Micro Four Thirds cameras. So no more PEN cameras!
2) Olympus is developing a brand new concept of cameras
3) Camera will empathize a new viewfinder technology
4) Olympus is developing an E-5 successor.

Looks like some advance "Leak" to help Oly Fans not abandon them next year....

Just read that this early morning
Very exciting news, specially for E-x system users who have been waiting WAY TO LONG for a E-5 update

I hope the new magical EVF will work with the E-P3, but I'm not getting my hopes up.
