This camera is due at month's end or early December.

I would be seriously tempted to look at the EP-1 if at some stage Olympus includes a built-in optical viewfinder with either bright lines or auto parallax compensation similar to the old Contax G2 arrangement. The only digital rangefinder camera that suits my needs at the present time is one of the digital Leica M series, and they are stupidly, rather than reassuringly expensive. So come on Olympus, there are hundreds, if not thousands of us who would just love something like this. At the present time I own an EOS 5D and a Panasonic LX3.

Expected release date is June 15, 2009. Olympus has a PEN 50th Anniversary site up which is going to be updated every week. I will be posting updates here as well.
