Re: At least a year away

It seems that an m4/3rds camera from Olympus is at least a year away. At this rate we'll get a look at the Samsung (probably Canon/Nikon/Sony too) micro system before we see the Olympus offering. The way they're going they'll be lucky if they aren't history before then.
Unreal!!!
That is the worry.
Well yes and no, from my perspective if they aren't going to develop 4/3rds products in the direction that offers what I need then really it doesn't matter if they sink or swim. They're only useful to have around in that sense.
As it stands Panasonic m4/3rds looks like it will mature into exactly what I want, a compact alternative system to a DSLR rather than a compact back-up to an existing DSLR system so while I'd have preferred Olympus to release an m4/3rds camera based on the E-300/330 Panasonics Bridge styled version will do.
