The MFT-is-dead narrative keeps circulating, but the OM-1 II with that 50-200mm f/2.8 PRO is a genuinely compact telephoto setup that full-frame shooters can't match on weight without spending considerably more.

Per 43Rumors, OM System's new PEN camera is confirmed for a September 9 announcement. Leaked specs point to a 20MP stacked sensor matching the OM-3 and OM-1 II, weather sealing, a creative dial, fully articulating screen, and an integrated viewfinder — the last of those being a notable step up from the E-P7 it reportedly resembles.
