A frame-by-frame breakdown of OM System's new PEN teaser by Asobinet has surfaced several design specifics: square EVF instead of the PEN-F's round finder, diopter adjustment dial on the right, cleaner top plate without engraved logo, and a mode dial adding C1/C2 custom positions. The shutter button drops thread compatibility for soft releases, and the power switch moves from left to right.

OM System's new PEN is a 20.4MP Micro Four Thirds body with 5.5EV IBIS, a 2.36M-dot EVF, and 30fps burst shooting — available now at around USD $1000 body-only. It's the first top-tier PEN in five years and the first sold in North America in a decade, using plastic construction from the E-P7 but adding the viewfinder that defined the PEN-F.

The new OM System PEN lands at $999 body-only (or $1099 with the 14-42mm kit lens) and claims the title of cheapest weather-sealed ILC on the market. It runs a 20MP Four Thirds sensor with IBIS, a 2.36m-dot built-in EVF, vari-angle touchscreen, and Pro Capture at full resolution up to 30fps. Video tops out at 4K/30p. Amateur Photographer rates it class-leading at the price, with the main trade-offs being a 20MP ceiling, no built-in flash, and video that trails rivals.
