Youtubers review:
Epson was really ahead of time when they launched this rangefinder digital camera in 2004. And I still think this is a gorgeous piece of camera. And Epson Japan want to celebrate this camera by having a special event around it. You can even buy the camera if you want!
Yesterdays double Panasonic and OM Digital announcement was quite a let down. Panasonic only launched a special 20th anniversary Lumix page and repeated that the “GH6 is in development”. And OM Digital announced it would no more use the “Olympus” brand name.
The only small exciting news is that OM Digital posted some teaser images of their new OM flagship camera that they said will have new computational power:
Both, this new OM camera and the GH6 will arrive in early 2022 only.
