Olympus will likely not make a “rangefinder” designed EVF camera. Focus on f/1.0 lens instead.

Olympus manager Terada made it clear in that video interview that the EVF best position is on the lens axis. And this basically rules out the possibility for Olympus to make a PEN camera with an EVF in the corner just like the Panasonic GX7 or Fuji X-E2 cameras.

Olympus focus will be on the OMD development which basically saved Olympus financial results last year. And after the two next PRO lenses Olympus could focus on super fast primes. A very new patent published on February 20 shows an amazing 12 and 14mm f/1.0 prime lens (Source: Egami).

But what is the long term plan for Olympus? Fuji and Sony are releasing very strong competitors and Olympus needs to create something exciting to gain some market shares!

GoPro Hero 3+ Black Edition tested at Dpreview.

Guess what’s the most sold cameras at Amazon US (ranking here), the GoPro Hero 3+ Black Edition! It sells more than any other compact, DSLR or mirrorless camera!

And it now got tested by the Dpreview team that writes:

It has better battery life, quicker Wi-Fi speeds with longer range, is more compact with the new case, has a significantly improved microphone, and the best image quality I’ve seen from a GoPro to date. I love the addition of SuperView, and the improved wind noise reduction is a substantial fix. Low Light is still up in the air for me, even though the Hero 3+ does exhibit better sensitivity than previous models I’ve used. The still image capture options are almost endless, and very effective.

DSLR and Mirrorless markets may be stagnating but Sports Cameras like the GoPro still sell like hotcakes!
