Olympus' PhotoKina 08 Preview

PhotoKina is already on us. The world's largest Photo show is promising to be big again.

Last week we had the Panasonic G1 announcement, this week, we have Olympus announcing its first mid-tier camera. This may be as equally large of an announcement as the Micro 4/3, which according to many was the biggest news in photography this year. This annoucement should show Olympus' commitment to their SLR line, as well as promises a missing model to Olympus' SLR line.

Secondly we have Olympus officially announcing its entrance into the Micro 4/3 market. (Panasonic did earlier this month.)

If you are going to Photokina- Post your photos in the link below and share your adventure with us around the world.

I really find it interesting as other cameras seem to go larger, the 4/3 standard is going smaller. To me that sound like a much better idea. (But of course I am the guy who carries nearly all the top pro lenses with him each day) - tspore

As I get more info I will post it in this article.

Here are a few more pictures of the new Olympus 4/3 body.

9-23-08 We have some more stock photos of the micro 4/3 body located on page 4.

A imaging resources video from PhotoKina that is a must see.
