Olympus E-M5 Mark III Camera Announcement is Imminent

By on

In an interview at Imaging Resource, Olympus representatives confirmed that a new OM-D E-M5 camera is on the way. This would probably be the Olympus E-M5 Mark III camera.

Olympus explains the delay occurred in the announcement of Olympus E-M5 Mark III camera due to shifting of production plant from China to Vietnam. They have also assured that new Olympus Pro lenses are coming prior to the rumored 150-400mm lens in 2020.

From the interview, the executive clearly states that the company focuses on compact and lightweight products, high-resolution lenses, and strong image stabilization.
