We are sure everyone has in his mind this photo, the secret Olympus camera covered with a blue cloth. We already made the prediction that the final REAL camera will look different than the orange mockup. Now we have the first REAL confirmation give by a Japanese photographer. According to Kimio Tanaka, photographer and camera technology writer, the camera wore blue velvet was a real prototype very nearly finished! He said he couldn’t believe that story at first. But it was true.

Thanks to N.M. for sending us the link!
UPDATE: It is rumored to be silver.
UPDATE 2: Our main sources told us that under the cloth they have the final version of the micro four thirds camera!

You are right. That’s what we thought as first. The only 100% certain thing we now is that the camera will have a different look than expected. We hope to find some leaked images soon. Sorry for the confusion.
UPDATE: We asked our source for a definitive answer. Normally it takes some days or one week before they answer. I let you know soon.
Bye
thanks!
btw. very cool website

God please not silver. We wait years for a company to get their head out of the a** and make a camera like this and now it has to have a gimmicky colorway? C’mon Oly, black on black on black is where it’s at!
