Now I’m about the least fashionable person in the world, but I think that orange one is actually pretty ugly . . .
aghhh! They’re hideous!!!
would have looked much nicer on the silver body..
The 70’s called they want their brown leather back 😛
Not buying another Olympus until they add focus peaking to the E-M5 firmware update.
i don’t understand why people are getting angry at Olympus!? you bought the E-M5 knowing that it DOESN’T have focus peaking, why do you feel you are entitled to have this feature now? They never promised to upgrade nor signed a contract to give you this feature. stop crying and upgrade.
There’s nothing fashionable about leather: http://www.peta.org/issues/animals-used-for-clothing/leather-industry/
This is insane – on GetOlympus E-M10 with 14-42EZ is $1099 vs $799 for E-M10+14-42 II R. $300 for a smaller lens and a slightly different plastic on the camera’s front?!?! Who in Olympus thought about this?
This is Olympus focusing on the OMD line instead of doing a premium, EVF Pen or firmware for the EM5? They seem to be on a bad decision hot streak. I hope we see a reasonably priced 40-150mm and some compelling new bodies soon.
Sad move from OLY. They should focus on cheeper smaller camera’s or bigger sensor.
Wow, you guys are total haters 🙂 get over yourselves! I realize you’re entitled to your opinion but honestly, I’m a designer and I think they’ve done a really bold thing here, I think it’ll be a hit. I might agree they should have done it with the silver body though 😉 For me, the problem is the actual camera body instead of the color. Never liked it, too “blocky” and rangefinder-retro for the sake of retro instead of modern practical ergonomics.
The market is full of fashion-concious consumers who feel that the camera’s capabilities might as well be nicely packaged. Sure I have a GM1 but that’s for *practical* backup camera – but I use a G2 as a main camera because I feel practical functionality and ergonomics are more important.
I bet Olympus have calculated the ROI on this and decided to expand their market – I bet these will make some potential customers go for Olympus instead of a Lumix GM1 a big unsexy DSLR. I welcome this move from Olympus! Still won’t buy one though…
Personally I like this move. There are consumers who are fashion-concious, who just want a good-looking camera over actual specs. The retro design sells -Panasonic said yesterday in France for example, their GM1 sold due to the design- and the colours/”Collector’s edition” tag will help with the sales.
Oly needs money to stay in the camera business and hopefully satisfy us, tech-savy, advance users. Firmware updates, new lenses/cameras need R&D money and Olympus is running out of them…
I agree the tan leather would look nice on the silver body or if Olympus wants to be bold, they should’ve made the tan leather on a white body (like the p5).
They also have a dark green leather edition on the black body which looks more suitable. I don’t understand why people are complaining so much here… these are just more options for customers. if you are a true manly camera geek then stick with your all black cameras… boring!
Yay. For once Olympus has the right idea for the right market segment. Well, okay, they got it right with the EM5 and EM1, too, but they never got it right with cameras for the entry level consumers. People who buy the Nikon J just like to dress up their Barbies. Thank you Pentax for kickstarting the camera blingbling thing — over 200 colour choices, it would be hard to beat that.
