Olympus Japan and Olympus Malaysia are sending out invitiations for a first “touch and try” event with the new PEN. But I have been told by one source that the announcement will be made earlier “probably around May 9”.
Here is an original Olympus email invitation received by one of our readers (Thanks!):
“Olympus Malaysia posted in PEN lovers, V capture N share life in a mightier way
Olympus Malaysia 2:37pm Apr 27
Find out more about the NEW premium PEN at our event on 11th May 2013. You’ll get to touch and try on the new PEN, know more about the Olympus Technology plus witnessing some live demonstration that will surely ‘WOW’ you.
So, register now at http://home.olympusimage.com.my/event-main.html and be the first one to experience it.”
As usual follow 43rumors on May 9 to see our live Olympus announcement coverage!

8 months since the E-PL5. Hope it was worth the wait!
Hi, may I know how I can get an invite? Or is this media only?
I would take that as a…no.
You shouldn’t post the link. You shouldn’t.
why? That’s an open visible link. Not a secret 🙂
Hi admin, Robin Wong lives in Malaysia and in the past he reviewed some Olys stuff. I hope he has been invited. Otherwise you should let him know. What do you think? The number of free seats is limited. Thanks 🙂
I’m quite sure Robin knows more than Admin… 😉
-p-
obviously 🙂
I am sorry but you are very W{R}ong if you think he does reviews , he does infomercials no more no less
If the link was only shared in the invitation e-mails and can’t be found elsewhere, why would you assume that other people besides the ones being contacted by Olympus by e-mail are supposed to get that link?
Didn’t you realize that you were on a rumor site, hoping to get some advance knowledge about upcoming mFT from insiders sources with information that they also probably shouldn’t be sharing,though half the time the “leaks” are really just advertising strategies
You should mind your own business
She is
“NEW premium PEN”. Either the presentation is about E-P5 only or E-PL6 won’t be announced at the same time.
Will Oly use new AF in the E-PL6? Though I am interested more in the E-PL5 price reduction.
“new premium Pen”
Uh-oh, when they say premium you know it’s gonna be big $
Well that’s kind off the point, silly that you think otherwise
Anonymous, is English your second language? Your comment makes no sense. It’s silly that I think otherwise about what? I said when they mention the word “premium” that means big $. Where does “otherwise” come into play? Your statement implies I think the opposite of what I said, which is just bizarre. Please try to explain, in clear English. Thanks.
Perhaps Anonymous thinks you think otherwise!!!
Am I in a Month Python sketch? 🙂
Careful now I am pretty sure that parrot is dead !
In Germany, you can often hear a dialogue where someone says something negative like “The weather forecast was wrong again”, and the other person asks in a tone of irony, “did you think it could be otherwise?” or says: “It would be naive to think it could be otherwise”. Maybe he meant it that way.
Thanks Bo- that makes sense. And LOL at Riley’s comment. I loved that sketch! 🙂

Admin,
What is a “presnetation”?
😛
fixed sorry. Was in hurry while writing this 🙁
Just saw the 43rumors leaked image of the new PEN E-P5 together with a photo of the old PEN F. I am sure the new one is a good camera, but the old PEN F looks so much nicer.
As a side comment I read somewhere that the E-Px line was intended like yuppie cameras, they must be sophisticated and slick, but not necessarily practical.
I believe that Oly made a choice: to associate the top of the line OM-D with its past OM glory. If the E-P5 had had a built in EVF, the OM-D would have been disrupted.
It ould be interesting to see how many shutter actuations those cameras are rated. I read that the OM-D was 100.000. Is the E-Px half of that?
So we see that despite one thinks the company is listening it still takes decisions based on Marketing which might not be what people expect, or even rational. Consumerism still rules despite camera saturation.
