This is the first time I see the Olympus 75mm lens in Stock via third party resellers at Amazon (Click here). A new price drop on the Olympus XZ-1 which now sells for $289 again at Amazon (Click here).
UDPATE: Finally also Adorama (Click here) is accepting preorders on the GH3.

Wow, you save $0.99 by buying the lens! 🙂
why is the 75mm lens hood so cheap. i would buy for 200. because, “the performance is there”
Man… at first I read it as “Oly 75mm in Stock at Amazon for $289.” and I was about to dive for the link before I reread the headline.
FINALLY! Got one.
hahaa.. me too!
It doesn’t show Amazon; it shows ‘aSavings,’ whoever that is. Admin, be more careful; this has been pointed out many, many times before.
The ‘Admin’ doesn’t have to be ‘careful.’ The statement is true. It is (was) sold at Amazon’s site, by its retail partner ‘aSavings’. ‘Admin’ even gave us a snapshot of the deal. aSavings is also a reputable retailer… at least based on my experience on buying items from them for almost two years.
Sounds like the GH3 doesn’t have a multi-aspect sensor of the same size as the GH2. That makes it hard for me to justify the “up”grade.
If there is 75mm f/1.8, Oly should make quickly teleconventer x2 for it. High optical quality teleconventer plus high optical quality 75/1.8 – result should be good.
75 f/1.8 + teleconventer x2 = 150 f/3.5
Not so bad, much cheaper (and smaller) then Leica-Panasonic 150mm f/2.8 (in 2014).
