43rumors reader Erwin just sent me that image and wrote: “I got this Lufthansa Miles&More WorldShop catalogue about 2 weeks ago, showing the OM-D for 1.099 €“. Yesterday we got notified that there is a similar deal in Holland (here is the pdf flyer).
I still don’t see that price drop in German Stores like Amazon Germany. Let me know if you find them in Germany and in the rest of Europe! Thanks!
UPDATE: Jarrkko sent me that message: “OM-DE with kit lens sells in Finland for 1 099,00€ (incl. VAT 24 %). See more at: https://www.topshot.fi/category/491/olympus-om-d“
UPDATE_2: In UK price drop too at SimplyElectronics.

Probably also available elsewhere since it came in a nice branded box.
I bought my E-M5 in Italy, body only, for 850€ in june 2012, it was not a promotion, just the regular price in that shop. I think that these “offers” are just selling the E-M5 at his correct price.
I’m in France and searching on the net, I have:
– 777 euros body only here: https://www.google.fr/shopping/product/15955657154217666690?q=e-m5&hl=fr&rlz=1C1CHFX_frFR513FR513&bav=on.2,or.r_cp.r_qf.&bvm=bv.43287494,d.ZGU&biw=1920&bih=979&sa=X&ei=JZs9UduRMOj17Ab5kIHgDw&ved=0CF8Q8wIwAA

In Japan also ¥ 10,000 less:
http://shop.kitamura.jp/DispPg/001002001005-001002001
Body only around € 680,-
Menu in Japanese only 😉
…I could use a massive Panasonic 7-14 or Olympus 1.8/75 price drop here… 🙂
@Jules I dont know where you are located Jules but i recently bought the Panasonic 7-14 from http://www.onestop-digital.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=33939 for £673 which saved me £152 on the best UK price. Delivery was very quick no problems
I am in Canada.
The newest m43 lens are priced comparable to what you get in USA. Older ones such as the 7-14 are… rather more expensive.
On the other end of the scale, you’ve got prices here in Serbia, which are probably the highest in Europe. The lowest price for E-M5 with 12-50mm lens is this http://www.comtradeshop.com/digitalni_foto_aparati/olympus_o-md_e-m5_black_objektiv_12-50mm-16266 . That’s around 1160 euros!
Keep dreaming about the highest prices in Europe… 😉
In Ireland body only 1150 euros, with kit lens 1350… 🙁
OM-G 🙂 ! Why are prices lower in those wealthier countries?
As usual Miroslav, you pay “luxury tax” while having “beggars” salaries. Nothing has changed in that department since ex-Yu. Same game, just different players. You pay more than in other countries and usually get products that are not of same quality (this does not apply on cameras)..
Simply Electronics sells the OMD E-M5 with the 12-50 zoom for £795, with the weak pound that equates to about 690€ but your card company may charge you more. Also bear in mind that simply electronics often takes a bit longer to deliver than stated
That’s 980 euros, NOT 690! £1 = €1.25 B-)
Current exchange rate £/€ is 1:1.15. As mentioned, your card provider may not give you this rate, so probably only worth it if you can transfer via an exchange company but you can ask
Admin, do you want to put a link in to simply electronics?
I wish that was the case but alas £1 currently = €1.11 so €980 would be roughly £883
Even in our country (Czech Republic) had OM-D recent price drop about 80€ (roughly), still price with kit lens is about 1080€
It is 1120 EUR in Hungary for the body. Way too expensive!
1109 € in France vs 1399€ Black with kit lens 12-50mm.
Definitely believe that which you said. Your favorite
reason seemed to be on the web the simplest thing to be
aware of. I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people consider worries
that they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the whole thing without having side effect ,
people can take a signal. Will probably be back to get more.
Thanks
