One source reports that the Olympus E-5 could use the new Fuji SuperCDD sensor. He is a good source that’s why I post it.
This rumor sounds a little more credible now that we know Fuji is joining the MicroFourThirds System!
The E-3 is still in Stock in most big online shops like amazon.com (heavy discounted). Recently some bigger price drops has been seen in Germany.

Thanks Uncle James.
My source clearly said “SuperCCD”.
When I was shopping for my first DSLR, I really wanted S2, it simply had the best photos (IMHO). But the price of the Nikkor 17-55/2.8 stopped me. (I wanted a decent kit lens)
Huh? If it was true i would say just Wow.
noise is an issue for Olympus . Well hope its true
a rumor said olympus e-5 with hdr technology…
The dpreview ”Fujifilm FinePix F200EXR” In-depth review, quote this small sensor as capable of about 10 EV of DR, imagine if they made him substancial larger, like 4/3 format.
I have Fuji s6500fd with normal SuperCCD and at ISO100 it has probably the same amount of DR in RAW as Olympus E-520. Maybe only a little less but it’s sensor is very small.
EXR is a Super CCD sensor.
