Interesting that it has TWO grip attachments: One similar to old-school grips for manual focus film cameras, and another grip for vertical shooting. I don't think I'd use both of them together, but it's nice to have the option to enlarge you camera like that.

I don't know why all the negativity at 43rumors, I rather like it from the first two photos. Miserere, so you are the Enticing the Light guy - one of the sites I visit regularly.

looks like a dslr to me...

It would be a tiny DSLR. Once you see it in someone's hand, it'll be obvious.

I just wish Olympus could create a very small full frame camera like the OM was.

God I love the look of that camera. I want one!

Could be the micro camera that professionals would not mind using as a permanent piece of armament. And if it was alloy framed and water sealed, attractive indeed. It also has to look sharp and fulfill the dream of an OM class small but sleek and tough little bugger. So will be fun to watch and see what springs from the peak of Olympus.... Now, my only keen wonder at the moment is whether Olympus has managed to pull a rabbit out a hat ( a groundhog would do) by incorporating a dual focus system that would give the best of phase detect and contrast detect with an electronic finder of high res. If that happens, well hunky dunky time for the community. We all knew the 4/3 lenses were coups for the company. The bodies, well, not always quite good enough. Will the lens mount handle the large lens. Well,why not.

It needs to be a least as big as the original OM or it is going to seem like a tiny toy camera. Has anyone come across the dimensions.
