Guys, I wouldn’t post this if I wouldn’t already have heard similar rumors before. I still have no confirmation from top sources so please don’t get too serious about that until I havent’ got more info. Anyway, the french magazine 01net.com reports that Olympus will launch a “professional hybrid” (which mean mirrorless) at Photokina and with availability in 2013 (found the news via Lepidi)
In the past Olympus said that for them a professional cameras is a cameras that has the advantages of both, Micro Four Thirds and Four Thirds cameras. An example of what Olympus could do is an OM camera with a special mirror adapter like the Leica Visoflex (here on eBay). Back in December Mr. Ogama from Olympus hinted about their future key technologies by saying: “All I can say is, when you look through the viewfinder, you’ll understand….“.

All I know from my top sources is that the Olympus E-M5 is NOT the high end professional camera and that there will be something “higher”. That is FT5
At that point I am asking my sources to confirm the rumor I got from unknown sources. Will there really “something PRO” at Photokina? Cross your fingers 43rumors readers
