OM Digital has announced the new Olympus PEN E-P7 but not for the USA!

OM Digital Solutions has announced the new Olympus PEN E-P7 Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera. The E-P7 is OM Digital’s first camera release since the acquisition of Olympus by JIP was completed in January. It will be available in Japan and Europe, although it’s apparently not coming to the USA. At least, not yet.

The official announcement confirms that OM Digital will be keeping the Olympus branding for at least the foreseeable future. It features a 20-megapixel Live MOS sensor and high-speed TruePic VII processor with “advanced” continuous autofocus and Face/Eye priority performance brought over from the higher end Olympus OM-D cameras.

More photos and prices leak for Olympus PEN E-P7 – official announcement expected this week

More photos of the upcoming Olympus PEN E-P7 have leaked, along with prices. At least, the Japan prices, which start at ¥93,500 (~$855) for the body only, and a kit lens option bundled together with the Olympus M.Zuiko 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 EZ lens for ¥107,800 (~$986). Speaking of lenses, the new Olympus M.Zuiko Digital ED 8-25mm f/4 Pro is expected to be $1,099.

The images and prices come via 43Rumors, and an official announcement is expected to come on June 9th. Interestingly, Nokishita seems to be slacking on the Olympus leaks, although it seems that OM Digital Solutions isn’t any better at preventing them than any other manufacturer.

First photos leak of the Olympus PEN E-P7 and 8-25mm f/4 Pro lens – Shows Olympus branding

43Rumors has posted some newly leaked photos of the upcoming Olympus PEN E-P7 Micro Four Thirds mirrorless camera. It’s expected to be the first camera from Olympus since its takeover by OM Digital Solutions was completed at the beginning of this year.

OM Digital did say in a recent interview that a new camera would be available “in the next few weeks” and given that images are now leaking, it looks like it’s going to be the PEN E-P7, and it’ll still bear the Olympus branding.
