If there’s an Olympus (now OM System) camera that I see photographers longing for, it’s the compact and retro PEN series. But an OM System executive just dropped a major hint that the company plans to launch a new PEN camera under the OM System name.

Spanish photo publication Photolari interviewed two OM System executives at the CP+ show – Senior Vice President Tazuhiro Togashi and Director of Product Planning Hiroki Koyama – and recently shared the full transcript. Among the topics discussed is the highly requested PEN series – and the interview seems to confirm that an OM System PEN is in the works.
