Olympus are set to release “several” new DSLRs during 2005, along with no less than 7 new e-system lenses, at least according to a recent report on the Photo Imaging Council of Australia website. Presumably there will be a replacement for the ageing (in digital terms anyway) E-1, and maybe 2 models to fit in between the entry-level E-300 (pictured) and the new top-end professional model (that’s just my educated guess though). Great news for all current E-system owners as Olympus continues to invest heavily in its DSLR product-range.

I’m not sure if the Olympus product manager for Australia who spilled the beans is going to be in trouble or not for this

“Our aim is to aggressively continue our growth in the DSLR category by investing heavily in our E-series range. 2005 will see Olympus building on the success of the E-1 and E-300 cameras with the launch of several new DSLR bodies and seven more digital lenses,” said Austin Kazami, Olympus DSLR Product Manager.”
