I think that is what they tried to do. Many of the cameras were already named OM-... so they are relying on folks knowing what OM means. Sad for the TG guys but the more expensive cameras were and probably will continue to be OM-xWhy throw out a catchy name with strong brand recognization for something very generic and unimaginitive-sounding?
Hopefully there will be new cameras with new sensors coming soon.
A little off topic however I am curious as to which brands Olympus lenses will fit. Any and all info will be appreciated.
I just looked it up. All M 4/3 cameras share the same lenses.
That was one of the biggest drivers behind my decision to buy M4/3. I figure that the standard and glass will outlast the electronics in camera bodies. The biggest bummer of being forced to use a new body is it obsoletes my housing.
