In Leaked Olympus E-P1 Micro Four Thirds compact has us hot, bothered, Engadget has pumped out some possible specs on a camera which interests me – a lot. Judging by the pics it’s exactly the kind of expensive plastic I’d like to have in my sweaty man-hands when I don’t feel like lugging my DSLR around. Having said that, this piece is packing a “DSLR-sized sensor” and several lenses becoming available. At launch a 14-42mm will be available. Not sure what SLR-like capabilities it’s going to have yet.

I’d still love a nice Leica to play with but they’ve always been a bit too pricey for a non-SLR. This unfortunately doesn’t seem to be much different, clocking in at an expected $900USD.

Have you some pics in the meantime (thanks to the afore-linked Engadget post)!
