A friend just sent me this

I can't wait till there is some more news and the specs. Anyone heard anything else about a possible replacement for the EM1M2?

I have heard rumors that Olympus will introduce a new sensor but nothing about a new camera. Many people erroneously believe that the EM-1 Mk. II is not a so called "full frame" but ALL the Olympus bodies if shot at the default 4:3 ratio are using the WHOLE sensor.
I have to believe that the new sensor will have more megapixels and that the new camera will have technologies not present in the current Mk. II body. I do not believe the new sensor will come with a new lens mount because that would mean for those who have the Mk. II to get rid off of what they have now and start all over again with a new system.
It is still early to elaborate on this and we will have to wait for Olympus to make an announcement, at the end of the year I guess.

I can hardly wait to see what is coming, But if it has a new lens mount, I would hope there would be an adapter, as I had to buy all new Gear almost 2 years ago when I switched to Olympus and I have no desire to buy all new lenses again.
