Olympus has issued a press release, confirming that it is working on a new camera body for use with its range of 'Top Pro' lenses. According to the press release Akira Watanabe, manager of Olympus's Imaging SLR Planning Department acknowledges that while Olympus has 'pushed the boundaries of performance' with the Micro Four-Thirds OM-D E-M5 (http://www.dpreview.com/products/olympus/slrs/oly_em5), 'it did not deliver with the legacy high end lenses from the E-system'. Although the statement is vague and very brief, it raises the interesting possibility of a sucessor to the E-5 (http://www.dpreview.com/products/olympus/slrs/oly_e5), Olympus's flagship Four Thirds DSLR. Released in 2010, the pro-grade E-5 is a camera that many commentors and Four Thirds users had assumed would be the last in the line.
We will update this news story with more information as and when we have it.

The pro-grade E-5, released in 2010, is Olympus's flagship E-system DSLR. Could Olympus be working on a successor?
Press Release: Olympus working on new body for top-pro lenses Akira Watanabe, manager of Olympus Imaging's SLR planning department, confirmed today that the company is definitely working on a body to deliver the focusing performance expected by users of the Top Pro lens series like the ground breaking 90-250mm f2.8 fixed aperture zoom.
Watanabe has been delighted with the success of the OM-D which has pushed the boundaries of performance for system cameras but acknowledged that it did not deliver with the legacy high end lenses from the E-System. Whilst further information wasn't forthcoming, he was keen to emphasise that Olympus is actively developing a solution and will announce more details in due course.
