A Little History
January 2016 will be remembered for a number of new camera releases and a major snowstorm in Eastern USA.  I can’t remember a year when so many new camera announcements have been made so early in the year, especially during a Photokina year.   It looks like 2016 will be especially interesting, if some of the rumors have any teeth to them.

For the last few days I have been in Austin, Texas at an event hosted by Olympus.  As many of you know I am an Olympus camera owner and have been for years.  I was first turned onto the Olympus line a number of years ago while running a workshop in China.  A number of my Chinese attendees had the Olympus O-MD E-M5.  They were all talking about this small camera that one of them had bought before the trip. They loaned it to me for a day and I was really impressed.  Luminous-Landscape did a review of the O-MD E M5 back in 2012.  It turned out to be a camera Michael had for some time and for me I never let go.
