You know, the more I think about it, the retro homage to the OM system  
(without it being properly compatible with the OM system) really,  
really bothers me. The "OM" name on this camera bothers me. Kinda like  
Olympus Marketing department rubbing salt into the wounds of the  
abandonment of the OM (and 35mm-capture-area) system.

Very nice looking camera, no doubt. Looking forward to try one out.  
But riding on Maitani's (and OM's) name like that for a different  
product bugs me a bit. I guess it is theirs to ride on, but still...?
