The retrotastic Olympus E-P1 launched last month with much fanfare. (not pictured above) It turned out to be an alright camera as Peter found out. You may want to hold off buying one just yet though. There might be another version coming soon if this rumor is correct.

Photo Rumors is reporting that in the latest issue of Chasseur d’Images, an Olympus spokesman revealed that the E-P2 should launch by the end of the year. Plus, said camera is to sport a viewfinder, which is something that the pocket E-P1 lacks. Hopefully the second incarnation sticks with the throwback digs but ups the photo taking capabilities a bit. Oh, and no dead pixels this time.
