The Olympus E-P2, initially only available in black for markets outside Japan, has now been available also in silver for quite some time. Recently, an all-black special edition with black FL-14 flash and black 17mm f/2.8 lens was announced. And now, another original E-P1 colour will be available for the E-P2 — the very retro-looking white version. DCWatch just published an announcement from Olympus Japan, according to which the E-P2 in white will be available from October 15th.

Also, an accessory lens cap featuring the famous “F” logo of the original Olympus PEN F will be available, according to DCWatch.

According to 43rumors.com, tomorrow will be an exciting day for fans of Olympus’ Micro Four Thirds lineup. For one thing, two new lenses will be announced. One will be the long-awaited Micro version of the Zuiko Digital 40-150mm f/4-5.6 tele zoom, the other will be a new super tele zoom with 75-300mm focal range (150-600mm in full-frame terms), surpassing Panasonic’s announced 100-300mm super tele zoom by 25mm on the “wide” side.

Also exciting will be a new black E-P2 kit, featuring an all-black M.Zuiko Digital 17mm f/2.8 pancake lens and an all-black external flash – probably a black version of the FL-14. All products are rumored to be announced to tomorrow, so stay tuned!

Holy lion of zion! You guys surely took your time! The E-P2 was released when? Oh yeah – back in January, right. Let me do the math here, that’s … three months. Ah, whatever … better late than never, right?

So what they did is reviewing the E-P2 in their new ‘quick review’ format, which was developed for models which are merely updates to a previous model, and thus do not stand apart much. The quick review concentrates on the main differences between the ealier model and the one in question – in this case on the plug-in EVF, the accessory port and the firmware changes.

The major upgrade from the E-P1 is the high-res electronic viewfinder, which makes for the 3% difference in dpreview’s rating of 69% for the E-P2 compared to 66% for the E-P1.

But in fact all this was public knowledge already, so this quick review is kinda futile imho … but for completeness’ sake … here it is.
