They dropped the 6 when the 6MF came out, though the former is better IMHO.
Now the 6MF is supposedly being dropped (not confirmed yet) and the 7 is
getting some very minor upgrades and a new 50mm lens w/separate
viewfinder...pity how they are thoroughly screwing up what was originally a
great RF system.

But a $1200 megapixel Oly 620L will depreciate even faster and should be
make a good doorstop in a decade.
