Well, the Oly Pic is here for example:
http://www.dpreview.com/news/0303/pma2003/olympus/esysgroup.jpg
The lenses were shown around a lot in the past, but right in front og
the body, that round "thingi" looks suspiciously like a mount adaptor.
You wouldn't AF with OM Zuikos, but beeing able to mount "old" glass on
that body sure would make it the most interesting D-SLR for me......
Let's all hope and pray it will be manufactured (already picking the
brains of my Oly Contact here in Germany....)
bests,

I'm digging through the rat-fighting of debates on dpreview.com about
the 4/3rds.. Someone said it was the exact mount as the original OM?
Can someone verify this?
No, it isn't.
There was one photo that was on the Olympus website that showed what looked
like a 4/3rds to OM adaptor. This caused a great deal of speculation, then
Olympus pulled the photo off the website.
I fear we may have to add that item to the long list of lusted-after prototypes
that never made it to market...
