I don't know when I'll buy a DSLR, though I'm sure that day will come, probably
sooner than later. But I won't buy one that Tamron isn't making lenses to fit.
Third-party lenses are no guarantee of success, but a lack of them in the
marketplace doesn't inspire great confidence.
I don't see any for Olympus DSLRs here:
