OTOH, someone leaked some pics a couple weeks back of a sleek m4/3 compact with a pancake lens. It caused a lot of initial excitement until someone translated from the Japanese site that it's an artist rendition. HOWEVER, the said artist pegged the 12MP sensor, makes me wonder indeed how much it is artist rendition or how much is real leak. All shall be known soon though.
