Why aren't Olympus showing at Focus this year?

[ianpinion]

I've just been having a look at the Focus on Imaging website and there's no mention of Olympus having a stand at the show this year. Haven't they got any new models ready to be launched at it?

I'm sure I heard tha neither were Canon.

Not sure about if they will be there or new models but there is this, http://www.evolve.com.my/

Canon are listed as an exhibitor.

Apparently Olympus have not taken a stand in their own name? So I wonder who's stand they'll be on?

Maybe the cost of a stand went up by as much as the admission price, and they can't justify the expense?

I'm guessing their cameras will be one of the retailers stands instead, which should keep the exhibiting costs down for them!

I think the man on the left looks a lot like tom conti.
