It's now in stock in Japan: Amazon.co.jp OLYMPUS OM-D E-M5P. The 14-42mm adapter is also in stock: PPO-EP01.
Comes in around US$1000 + US$368 at exchange current rates.

This housing is now in the US at $959.00 plus $399.00 for the PPO-EP01 which is a new standard flat port. On the Reef Photo site and others.

It was added to the Oly pricelist, yes. It is not shipping, and not available in the US as of now. Oly doesn't have any other info than sometime in September. If I was to guess, mid-to-late Sept., as they don't have any incoming shipment news.

so if I want to upgrade my E-PL3 I better get the Nauticam housing?
I got the Oly housing for my E-PL3 & it works well. But as & when I upgrade to the OM-D I am going for the Nauticam one. The price difference between the two housings has halved & the Nauticam is clearly the better housing.

I'm thinking about upgrading my SP-560 to an E-M5 and housing. I can buy the camera with the 14-42 lens or the 12-50 lens. I've never had to deal with ports and rings and all that. Does anyone know if the 12-50 works in the PPO-EP01 port?
Thanks,
Jeff
