The historic company is preparing to leave from the market of consumer products in cameras.
ΗOlympus definitely belongs among the most historical companies related to the construction of cameras, having erased a course of decades (appeared in the spotlight in the 1930s).
In fact, Olympus contributed maximum and in its establishment mirrorless design, which came to fill the gap between one DSLR and one compact camera. However, a good name is not always able to keep you in the foam forever, which is why the historic company is preparing to leave from the market of consumer products in cameras.
As it became known, this business unit is expected to be sold to Japan Industrial Partners, which is known from the VAIO revival that took place back in 2014. The truth is that in recent years, Olympus in the field of cameras was in downturn, despite the efforts made by those in charge to keep her alive.
Η Jip is expected to continue to sell cameras using all the technology and know-how of Olympus, however we do not know if the name of the well-known brand will be maintained. Olympus is not only active in cameras, but also has a large presence in medical field and in other types of areas and applications related to the B2B space.
