One more note to the folks (especially OG-1 and OP-Z owners) griping about prices:
When a company releases updated products that effectively make their predecessors obsolete around the same price point, the resale value of what you’re holding is instantly shot to hell — when a company, like TE, releases products that absolutely overpower their predecessors but hardly make them obsolete as a matter of course, they’re also protecting the price point of machines like OP-Z far more than if they released something even within a few hundred bucks of the classic (like $999).
Now, people flooding the market with their used OP-Z’s (if they do) would bring down the price for sure, but in general I’d imagine this release will do more good for OP-Z sales and resales than harm. (And, btw, there’s no stopping TE from still releasing a “field-spec” OP-Z body successor at around $899/$999 if they believed it wouldn’t cannibalize sales of the XY — there’s clearly a wide open lane in the middle of their spectrum, and a large enough market at each step up in price (so far at least).
