Pocket-lint can reveal that Olympus will launch their new digital SLR at midnight tonight.

The E-1 successor, that Olympus are describing as their new flagship product, will be finally unveiled after months of speculation.

Nothing has been revealed by Olympus who are being particularly tight-lipped about the new offering.

It's though it might be a 10-megapixel camera with weatherproofing, dust-reduction, live preview with a swiveling LCD screen and image stabilisation.

In Korea Olympus has recently shown their latest DSLR, the E-3, to a select range of journalists who were not allowed to write about the product.

Obviously the assumption is that this is what we be revealed tonight at midnight - but tune back in later to find out more.

Pocket-lint will bring you the news as soon as we have it...
