The firmware update will give their latest Micro Four Third cameras greater compatibility with Olympus’ new electronic zoom lenses.

According to Olympus:

Today Olympus announces the release of new firmware for the E-P3, E-PL3 and E-PM1 that more accurately displays the focal length data for electric zoom lenses shown in playback, EXIF data, and in the monitor while shooting.

Owners of the said PEN cameras can get the firmware v1.2 through the Olympus camera software or by downloading first the Digital Camera Updater.
