Really?



EM5 = 3200 ISO

Yep, a 36MP camera vs a 16MP one....

Low-Light ISO dxo test:

2293 ISO for 5D mark III

OMD -> 826 ISO

again, 24mp vs 16mp..........

If smaller sensor were better, we would be using our cell phones, not m43.

does that mean that we should go large format? No. It means we should find the "best" compromise. That's why I'm looking at m43.

nobody should deny the utility of more pixels when theyre needed, but it has to be remembered that you are carrying a camera burdened by higher diffraction (please DO NOT try that 2 stops up rule for diffraction) and a camera more sensitive to shake. In the end you dont need numbers, you need eyes

no NR, no BS and mess, just as it displays

resize is an inefficient way of decreasing noise,
