Why are even the X-E1 JPEGs inferior, markedly, to these three other cameras. One is even just a µ4/3 sensor but it is noticeably sharper!

I really mean that it is much more detailed, primarily, in the green. The perceived "sharpness" is probably a result of the extra detail shown.

How can the OM-5 with a much smaller sensor be so much better?

How can the dpreview test chart show such amazing results in terms of black and white resolution, but miss out in colour, in green in particular, in the studio shots?

What would be beneficial is if someone with an X-E1 would load the studio RAW at 200ISO and do an in-camera RAW to JPEG conversion. Just copy it into the working folder ifor the camera (on the SD card) and then open it via the Play button.

I would like to see one with default settings, and one or more with increased sharpness via the conversion menu. Surely this will produce better results?

Dpreview used a non m43 lens on the OMD E-m5 so il looks better.
