There is a segmant of the market that still believes that bigger is better irrespective of sensor size. People that have large hands or that are used to the ergonomics of a chunky design that is...

I am a big fan of Oly and really admire them for flying the flag of M4/3 and believe that the M4/3 is the best compromise between camera/lens size and IQ but for innovation you just can't beat Sony.

Here we go again comparing apples with oranges.

As soon as you say anything with the word 'pro' in it pro camera owners get all defensive. Well, Olympus 4/2 lenses are PRO quality and here is the...

I bet Ricoh would have liked there GXR to work like this.

If the optics in the QX100 are as good as the RX100 then I am interested and hopefully the price will come down.

Overall though...

Yeah, also,how can Olympus explain the price difference between the E-P5 and the E-PL5?

Perhaps marketing or is the issue. The fact that you can buy an E-PM2 for well under $500 which has the same great sensor as the E-M5 makes it an absolute bargain - to people who know about it....
