IMO, the GX1 is one of the nicer rangefinder type bodies in m43.  It has a wonderfully solid feel, a deep grip (probably the best of any rangefinder-style camera in m43), robust metal buttons, a...

So you can't get quality 8x10 prints from a 12 mp 1/1.7" compact? You...

Posts do vanish from time to time.   I've made long, detailed posts with careful links, embedded images and references.  When I click "Post" it just vanishes.  Poof.     This vanishing post had...

The X20 images look a bit softer compared to the MX-1 in both JPEG and RAW. The MX-1 also has extremely fine grain structure at higher ISO vs X20.

But subtle differences viewed at 100% are...

Actually I would disagree that m43 and APS-C mirrorless have obsoleted the high end compact as the huge popularity of the RX100 or S100 demonstrates. If you shoot at or around base ISO as most...

Dude, nobody asked you. My comment above receive way more upvotes than any of your comments here, so stfu.

No, you are over analyzing it too much. Even in the digital era, to say that there is no such thing as a professional photographer today is not accurate at all.

If anything you have more...

Devlin got upset because I had the nerve to compare the AF performance of two popular MILCs. Go figure.

One person? That's your "long series of complaints" as you say above.

I'm glad that you are encouraging me to post. I feel so much better.

As far as credibility, since I've used almost every m43 camera made since the GF1, I can assure you that I can discuss these...

You'll notice that my parent post got quite a few upvotes so obviously not everybody is as sensitive as you.

But I've been a m43 user since almost the beginning of the m43 consortium and have way...

Was only making a minor point about AF performance in bright light vs low light. If I have an EPL5 and V1, a comparison seemed appropriate. I did not know that mentioning Nikon 1 was a faux pas,...

Yes Olympus likes to crank up sharpness and contrast for consumer friendly JPEGs.

RAW shows a very different story however as the woman on the Lira Note, the fur, Mickey show a fairly dramatic...

I see that my favorite stalker ET2 has decided to contribute nothing as usual but personal attacks.

I've been a m43 user for years so I'm well within my right to contribute to the discussion in...

Not sure the EPM2 is "better in a lot of ways". In some ways, perhaps. High ISO performance may be close, but overall the RAW Studio Scene does show the Ricoh GR and Coolpix A producing a sharper...
