Fascinating stuff! Thanks for sharing. I'm very surprised at the AF speed differences in low light. It almost makes me want to reconsider a GX7, but reading your impressions also reminded me of why I decided against one in the first place: the sequential EVF's rainbow effects would give me headaches (I'm very sensitive to rainbow effect) and IBIS doesn't work for video. Too bad--I'd love to have more confident AF in low light, but that rainbow effect is a killer for me.

Thank you!

Thankfully I rarely notice the rainbow effect. My bigger issue is with the size of the EVF. I do get used to it and stop noticing it... until I look at the VF-4 viewfinder on my Pen which is even larger than E-M1's.
