I guess you are living in Northern America ....

In Asia m4/3 is rather popular, in Europe less so

The Nothern americans tend to think big, only big cameras are considered to be capable by many photographers

Yes, that's very conservative and prejudiced, but it seems to be a popular believe

One more thing is that the best known players in the US and European camera market are Canon and Nikon, and not Olympus and Panasonic

The mirrorless offerings of Nikon and Canon are half-hearted, still only a niche product ... and not m4/3 anyway

used to be that way in Australia  but seeing more and more mirrorless and m43 on streets and on shelves
