You do not see more M4/3 cameras because the public is resistant to change and the cell phone is now acting as a P&S. In the "good old days" when 35mm was in the early stages, there was great reluctance to move to a smaller piece of film. The common sizes were 2 1/4 x 2 1/4, 2 1/4 x 3 and 4 x 5. Nobody wanted a tiny 35mm (stolen from the movies) piece of film because the image was thought to be much poorer. In truth, all images were on the poor side unless the camera had a very good lens. Now we have a small sensor and the objection is the same.

How can a tiny M4/3 sensor possibly produce quality??? Well, we know that it does. Now, either the rest of the world will catch on,

I agree

or cell phones will take over and rule the earth.

The cell phones are now ruling the world and us enthusiasts are the minority. We can add all the P&S, FF, APS-C and M4/3
