As already evidenced, you saw more noisiness where there is actually less. A simple case of deviant perception, presumably due to wishful thinking/confirmation bias, nothing else.

Likewise on your part ....... Touche .

By no means. Unlike yours, my perceptions are in complete agreement with the objective facts.

As I said, I noticed a Slight drop in high ISO performance moving from EM10 to EM1 and noticed the improvement from EM1 to EM5-II . my original "am I seeing things" was that it looked better than I remember from the EM10 - whatever, it`s better than the EM1 even if by a margin.

I know you said that (based on incomparable evidence and memory recall, which leaves a lot of leeway for wishful thinking). But my comments about your deviant perceptions refer to what you said here about the DPR studio scene samples I linked to. When faced with directly comparable evidence, your report about your perceptions turned out to be out of line with the objective facts.
