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

SO you do believe that the EM5-II is better at high ISOs than the EM1 then ......... Gotcha

No. Your perceptions betray you yet again. I consistently said the opposite based on the objective fact that the E-M1 has better SNR in the shadows than the E-M5.2. As I additionally pointed out, shadow noise is what primarily bothers most people (as evidenced by the poll I conducted about the matter) and SNR in the shadows is better indexed by DR than by the DxO "low-light score". And with regard to DR, the E-M1 is slightly ahead of the E-M5.2 (and other current Olys) across the entire ISO range, as illustrated by the DPR studio scene crops I linked to.
