Re: Sequential EVF "tearing" effect - reality or myth?

18 months ago, while I was trying to decide which camera to buy between the GX7 and the E-M10, I had the opportunity to test both at "Le Salon de la photo" in Paris (kind of Photokina, only much smaller. ).

Under the very bright and artificial light of the place, the GX7 EVF was truly awful. You got it all, rainbows, flickers, everything. The E-M10 was a lot better (no rainbows, a bit of flickering only at specific angles... ).

That closed the deal for me, I bought an E-M10 a week later and I've been happy with my choice since... (Although to be fair, I would probably have been happy with a GX7 too... except for the EVF under those circumstances, it was and still is a very nice camera).
