Sequential EVF "tearing" effect - reality or myth?

It really bothered me. And I can't even say it was because of the rainbow tearing. It just was too damn unpleasant while I was (am) used to the gorgeous LVF2s on my GX1s.

The EVF of GX7 being small is a different story, and here there is no argument: it is small.

It is small but quite workable.  The GM5 evf is even smaller but also quite workable.

Therefore all cameras are some sort of compromise.  I am willing to compromise evf size for a smaller camera body form factor.  I have no problem with framing and focusing even on the GM5 evf.

If there were no camera with a larger evf then I could see some sense in this argument.  But there is no sense in wishing every camera to have a large gorgeous evf if a smaller, less gorgeous evf provided a good enough result for most.  This amounts to designing every small faunctional camera around a fixed size/capability evf unit.  If a larger evf is desired then users have to make a body size concession to get it.

I see no problem in this but I do see a problem in being forced to accept a larger camera form factor than I would necessarily want just because some set their sights on a large luscious evf as the only way to travel.  The GX8 fills the bill, let it rest at that.

But again, that as well might have been the result of tiny size & diopter limitation.

And that is a valid quantifiable complain.

The question was about the rainbow effect of the field-sequential EVFs, and you seem to fall into the group who are not bothered by it.
