Would you pay more for 1080p in the M5 that is at least as good as in 80D?

Yes, in a US$980 body, that it disappointing.

I don't think $500,- would have been realistic for a camera with the M5 specification.

It's direct competition is in the 599-799 euro range.

Olympus Em10 mk2

Panasonic GX80/G80

Fujifilm XT-10, X-E2S

Sony A6000

I think with dual pixel AF they could've even ask a bit more. Say the original EM-5 price point of 899,-

Right now it's priced at a ridiculous 1149,- euro's which puts it directly against the Sony A6300. And it's feature set just doesn't come close.
