Re: Worth upgrading e-pm2 for low light

I used the E-PM2 a lot. I upgraded to newer and newer m43 cameras. I have to say I can't see any significat advantage for high ISO's. There are diferences, but too small to make a difference. I only shoot raw though, I don't know about jpeg.

However, the IBIS in the E-PM2 was worse than useless. After seeing it actually ruin lots of my photos, I ended up turning it off completely. When I upgraded to the E-PL7, that camera 3-axis IBIS was amazingly good, and that made a huge diference shooting in low light.

So yes, upgrading ca make a huge difference but not because of the sensor.
