I'm really surprise but face to face, in DPReview 'Image quality', the Pen-F has better sharpness and better contrast than the EM1 MKII.

At 100 or 3200 iso, in raw or jpeg, ...

So I decide to compare to other Olympus (EM10, EM5, EP5, ...), and everytime the Pen-F gives the best image quality.

Any explanation ?

Yes there is with respect to the E-M1MkII. All DPR images are processed using a beta version of Adobe Camera Raw.

That is true and certainly not my experience.

I have bothe the E-M1 II and the Pen F and the E-M1 II wins, hands down. If Olympus offered me a chance to swap the sensor and firmware engine from the E-M1 II into my Pen F,  I would gladly pay the upgrade price.

That said, the Pen F has better IQ than the E-M1 version I and the E-M5 II, both of which I also owned,
