I was checking out the Nikon forums earlier and was quite surprised at the numb6of issues there were, especially the D500... I knew about some of the oil on sensor issues related to other models, but thought the D500 was relatively problem free.

The number of posts on there has no relevance unless you have the total number of cameras sold. Along with other factors.

People with no problems with their cameras generally don't post that they have no problems.

That's very true... As a former Nikon user (and fan) I was still surprised... The D500 is a monster of a camera, I in no way was disparaging it or Nikon.

The truth is, ALL manufacturers have there issues, and certainly Olympus has their share. Panasonic, maybe less so...
