Re: Panasonic G2 or Olympus E-PL8 for tropical landscapes?

Well, to say ‘the output from the G2 would not be very appealing ‘ is a strange comment. Older equipment can produce excellent output. I had a G2 for many years and it is still one of the nicest camera’s to hold and use that I have owned. The EVF may not have the resolution of the newer models but it is there when needed. The images produced from it are excellent, though perhaps not if you pixel peep and crop heavily. I recorded many memorable trips with mine. The 16 mpx sensor on the e-pl5 and 6 is very good undoubtedly however the industry seems to be moving to 20mpx now . Where will it end?
