Re: Canon 100D (SL1) autofocus compared to Olympus OM-D M10/M5

I have both the SL1 and the EM10.1 and it is not even close, at least not with the kit lenses (Oly 14-42 vs any kit STM lens from Canon).  The Canon focus is nearly instant in almost any light I shoot in.  The Olympus searches and hunts and is very slow.  I was very disappointed in the EM10.1 with the kit lens, but I'm very happy with the (more expensive) EM1.1 with 12-40 Pro.
