I see many EM5 III posts going up and I find it interesting. EVERYBODY knows what we talking about wether its an OMD or a PEN, a EPL.... or an EM....

I fail to see the benefit of well-branded vaporware. How much revenue do they get from an EM5iii post?

I'll probably buy one, but it's been so dang long, I've grown accustomed to waiting, so I won't be lined up to pay top $ on day 1.

Famous words......"If you not happy leave"......

Not an excellent sentiment to be channeling, especially when it's just about a camera.

blimey is he the Tommy Robinson of the forum or something...soap on a rope

Tommi Robinson?

Tom Robinson? Who is Tommi/Tommy Robinson?

British far right white supremacist activist.

Oh, what a charming fellow. Does he use M43? He seems to like "offbeat" choices.

Not that I know of. I think Gregg was making a comment on the use of the "if you're not happy, go back where you came from" trope, which has recently had a spin around American governmental circles, and I was taking a cheap shot at the seeming fondness of the far right for the name "Tommy", even if spelled with an 'i'.

I think I prefer "Tom" who sings that catchy little "Sing if your glad to be M43" rather than that rather gross Tommy who will beat you up if he sees you with a Nikon or Canon FF.

It's much the same driver, I guess, an over inflated sense of tribalism. It's just a bit more pathetic (though less socially nasty) when it's applied to which is the camera brand that's been most successful at pulling the wool over your eyes.
