If the new EM5 really is just 20MP then I will get an EM1ii for M43 duties.

I think it depends on Panasonic. As a video-centric company, they're bound to want to go 8k, which means getting to 44MP on a 4:3 sensor. The question is, whether they reserve 8k for the S line, or whether thy want to make the GH6 an 8K camera (I guess they might, there are a lot of GH videographers out there, and it's a user base worth hanging onto, given that there isn't an easy transition from G to S. If they want to do that, they'll stump up for Sony to make a new sensor, and Olympus could come across for the ride. Probably, it wouldn't happen in time for the E-M3 (as I think it will be) and 44MP sounds maybe unlikely. Possibly 6k at 25MP is more likely.
