What if when it eventually comes it's called the E-M3?

Or should that be OM-D E-M3? Or as some here would like to say, OM-D3. It seems that a lot of people can't get their heads around whether these cameras should be 'OM-D' or E-M'.

Or maybe E-M5X.

My dear friend Bob.......are you OK? Your camera gear all OK? Are you serious or do you wish to discuss the fact that its not sensor size but pixel size that makes the real difference....

I'm happy to discuss what you want. And if it's pixel size that makes the difference (it isn't, by the way, just to clear that up before you go on a diversion) then mFT really is stuffed, isn't it? Because for the same pixel count it has to have pixels a quarter of the size as FF. Luckily, what really makes the difference is how much light you capture, so if you set up your mFT camera to capture the same light energy as a FF cameras, there won't be a difference.

That said...lets keep it simple and call it the Best Mirrorless Camera (A++) on the market and we will all be HAPPY.

The new Sony A7RIII looks pretty impressive. It can do 26MP in APS-C crop mode. And it still has bigger pixels than an EMIX.

At $3500 this has to be a masterpiece, wonder what will happen to the EM1X price......gues profitability will have to go down a little.......was it planned

All said, I am honored with you taking the time to reply to my humble Oly fan boys chat......

Fan boys are fun.

Have fun friend, you the best....

Maybe using your fan boy expertise, you could tell us, should we be saying E-M5 or OM-D? It's an important question.

People identify with the E-M5 within the OM-D family......commonsense, right?
