Canon EOS R/RP question from an Olympus user

Hi to all,

So as everybody and their mother knows, Olympus is going down. As an EM1X user, I am exploring other cameras systems to which to migrate to. I used to own Nikon gear about 7 years ago but sold it all for the compact Olympus system.

I have been looking at the current mainstream big boys of full frame (Canon R, Nikon Z6, Sony A7III and Panasonic S1).

After studying several thousand images it is clear that the Panasonic and the Canon produce the best colors... ESPECIALLY THE CANON.

Now here is my question for you folk:

On paper, the Canon R as a camera is not as technically capable in a number of areas as these competitors (Not the best sensor for noise, not the highest DR, Flash sync speed of only 1/200, no IBIS, reviewers complain about the R's touch-sensitive bar, etc).. Is giving up all these advantages from other systems worth it just to get Canon Colors??

The Panasonic S1 has all these features and more, so is it just the Canon colors that keep photographers coming back to Canon?

Thank you for any replies.
