I have always been impressed how well it handles higher iso and low light. Did you see the 800 iso shot I posted above? I think it is impressive noise wise for straight from the camera 800 iso.

Yes, I have checked your concert pictures and even SOOC the images look clean.  I think that it is in this kind of event where it shines the most. Because big dslr or even other normal sized mirrorless are forbidden, you can get telephoto due to good iso perf and good stab.

It is also the benefit of having a back side illuminated sensor and a leaf shutter.

Man, I will pay good money if Olympus decide to create a Stylus 2 with improved fonctionnalities (High res mode, pro capture etc..) and an improved sensor perf, but I doubt that they will do it.

This camera is one of its kind, and I cannot find another model with this specs, I mean compact, with good controls, evf and telephoto reach.

Also with improved software, this kind of old gems get a second life, for instance, you can cranck up the iso and cleanup the image with Dxo or Topaz to get quality close to bigger sensors.
