My Lenovo thinkpad achieved almost the same 20 years ago. I used it for more than 10 years, and then donated it to one of my employees.
rsf3127: This better be a stellar performer because it is not that small. Minolta m-rokkor 40mm f/2 is decades old and is much smaller and a very good lens. https://casualphotophile.com/2016/07/22/minolta-m-rokkor-40mm-f2-lens-review/
@jimmy If you put both lenses side by side, you can figure out that this must be the biggest AF-motor size to lens size ratio ever ...

This camera and the two kit lens combo looks appealing for a variety of uses. But I got used to my M43 setup and can't conceive going back to FF for traveling. It is just too cumbersome since I do a lot of hiking. And the CDAF-only doesn't appeal to me either.
A bit heavy to be mounted on my selfie stick. Pass.
With this price tag, it better be UNlimited in its quality.
If travel photography is your thing, this lens paired to one of the best cameras from Olympus or even Panasonic is really hard to beat.
But people say that M43 is dead ...
Both the kit lens 40-150mm and the pro 2.8/f are pretty good. Both are plenty sharp. the former is very light and inexpensive and the latter is a workhorse and can be used with teleconverters. Don't know who would buy this intermediate model.
DPreview foruns and comments sections are much more toxic than instagram or Facebook or whatever else. Here, the bullying mode is always hard. Ok, maybe Twitter is a close second.
rsf3127: IMO 20mm is the sweet spot FL for a walkaround lens in MFT. Very good news from Olympus (or whatever they call it now).
Understandably so.

I have thought of owning a GR but no VF, no articulating screen and no possibility to attatch a longer lens for the occasional tighter shot stopped me. I can't deny that it's a compelling choice for those who are willing to cope with the drawbacks, though.

KAAMBIC: Good to see. With Sony planning a stacked sensor, im glad to see more MFT development rather than it dying off, it's such a good system. Still got my EM1-II and G9, still rooting for MFT to do well.
The stacked sensor will be expensive in the first models but that will change as it happens to every piece of electronics. I am pretty satisfied with the current generation of m43 cameras but a stacked sensor won't hurt (maybe my wallet will be lighter for a while).
Zeiss sells some nice moistened tissues. I've been using them for years.
Nikon as good as Olympus @ low ISOs. One stop better noise performance from 1600 onwards. Very nice skin tones for both.
Sony and Fuji retain the green tint even if it has improved a bit when compared to A6000 and its derivatives. Still very annoying if you push shadows too much.
DR can't be acessed by my eyes with this test.
You can have either nice bokeh OR good sunstars. Both are physically excludent.
zakk9: While China's treatment of minorities can and should be criticised, I still haven't seen any reliable evidence that the Uygurs in Xinjiang are treated any better or worse than other ethnic minorities in China. It's fair also to remind remind oneself that Kodak is based in a country that has eridicated most of its own indigenous population. Although most of that happened a while back, it's something to remember when criticising others for similar behaviour.
I can't find a word that would pass moderation to qualify the act of comparing something that happened more than 400 years ago to genocide that is happening right now. it is just mind boggling. For God's sake.
Weird. It seems that Sony doesn't agree with those blokes @dpreview foruns who preach that M4/3 is dead.
My Huawei has that feature with a 5x optical zoom since 2018
