I went from an E-P3 to an EM5II and the upgrade was very significant in nearly every front (except colors, I prefer the older sensor/image processing in this respect). It felt like I had changed ...

They have no plans to go full frame, save for designing lens patents to sell to other manufacturers.

I look forward to the unavoidable match-up against other 24mm lenses, what-we-expected-what-we-got type of article, the exhaustive Rishi test were he will show the lens is 1/8 of a stop slower than...

Either an OMD (Em10 mark II or III is fine). A Pen F Or one of the smaller, older E-PL Pen cameras (E-PL5 or E-PL7 for example) with the possibility to attach an external EVF. All would work but an ...

I didn't imply such a m43 camera existed, but the OP did ask for a reason, any reason, so I was just thinking of whatever feature on individual m43 cameras that you can not find on the EM5II. ...

- You want something tiny - You want something bigger, with a strong grip - You want more than 16MP - you prefer a tilty screen over a fully swivel screen - You want 4K/really advanced video features ...

Never had any reliability issue with a Olympus product. Ever. The closest was the early firmware of the EM5II was a bit buggy, and is fine since the update. No complaints. To be fair, the only ...

But the point is the performance is lacking vs the "70's tech". A sentiment repeated by others in this thread. Why not DFD with PDAF, like the EM1 has both contrast detect with PDAF? When DFD has ...

The tech works, it's a better than most contrast-detect systems out there. But it still lags behind some of the most rudimentary PDAF systems. AF is the most consistent criticism on the GH5, ...

Personally, I would have liked a FF Olympus system, probably over any of the other camera manufacturers out there But... I don't believe Olympus has to resources to really go toe-to-toe with big ...

Take it or leave it. :)

Yes, most definitely. It's one of the best deals in m43. However, if you are willing to sacrifice a bit of IQ and willing to pay some more (get it used or something), it makes more sense to just ...

Or whichever the successor to the Z6 will be called, when most first-gen problems are ironed out. I like what I see with Z6/Z7. Only AF seems a bit iffy, but the rest like weather sealing, video, ...

Between 0 and 2000 dollars, there's a lot of wiggle room. But by 2000 bucks, you start competing directly with current, entry-level FF cameras. For many people, at this price range, they'd rather ...

I don't like Panasonic menus and JPEG output and some of the technical limitations of the camera but I put up with all of it because you can have a powerful little camera with good RAW output if ...

ISO 8000 in broad daylight. Oh my. Most definitely take more control of your camera!

Hypotheticals, man, hypotheticals. you know, what if... It's not about one manufacturer leaving, it's about taking a m43 strenght, two manufacturers, and removing it and asking if the system would ...

Imagine a parallel universe where only one manufacturer dominates m43, dismissing the various duplicate lenses, essentially it's half of what m43 is today with a single manufacturer-slant to the ...

It seemed like the X-T2 was still relatively current so this upgrade came as a surprise for me. On paper, nothing extraordinary different, but highly competitive still. missing IBIS is shame. Not ...

I didn't choose m43 per se, I chose 43 DSLR's first. Back in 2009, I found the E620 to be a better proposition than the E-P1. I also liked the lenses better (there was practically nothing on m43). ...
