Dave, why are you complaining about a camera you will never ever buy? It's like I constantly would complain about Canon...

Jared Polin:
  1. he admits it's the first µ 4/3 he's shooting with
  2. he says right in the beginning it's a pre-production firmware
  3. no idea, what was going on in the rest of the video - I also will not buy into µ 4/3, so why wasting time to complain about obvious shortcomings of a small sensor and instead look at the other real interesting features ?
  4. I don't know if it was Jared or another reviewer who said since the camera has a rather good and snappy AF, he has more time to check for composition rather than for AF points.
  5. When did you shoot with any EVF?
You say for yourself you're fighting against noise with an APS-C sensor, which is targeted at shooting with high ISO - so, even your machine struggles - all will have limits, µ 4/3 slightly earlier. Where's the news in that?

I don't think Olympus tries to pull FF shooters on their side, most of their customers already abandoned the FF boat at times when DSLRs were modern. But I do think Olympus wants to offer their customers a high end camera. And by high-end I mean within the bounds of µ 4/3, not for other systems. It DOES have some very advanced tech in it and it also does have very solid sealing which I consider as "weatherproof" = more than just some rubber gaskets. It does have a fully articulated LCD - which other high-end camera offers that?

What I find interesting: most posters in this thread have no idea about µ 4/3, me included. And the only one - Klaus - qualifies the body as "mad form factor". If that's so, then what is a D4, D5? What's the mad part in a body made for European grown-up adult hands instead of the hands of kids or Japanese? A weight (and price and size) comparison can be made with other high-end pro bodies with integrated vertical grip and huge battery - everything else is just stupid.

A agree on the noisy pictures - but if one wants to travel with not much luggage and gear, the Olympus soon gets rather interesting if big prints are not in your commission list. I don't need plane, trains or motorcycle/-car AF recognition, but for those who do, it's the only camera offering it.

What I like of this approach is, Olympus dared to come with new ideas (and shitty LCD/EVF, alright), set some ridiculously high standards in electronic shutter and maxed fps. I think it's hard to navigate to all this features, I also think one needs to study the manual for extended time. I think, I'll get the same resolution quality with some Sigma lenses or the 50/1.8 S - but I also think, a tripod would be necessary to get close to it. The Olympus doesn't need tripods that much. Again something for travelling light. Imagine if you could take shots with ¼ second, handheld...
