If you look at that graph you wonder how Olympus and Panasonic can still make money on cameras. It’s really a depressing situation for the camera market! I guess what keeps both companies alive is that they have other bigger and healthy businesses. I am wondering how long more “photographic dependent” companies like Nikon will survive this.

Scott: “Got to hold an E-M1 ll yesterday at a public presentation. No card allowed, so no files to send, and couldn’t guess quality by looking at the screen. ++Of interest to wedding/event/wildlife photographers: Definitely possible to shoot silent at up to 6400 ISO, probably faster but did not test.++ No way to test scientifically, but C focus with 25 1.2 was really good. This was iffy in M-1 in anything except bright light. Spot metering does follow the focus point, an big win. Also focus points seem smaller, which would indicate a smaller spot meter. Of interest to macro shooters, specs on OLY website say silent shutter goes down to 60 seconds, so no longer necessary to keep raising ISO when image stacking in low light. One person who had seen 6400 ISO files on the back of a camera said they looked “great, way better than M-1”. ??? Hard to say.“
