The E-M5 jpeg quality is better than the GX1 and as good ad the NEX-5n!

Our Spanish friends from Quesabese (Click here) tested the E-M5 image quality and wanted to know if the “mysterious” [shoplink 29074]E-M5 sensor[/shoplink] performs as good or better than the [shoplink 26836]Panasonic GX1[/shoplink]. Their test shows that the E-M5 not only beats the GX1 but also is damn close to the [shoplink 26379]NEX-5n (Sony’s bestseller cam)[/shoplink]! I really don’t know who made that E-M5 sensor but one thing is sure, the E-M5 really catched up with the best APSC sensor. And I am really happy for Olympus! But I think the GX1 image quality in RAW will almost catch up with the E-M5. Panasonic always had been a little behind Olympus in terms of Jpeg rendering.
