Full frame is all the rage, in this world where bigger is better. Micro Four Thirds was the first mirrorless system, and now every camera player out there has moved to mirrorless, including full frame systems. Should Olympus or OM Digital Solutions make full frame mirrorless cameras instead of just exclusively staying with Micro Four Thirds? Even Panasonic has their own full frame system (L-Alliance with Sigma and Leica). Come join in the conversation!
