This link showed up in my mailbox today, Adorama's review of the OMD EM-1: http://www.adorama.com/ALC/BlogArticle.aspx?googleid=0014299&alias=Olympus-OM-D-E-M1-Hands-On&utm_source=RSYS&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=Email090913OlympusNPA&j=Email090913OlympusNPA
They, of course, say little if anything bad about it. If I were going u4/3, I would get the latest sensor available. My guess is that with a sensor several years newer than the K-5, the IQ will approach that of the K-5. With half the sensor area, the sensors will be one or two "Moore's cycles" behind what can be done on APS. As I mentioned earlier, we seem to be in the middle of camera announcement season, so if you can hold off buying something new for a couple of months, you'll probably get a lot more benefit than waiting a couple of months if it were June. When new models come out, you have your choice of better performance, or good deals on the last generation. Alternatvely, if u4/3 looks like the way you want to go, you can pick up a cheap used "second body" now. One that is a couple generations old, and which will do fine in bright light (under ISO 800), then in six months or so start looking at the new OMD EM1, or whatever. -- Larry Colen l...@red4est.com http://red4est.com/lrc -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
