Uh, that's for Jan-Feb sales only. Hardly a data set that defines the
whole market.

Good news, but that doesn't say Sony has overtaken Nikon on an annual
basis. I have no dog in this fight; only factual information.

I shoot Oly now. So Olympus is the greatest thing since sliced bread.

:-P


No the greatest thing since then is the ring pull on cans.


So you're out of Canon now?


Yes, and have been for quite a while. I dumped all the FF gear and
moved to m4/3. I was shooting a Panny GX8 but when they introduced the
GH5 it was pretty clear that video is their priority. Also, the
Olympus E-M1 II had some features for still and action shooters I
really liked. I sold the GX8 and bought the E-M1 II. And it's a killer
cam.

And as much as I respect the addition of pull ring on cans, it's not
above sliced bread on my list. But close.

Not that you was the one that the question was addressed too... This has
been discussed ad nauseam and the conclusion has always been that the
mFT is really quaterframe vs fullframe and that those sensors are silly
small and that are clearly visible in output from qualified post
processing.

Not that it can't be handy with smaller sensors but do not expect high
end results below APS-C, halfframe sensors. If you want smaller than
that use your phone! Bigger is better.

Aye, same here. I used a D200 Nikon for many years.
And a 7200 for less. Now I use exclusively m4/3 (a em5MII and a Em1)
and quite frankly the m4/3 stuff beats the crap off everything else!


Honestly, I recently made a big print (3' x 4') for a friend, and it
looks stellar. I have no need for a larger and heavier system. Anyone
who claims that they can't get good images out of m4/3 probably
wouldn't be able to get good images out of a Nikon D810, either.

But hey, to each his/her own. If someone enjoys shooting a Leica M9 to
get snapshots of their kid's birthday party, have at it.

Small sensors are great for OTG sketches. Your phone is your pal

It's OK if you can stand the perspective distortion. Otherwise you
need a wider angle lense.
