I got a new one months ago in Europe at a better price, special deal, 5-year warranty. Plus a second-hand one earlier, at an even better price. I can now use my Zuiko 12-60 and 11-22, Sigma 30 1.4 and Sigma 150 2.8, etc., with a new-generation sensor. But I am still angry at Olympus, for two reasons: (1) the long wait; (2) the E-M1 lagging behind the miniature E-PM2 in ISO terms – with the PanaLeica 25 1.4 on both. Fact!
False.
The differences fall within the error tolerances for these cameras.
You could take 10 EPM2s and 10 E-M1s and some E-PM2s would have a better high ISO score on DXO (which seems to be all you care about) and some would not be as good as the E-M1s.
And then you have the DXO testing which is only accurate to a third of a stop anyway and even identical E-M1s and E-PM2s would score differently depending on who did the testing and the accuracy of the test equipment, how carefully it was set up, how much rounding of the numbers was carried out, whether there was a full moon….
What is just as relevant is the accuracy of your lenses (do you know if they really stop down to F4.0 when you set that on your camera ?) and the accuracy of your shutter.
The only way you’ll really know if your E-PM2 is better than your E-M1 is to carry out tests yourself with the same lens used on both cameras in the same lighting set up after you’ve tested the differences between the shutters on both cameras (spinning disc/marked fan).
I’m sure it will be worth it to get rid of all the misplaced anger you’ve had these last few years.
But it could also be that my E-PM2 is below the E-PM2 average and that my E-M1 is above the average E-M1, right …
