The likely most “exotic” of all mirrorless and interchangeable lens cameras just got DxOamrked (Click here). And the sensor performance is actually surprising! The Q10 matches the quality of the 12 Megapixel Micro Four Thirds cameras! That0s a huge surprise considering the big sensor size difference. Chapeau Pentax! The once again proved that they are capable of squeezing out all the quality they can from their (Sony) sensors.
P.S.: Good for MFT that their latest generation sensors marked a huge leap forward. Otherwise this would be very embarrassing for them 🙂

these odd proclamations seem to dismiss low light perf or underweight it … i like the pentax concept but wish they went with a 11.7 sensor at least ….dxo .., i still dont get you , and ive been tryin for yrs
what about using a 200 2.8 canon fd on this camera with a custom adapter?
[they are beyond easy to make}…. do the math… a 5,6 crop what a safari lens!!!
all you need is a bodycap ,some shims ,and some crazy glue [or epoxy]
[diy call here ] ive made several successful custom jobs for my ep1 before a single adapter was a gleam in a chinese startups eyes ,…. 🙂
my 50 mm f 2 nikon h on an oly ep1 was the first in north america with a modified body cap, some automotive gaskets, cyanoacrylate and a jury rigged lock pin device
wheres someone creative
that is what im waiting to see
The GF5 has the same sensor as the original GF1… that alone is shameful.
… Sincerily it is this kind of BS the reason I don’t trust any of the stuff DXO mark posts…
And I will leave here a lovely meme in Icanhazcheezburguer for them:

DXO..is that the same kind of sauce the put in my favortie Sechuan noodle dish?
Can we trust DXO Mark,.now ?
or probably,.we have to accept this result as this will slap,.panasonic to make a serious camera
Yes, because the Q does better than people think. That includes the Q10.
Keep in mind the ISO score. Don’t go by the “total score.” The headline is misleading, imho. That said, the Q/Q10 do better than people think.
Agree, “ISO” score is much worse on the Q10 and huge differences there is not reflected in the total score. IMO we can trust DxO’s measurements, maybe more than any other test site, but the interpretation of the results (particulary the numeric scores) just don’t match the differences in IQ the user will see between many cameras.
ISO score says it all… Their overall score is something you should skip when reading the results.
Its a sad day on earth when so many noobs are arguing over this thing called dxo.
sure, lets ignore the stop and a half of worse noise performance
