Gear really is a meme

I've spent about 2 years shooting with a beat up canon 70d I got on craigslist and I'm ready to drop some money on a new camera. I've narrowed my choices down to these two because of the following:

- Rugged and actually weather sealed
- I like the build quality, feel and color rendering of the lenses (HD pentax D-FAs and the OM pro f/2.8s)
- Comfortably in my budget used (with lenses)

I'm leaning more towards the OM because I will be backpacking a lot and the weight savings are attractive (especially with telephoto), however I'm willing to put up with the weight if the pentax will have outstandingly better image quality.

My use-case will be travel with a bit of wildlife photography, I will shoot everything in RAW and edit, and all of my photos will be shared online or printed to a max of 11x17". I also never carry a tripod/monopod.

Some of my pros for each system:
OM-1
>lightweight and compact
>m43 wider DOF
>more variety of modern glass
>cheaper telephoto options

K-1ii
>higher resolution (can crop for wildlife)
>better dynamic range and color depth
>better in low light?

I'm sure everyone will tell me to go full frame and go to the gym but I was hoping to get some additional perspective, ideally from someone who has owned both FF and modern m43.

Some additional points:
-I know they are both dead systems
-No I will not get a canon/nikon/sony

Thanks for your time

It's truly over, isn't it?

How come we don't have a /p/ magazine/photobook or something? Every month we could give a theme and maybe people vote on what gets in, then we can publish it as a pdf for all /p/ users
I've yet to properly work out the logistics but that's what this thread is for

So I bought this and am too scared on bringing this with me on my travels due to the cost. I want to go to a rally even and fear dust and stone with fuck up my CPL.

actually probably the best photo i’ve taken. in hawaii, on maui

just arrived in hawaii, this shit is beautiful AF

>make a thread about how great m43 is in low light
>banned from all boards
First off why not ban me from just /p/, second why the fuck am I banned for proving how a format so often bullied is actually great?

For anyone that needs to be told that YES M43 cameras can do amazing shots in the dark

Hey anons,
I got a Canon R50 (mirrorless, interchangeable 18-45mm lens) and I’m wondering what you’d recommend adding to make the setup more versatile. Also, if you have any useful settings tips or tricks to get the most out of it, I’d really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.
