>>3569472>You're saying hand held hig res, Dude, "high res mode" is a meme. Reviewers don't take it seriously even on Sony cameras because it requires a perfectly still scene and still delivers lower IQ then a sensor with the same MP. No one uses it, no one cares.
>live nd, That's admittedly cool.
>and computational auto focus is nothing? Tony is all about "muh ai subject tracking fast AF." If Olympus could compete here he would have been bragging about it. And before you claim "muh sony shill" they weren't happy at all about Olympus' financials and both said they liked Olympus as a company and what they had done with their cameras. They shoot pretty straight whatever the company, praising what they like and criticizing what they don't.
>Sony has not put anything new in their cams since they first introduced high res mode. And that was years ago. What are you smoking? Every generation has improved AF, low light, DR, and video. The A7 II was the only one that went backwards on DR/low light. And I say that as someone who doesn't really care for Sony (shit color science, non existent weather sealing, and a UI that makes you want to kick something).
But here's the bottom line: the market is shifting to larger sensors. It was always dominated by APS-C with mft on one side and FF on the other. Financials across the board show that APS-C has thin margins and people are shifting to FF. They're doing this for the IQ and for greater differentiation against phones. Phones are always going to be able to out computational photography mft, while larger sensors are always going to have superior IQ characteristics. mft is getting squeezed from both ends in a collapsing ILC market.
Have you seen the Sigma fp? That's something Olympus should have done. That's innovation in response to what the market is demanding. Olympus should follow Panasonic's lead and go FF.
