>>4317983>Weather resistanceA new-style sony, with a WR lens, has never failed where an olympus would not. I've seen them fail because of non-WR lenses like cheapo samyangs and really old sony glass being used - and the dirt cheap lenses for these ILC digishits are not WR either.
>light weight zoomsBecause they are f5.6 equivalent (same results as if FF used an f5.6 lens for bokeh/noise, not pixel level sharpness) and slower while the slowest zooms on FF are straight up f4. The photos literally look like what comes out of a samsung galaxy unless you pixel peep hardcore. I'm sorry, this shit sucks. ONLY gearfag communities like /p/ and dpreview recommend this shit. To people who are not literal fucking camera collectors, this shit is pointless. It sucks. Just like you cant tell full frame apart from APS-C unless you pixel peep. But to make it a pixel peeping matter on m43 you can never shoot higher than ISO 200 and you need to use manual focus only f0.9 lenses, otherwise it looks like a phone without pixel peeping.
>on the cheaper endSo is upgrading your iphone SE to a new samsung galaxy.

Listen guy, a dirt cheap sony nex with a pancake prime is a better photography camera (the autofocus is as bad as m43 too). These micro four thirds are gearfag cameras. They are for pixel peeping only, because to tell them apart from 1" point and shoots and phones, you need to pixel peep. At least full frame has a non-pixel peeping reason to be used: Using quirky old lens designs as they were intended, not with a tighter FOV and finer grained sensor. Looking at the whole image there is nothing separating it from a good android flagship like a samsung galaxy or sony xperia.
