>>4374157Other brands could always seal their cameras, to about the same degree. Olympus didn't introduce an innovation there, and their "weather sealing" is most likely worse than nikons. IRL the D850 is basically waterproof, and the only time it got any water in it was when it was tested alongside an olympus. The same test almost killed a sony that was also filmed being shot in the rain for 1hr without problems.
HOW?
Well, OM System also paid off petapixel to outright lie about the G9II's low light performance and claim the OM-1 was better (IT IS LITERALLY 1.7 STOPS OF DR BEHIND AT EVERY ISO), so we can assume something about olympussy's past behavior from this.
When Olympus/OM system provides anything to a reviewer, they pay them off to make olympus look more favorable.
Add in sample size and a few forum posts about olympus garbage dying from light moisture and olympus starts to look more like sony
