« on: May 13, 2010, 03:41:14 pm »

i use this one as a second compact camera for landscapes and want to ask you a simple question

is there any comparable to olympus e-p1 in size camera which gives more resolution and better picture quality then e-p1 excluding leica products (insaine price)?

panasonic gf-1 or maybe sigma dp1? your thoughts... do i`ve to worry about, or just stay with e-p1?

In a word, no. Don't worry about it and stick with the e-p1.

There are rumours of future Panasonic cameras with a 14million pixel sensor, but only rumours!

The just announced Sony NEX3 and NEX5 might offer better quality - larger sensor and I think 14MP.

It's not only the camera, though. It remains to be seen how the Sony lenses compare to Olympus and Panasonic MFT lenses. I have the E-PL1, sold the kit Olympus 14-45mm lens and kept the Panasonic equivalent as the panny had much better IQ. Also, Sony will have fewer primes (I think only one), and no fast primes at launch.
