HI GeoffHmmmm ....
I wonder if the sensor will be EXACTLY the same as that of the G1? It would be great if the issue of poor corner sharpness with wide Leica-M bayonet lenses were resolved. My G1 is fantastic with any Leica glass over 50mm and almost unusable with anything below 35mm. I might even be persuaded to get over losing the articulated LCD and EVF (which I really like) of my G1 if the corner sharpness got fixed by the Oly camera..
I would have expected it to have the same sensor as the E620/E3 . .. but maybe that IS the same as the sensor in the G1. The corner sharpness is certainly an issue - it's interesting that it isn't a problem with the M8, which is using a great deal more of the imaging circle than 4/3. I wonder whether it's a physical sensor issue, or something to do with processing the file and lens correction?
Whatever, I quite agree, here's hoping!
