I've been a long term M4/3 user. Although acceptable, I've always found the image quality from any m4/3 camera to be subpar. Used the GH2, EM5, and now EM1. I've tried almost all the lenses and more often than not I get the "digital grey" flat images right out of camera. Sure, after a little processing I have been able to make them come alive but they cannot compare to what I used to get from my 5D2.
I am about to give up on mirrorless cameras and go back to a DSLR. Until the Fuji XT1 came along. I have tried it at the store but did not get a chance to play around the files. For you Fuji users who also have a full frame and m4/3, I'd like to get your advice on below:
1. general terms, is the out of camera jpg better quality than m4/3? (in terms of micro contrast and sharpness) I know ISO is better. provided that lenses are comparible.
2. how much is it still lacking compared to a DSLR with pro lens
3. How much more room does the RAW files have compared to m4/3
4. how does it take Leica M lenses? any issues with focusing, or corner smearing?
Thanks a lot
