DPReview has completed their review and complains about EVF 'flutter' in AF-C. I wonder about forum's experience with AF-C. For anyone who knows M1m2 and owns G9, would love to hear about differences .. looking at you, Jono
.
That was a strange review. They keep listing all the areas where the G9 is superior to the E-M1 II, only to conclude with "Ultimately, we gave the EM-1 II a gold award, but the G9 walks home with a silver. Here's why: though the two are equally competitive, the Panasonic is playing catch-up to a camera released more than a year ago. And just being competitive is not enough to earn our top mark. But it is still certainly worth your consideration."
I get a feeling that since the GH5 received a gold award, and the GH5s probably will too, they can't give too many golds to an outsider company like Panasonic. It's like these "Car of the Year" articles that some motoring magazines have, where the top prizes are always distributed evenly between the large manufacturers :ROTFL:
Oh well... it's the advertisers who pay for the fun, so I guess they should have a saying too. Just don't try to believe that these reviews are unbiased. They rarely are.
Not that I care. I used to be the guy with that Citroën that reviewers warned you about, and the only time I had a Mercedes Benz were when one tipped over in the Swedish moose test. It was a briliant car, at least for me, and I didn't encounter a single moose
