I'm been holding out for the latest version of the em5/OM5, and now that the announcement is official, I'm a bit underwhelmed. It's still a decent camera and it would be a significant upgrade from my current generation m43 cameras, and there's still a fair chance I will end up getting one. However I'm interested to know whether there are any other camera systems out there that will meet my wants.
I'm after
-something EM5 sized, ideally with the option of adding a battery grip for additional support if needed
-a system that offers smallish sized lens. I enjoy using Panasonic 15mm 1.7 & 25mm 1.4 sized lenses . I don't mind prime lenses with a smaller aperture if it means the lens will be smaller, particularly if the sensor is bigger too.
-some improved high ISO performance. Shooting comfortalby with ISO6400 or above with acceptable noise pattern
-decent face tracking autofocus. With my older m43 cameras, there was face detection but it would be SAF and not tracking... I feel I have missed critical focus in the past trying to get photos of my moving child.
-system with lenses that aren't too crazy expense, and have some affordable options.
Whats happening in fuji, sony, canon, nikon land?
