Buy a nice new lens for your current camera and go on holiday.
More like pay the car loan off, pay for the base of the conservatory to be built and try to sneak an A7R2 into the house

Why does it matter? If the quality control is there that’s what matters?
Some people do not want to buy goods made in China for political or moral reasons. I am surprised you've never heard this concept before.
As an aside, my Samsung phone is made in South Korea.
M43 gets slated for being too small in relation to FF, Fuji MF gets slated for not being bigger enough over FF

HahahaIt’s a good jump over full frame and price wise it’s not a bad proposition. I’m surprised they’re not selling more. It looks a good system.

Single card slot and 3fps, poor af esp in low light...
Have you been living under a rock, those specs mean it’s a pile of junk, best to buy a Sony.

You don’t need a bloody 2nd card slot. You just darent admit you’ve got market driven paranoia.I shoot landscapes. The only worry there is the lack of a second card slot and you do get that nice sensor

I’ve lost more images to people walking into my shot at the critical moment than any gear failure, I think I’ve actually lost 2 images to card failure in about 100,000 shots.
Why? Don’t tell me it’s like these do gooders who won’t invest in armaments or tobacco when doing a stocks/shares investment and won’t have a car with leather seats for “ethical” reasons.
They sound very sad people who should be ignored.
I wouldn't buy a car with leather seats or a wallet, shoes, coat etc etc
Not really as most are not real leather but faux unless the car is expensive. same with the gear surround.You must struggle to buy cars without a leather steering wheel.

wait till jonney.m reads it, his steering wheel will be a sony with duel layers of leather and its is the biggest game changerI really do sometimes wonder whether certain posters on here could divert traffic as easily as they divert threads
I've heard that before but ultimately such views you end up looking like a hypocrite because take for example Foxconn who makes Apple Products, some people says they would never buy products from Apple because Foxconn makes them and they have a reputation of not treating their employee well and reports of suicides due to harsh working conditions.
Then they don't realise Foxconn also makes parts for Hewlett-Packard, Nokia, Cisco, Huawei, Dell and Acer, and manufactures all three of the big game consoles, from Microsoft, Nintendo and Sony.
It's hard to avoid Made In China, because there are many things internally that is made in China that you know nothing about and can't avoid, you can claim you "do your part" but if you truly believe in the ideology of political or ethical, you need to go full Amish to achieve it in this modern commercial world.
I was thinking the same. The em1x is a hard sell.So the s1 ( body only ) is £600 cheaper than e-m1x ? That'll make olympus' job tricky

Yea looks goodhttps://www.techradar.com/news/lumix-s1r-and-lumix-s1-specs-and-prices-leaked
More specs and prices. The S1 seems to slot into the Sony A7iii/ Canon EOS R/ Nikon Z6 price range which I guess is no surprise.
I would have thought the people who would buy the S1 are exactly the people Oly know won't buy the EM1x.
The Panny does look good but the lenses also look amazingly expensive too. I keep nearly pulling the trigger on an A7iii and then not as I realise it doesn't add anything I need above the EM1ii, or even my EM5ii.
The original A7 adds a couple of things for me over my MFT cameras, being able to use old film era lenses at their intended FoV and the lovely files being two things.
If the Panasonic cameras are good for M mount and other Leica lenses that in itself could be a big attraction for some people.
But its not a lightweight option, these things are getting lardy!!!!
Sony A7 410g
Sony A7iii 650g
Canon R 660g
Nikon Z6 675g
Pana S1 898g

Chances are the lenses going on are quite hefty. I like a big feeling camera.
The weight of them keeps them nicely separated from their G/GH series, which I hope is a sign that they're going to continue with m4/3.
I appreciate that some like a bit of weight, but I'm not in that camp, its the weight of the glass thats putting me of a GFX-50R, while I love the IQ, the thought of lugging several kg's up a mountain puts me off!!
