Damn you, Mike ... I didn't want to hear this! I have been in denial as far as Sony is concerned, but I can no longer look away! Let's hope Olympus is fully aware of the Sony threat/competition so they do not overprice the E-M1 III and 150-400 lens!

I don't think anyone believes it will be $3300....and that is kind of my point. Lets say it is $7000. I can still get the $3500 A7r IV and the $2000 200-600mm and run that in crop mode, pocket the difference for a trip somewhere and have 26 MP instead of 20. I am not paying attention to the 1.25x TC on the 150-400mm because that may or may not be that usable in real work conditions. IMO Sony is the real competitor for someone who might consider the Oly 150-400mm. At least it is for me.

No, and anyone that said it will be close to that is out in left field.

Geez, weather must be really bad in Victoria today if you are slumming it here on the M4/3 forum.

You should know by now that Tony is a two-timing grass-is-greener-on-the-other-side kind of guy who blows with the wind, so he frequently ends up here to stir up the pot for his personal amusement.

Well, Bobby, I offered you my a9 + 200-600 to shoot with at Bosque and you turned it down! Too bad for you, though. If you had used it, at least you would have come back home with some in-focus images

Gee, Mitesh, that's quite a cruel comment. Cruel, but true!

Sorry, Bobby, looks like I am picking on you as well.

It matters not what you shoot Tony , your work stands on it own . I hope you have a great time once again with Olympus.

Are you saying that Tony is making a huge mistake dumping his A9 and 200-600 lens and returning to Olympus - as he won’t be taking sharp pictures anymore? I think Tony made a very smart move!

Recently handled my brother’s D850, 24-70 f2.8 and 70-200mm f2.8 kit. Inspite of the inherent limitations, I am more happy with my Olympus kit and enjoy using it. Though he wanted to give his Nikon kit to me as a gift, I refused to accept.

If that thing shoots 4K 60p with stabilization like the X-H1 (which was right there with Olympus/Panasonic) that could be pretty dang tempting. I just wish they'd move away from the X trans sensor... Which won't happen.
