Are requests permitted in this thread? If so, where can I find the most down-to-earth yet critical review of the Q2M? I am especially interested in how it performs in the harsh conditions of the arctic. Any issues with the equivalent of color polygons as shown here? I am asking because my X-U has it, and while it is excusable in that camera, I would not tolerate it in the Q2M. Also, any issues with lines through the image center as some M10M users are reporting?
I know I should just rent the camera, and I will, but recreating arctic conditions in SoCal is tough. The issue with the colored polygons in my Sony was especially obvious in highly monochromatic scenes, and it only disappeared when I covered up the electrical contacts, which isn't an option in the Q2M.
