Another thing the article fails to mention is that *everybody's* camera
business is way down lately. Including Caniquon's.
Micro-4/3 has always been an outlier. Micro 4/3 purchasers have to
enough to understand what the advantages are. They need to know at least
a little bit about photography beyond internet memes and propaganda, so
they can overcome the FUD that micro 4/3 is so much worse that APS-C
that it isn't even worth considering.
So if Oly is gunning to be the leader (fat chance), then obviously, no
good. But if they are trying to establish a niche market, they may be
doing as well as can be expected with a lousy economy. This of course
ignores all the financial scandal fallout and Stuff Ken Knows That We Don't.
Another thing to realize is that if Oly were to disappear tomorrow,
there would still be Panasonic, so our lenses would have someplace to go
when the Next Must-Have Quantum Leap arrives.
