Watch What You Read UP-DATE

Yes I have a new M43 camera. So I that that I would look for some Why M43 camera. I didn't get far. The first, and maybe my last, article didn't show a published date in the header. Ok not a big deal I thought. Wrong. The author started to give the usually favorable comments, weight, 2x crop, ... Then the negatives., Lack of lens line up, slow auto focus, low light ability, noise, ...

But wait, there are a lot of lenses, not as many as Nikon, Cannon, Tamron, Sigma to be sure. Low light ability to be sure, noise ok I'll give you that.

I stopped reading because I don't see many of the shortcomings in my OM-D E-M5 iii, and he started discussing Olympus OM-D. I skipped to the end to see if his review had a date. He didn't, the comments were closed and the last comment was 2013. 

Seven years is a long time in camera years. Most, maybe all previously shortcomings have been eliminated except ISO performance and bokeh. But do you really need that?

So when you look at a review make sure it is current.

Bard, Google AI, doesn't always get it correct but in this case I think it is. I've seen FB posts that are dated regarding photography. Bard said https://g.co/bard/share/d37365bc868a
