This IMO is enough to kill the X10. I am sure when pixel binning is applied to obtain 6MP images, the DR and high ISO performance will soar, but at 12 MP, I doubt the X10 can match the m43. We'll see.
As Luminous Landscape points out, there is a myriad of camera choices out there right now. I like the following types best: Canon S100 (for compactness) -> Panasonic GX1 -> Nikon/Canon APS-C -> Nikon/Canon compact FF -> Pentax 645D (for ultimate image quality). <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

I don't see how with pixel binning yoiu can end up with 6mp from 12 mp... Still will be almost as noisy, so not much DR increase. Only when you can also "bin" red and blue things will improve a lot?
