In these days, Manual focus + Otus level pricing = DOA?
Or at least ultra niche, which is not a recipe for good sales, and thus income...

Your predictions seem to be borne out by reality...

Do you think Zeiss Otus buyers are consulting SonyAlphaRumors? ;-))

Meh, one doesn't have to be an expert at reading tea leaves to predict this.

In other news, OL has gone exactly two years without any MFT reviews, as of today.

It doesn't make sense to continue testing @16mp ... nor does it make sense to restart at 20mp - it's not enough of gap ... nor does it make sense to use 26mp because there are so few users with these cameras ...

When looking at the sample images provided on various review sites, there is a certain Zeiss look to the images. Whether this look justifies the cost, everyone needs to decide by themselves.
