?! According to the article (mind you, I've doubts ...

a series of seven people who are well-informed-photographically were invited to try to separate into piles A or B the prints (presumably paired per view, 1 from each camera), viewed up close w/scrutiny --and they couldn't do so better than chance.

It was more than this, merely: "hugely superior". And there is much camera ground to cover beyond these two candidates (incl. m4/3, e.g. between them), for which one should then expect like distances of IQ, but it doesn't add up in total! (My own experience is with older versions of the pair --D40 & LX3--, and I don't see that difference (but in SOOC JPEGs only).)

Thanks for sharing, you sound cozy.
