Thanks for all comments.

Chuck,
I didn't stay at Nara. For the journey I stayed at Osaka only. I went to
Nara, Kyoto by train for day trip only. There is 40 minutes by express
train from Namba, Osaka to Nara.

Ken,
Just a joke. However, Canon has released 500MP DSLR, Nikon elementary level
camera is 24MP, Sony A7R2 42MP .............. I don't know how to increase
pixel amount for MFT as other manufacturers. As a non-professional user, I
think 24MP + 4K video is good enough. I hope the next generation of E-M1
will be achieved :p





Cheers,
Michael
