Using the current "King of Low Light",the 6D, I'm getting horribly
spoiled by ISOs that high enough to be confused with the National
Debt. While I can actually live with a smaller sensor (combined with a
"speed booster" adapter), I'm having too much fun shooting handheld
night shots to go backwards.

As to quality questions, that takes two forms: Camera Quality and
Image Quality. I'm pretty well convinced that Olympus has the best
Camera Quality on the market right now. It's an amazingly well sorted
out camera system. Image Quality, in the past couple of years, is
generally considered to be a non-issue. Yet, it's a non-issue when
compared to other cameras for lower-ISOs and "normal" shooting
applications. Cameras, such as the 6D, are "OK" generalist cameras,
but very good specialist cameras. Yet, those who would seek out the 6D
for specialist applications have the Sony A7RII that is even better.

If the new Olympus were to match the 6D for high-ISO performance, and
a "speed booster" were to match quality and AoV for my legacy lenses
with the 6D, I'd definitely be all over it.
