The EM5 has an amazing sensor for its size. it performs as good as a lot of APSC cameras. The K5 has the best of the APSC sensors though. Yes the K5 is better..... BUT ! its hardly a massive difference. It hardly warrants a discussion. Nobody would be dissapointed with the quality of the EM5. Unless you are a pro with clients wanting billboard size pics. I love the extra DOF the four thirds creates. One of the main bennafits is the ability not to need to use such high ISO in the first place to take the same pic. In low light shooting in the real world, the simple act of using a fast lens simply does not work because the amount of DOF is way too narrow. You can shoot four thirds at F2.8 which gives a simlar DOF to F5.6 on full frame or F4 on APSC. This equates too the full frame needing 12800 ISO APSC 6400 ISO and four thirds needing only 3200 ISO for the same pic. This narrows the gap considerably. I chose APSC format because it simply works as the best all around format. I find i need more DOF than less DOF far more often than I need shallow DOF. I can obtain more than adequate shallow DOF when needed with APSC though. So my interest in FF is zero. There will be a select few that are often after easy shallow DOF. Obviously if that is you then FF is the way to go. If your style and preference way of shooting is obtaining background detail or using long lenses then four thirds is the way forward. If you want a middling ground then it has to be APSC. There simply is no single better format, except which is best for the individual.

All three formats have there pros and cons. Even taking costs out of the frame. I love all three formats. I choose to use APSC because it sits in the middle. They are all Formats in there own right. It depends totally on the photographers subject and taste. If it was the other way around and APSC costs as much as Full frame and full frame costs as much as APSC I would still be using APSC. Its nice to have a choice of formats. As far as I am concerned APSC rules !
