I didnt see good quality, solid disadvantages.

photo-video quality is directly proportional to the generation of the matrix and its size.
4/3 hit the diffraction limit. if you clamp above 5.6, the resolution will drop at 20mp.
I won’t assure you, but the plans of the Olympus will either be sold to Sony so that it buys out patents for the stub or release its own ff
don’t be fooled by fast focusing, because you’re not actually shooting at 2,8 but at 5,6 - it’s much easier to get a focus spot more. it's not 1.2 85L
0.95 autofocus is not yet in the system. there are 25 f1,2 but this is an analogue of 50 f1.8 which cost 10 times cheaper
I choose my own camera. I saw the prices for lenses and thought - they went crazy

Pros

range comfortable

Cons

1) 12-40 is an analogue of 24-80. in optics 24 is difficult to do so the correct optics should have a range of 28-70. maybe it's not as convenient as 24-80, but there will be no horse distortion. 2) and horse distortion. just look at photAmazon with camera correction turned off. It will definitely show up in the video. but if you are not an esthete, then it will do. 3) banal deception of the consumer. the fact is that 12-40 2.8 is presented as top-end optics. But the laws of physics are for everyone. 4/3 loses 2 stops of light f4.0 on ff = 2.8 on crop = 2.0 on 4/3 turns out to be misleading. actually equated the price of optics to 24-70 2,8 from nikon-canon, and it has a long history and prototypes but the most deception is that 2,8 from 4/3 is actually a zoom from 5,6 from ff would you buy a mediocre lens for a lot of money?
