We closed our poll. We had over 2.100 unique voters. Every person had three votes. 29% of the voters came from US, 34% from Europe, 23% from Japan and 14% from other regions.

What do we learn from the poll results?

1) It came with no surprises that people needs prime lenses (and possibly fast lenses!). Almost half of the voters voted for it!

2) The first surprise came on position three: 28% of the voters wants a camera with built-in electronic viewfinder (rangefinder look!)

3) 26% of the voters wants Olympus and Panasonic to continue the “classic” FourThirds line development. And many people (26%) is wants a High-End camera model that includes all the best features (wheatersealed body, fast autofocus and all the gimmics you need inside a High-End model).
Duarte (a 43rumors reader) added the following conclusion “The interesting issue here is that both of these groups are probably 4/3 hardcore users. The conclusion is that half of them are on jump ship mode (4/3 -> m4/3).”

4) “Only” 14% needs a fullframe camera.

Feel free to add your considerations! Comment this post!

P.S.: I voted for my “monochrome sensor camera” option, and only 2% voted for my idea :)
