I accidentally ordered a D5100 thinking a was getting a D5200, didn't realize it until I opened the box, knew I got a good deal on that thing hahaha so I sent it back and ordered a d5200.
Wow. Spoken like a true snob. I have both the 5D Mk2 and the Gx7. They perform almost identical.No, lenses are definitely not 1/4 the price. Great lenses for fourthird are also expensive, just like for any other sensor format.
A good lens always has the same price, no matter the sensor size, because archieving the high quality is what makes it expensive, not the amount of materials needed.
Also, he will only be happy he doesnt want to do the things that DSLRs are superior at - like children and pets running around at high speed, or sports, even worse in the dark.
Also he wont be happy if he doesnt like the current status of EVFs, and their various possible problems, like flickering under artificial light. Made worse by the fact he's going to buy a cheap camera and made even worse if he gets one that doesnt even have an EVF in the first place, only a monitor.
Also he wont be happy if the small sensor doesnt suffice his image quality needs - after all, these sensors already have visible noise at base ISO and they dont have as much reserves with critical situations, like High ISO or dynamic range, either.
As a simple to use camera with sensor based image stabilization, the Olympus OM-D E-M1 is great - but I dont see the money saving option there. Right now you still pay extra for less, or pay extra for small size and have to pay some extra penalties, like inferior AF-C (the AF-S of Olympus is extremely good).
As a general camera, I still see DSLRs in the clear advantage, and thats why I would also recomment it to any newbie.
