I feel strongly that Sony has been changing in the past year and finally getting...

Sony's digital cameras are very innovative (the RX range and the A7 ranges come to mind)

They bought into Olympus, that investment seems to be paying off.

You sure? They outright acquired Minolta.

It was about medical equipment. See: Sony to invest $644 million in Olympus, become top shareholder http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/09/28/us-olympus-sony-st...

Right, interesting. Although nothing to do with 4/3rds and cameras.

Correct ;-)

I think you are right. They bought Minolta and use that as a start in regards to their SLR range.

Can you explain this? Most of Sony's current products were probably deep in development before they even invested in Olympus.

Is there anything in Sony's current crop of cameras that is based on Oly tech? I don't think they've added Oly's five-axis IBIS into any cameras yet.

Sony's investment in Oly may pay off in the future, but I'm not sure it applies to anything Sony currently sells.
