Many words have been printed about this diminutive camera and you've no doubt read all the technical discussion. But what can you DO with one Ergonomics: Oly were always pretty good with ergonomics - more shooting, less fiddling and the EM-5 is great, given the size restraints.

Love the E-M5
The E-M5 is a great camera, fast to focus, easy to use. Battery life is not as good as I would like about 200 shots to a recharge. Oly quality through and through.
Pros:
- Easy to use
- Compact
- Build quality
- Screen size
Cons:
- Battery life

Triumph of the Form Factor
SLR lovers never had it this good. The entire camera scene seems to have exploded in the past 3-4 years and getting your hands on a "mean" machine is no longer as difficult as it used to be .

Olympus OM-D E-M5
This camera is compact and easy to hike with. The pictures are excellent, have developed several 16 x 20 with great results. The camera works great for HDR photos, just set bracketing and fast sequential shooting.
Pros:
- Image Stabilization in camera so lenses are affordable
Cons:
- You will need to study and practice with the camera to get all features figured out

Fantastic Camera!
Really loving this camera so far, high end photos and video from this tiny little thing! Kit lens isn't bad, comes with a macro feature which is great, and also electronic zoom for smooth video. All in all a great little camera!

The only camera kit I ever regretted buying, just didn't deliver the results for me. Portrait photography was uninspiring with this. The only good lens was the 45mm f1.8.

The Oly OMD has to be one of the best cameras I've ever owned. I've been a professional photographer for 25+ years traveling the world shooting for magazines and stock. I own Nikon,Leica and Canon pro gear.In many situations the OLY aces past the Nikon D7000 in focus and image quality.

An awful lot of camera in a compact body
The E-M5 is, without question, is a very accomplished Micro Four Thirds camera and one of the most capable mirrorless option available. It has flaws and are relate to continuous autofocus. But, however, the E-M5 is an awful lot of camera in a compact and attractive body.
Pros:
- Bright Punchy Jpegs
- Durable
- Good Level Of Direct Cont
- Great Features
- Great Picture Quality
- Lightweight
- Simple Controls
- Very Fast Autofocus
Cons:
- Focus Tracking Unreliable
- No Incamera Ca Correction
- Small Controls Awkward

A Lot of Fun in a Compact but Solid Body
I take this camera everywhere, which speaks for its compactness and ruggedness - its built to withstand abuse, and various weather. Its simply fun to use with a reasonable amount of controls accessible.
Pros:
- Easy to Use
- Fast Shutter Speed
- Good in Low Light
- Great Resolution
- Large Clear LCD
- Small / Compact
Cons:
- Short Battery Life
