Editor's Choice: Olympus OM-D E-M5 Review – Fast, Featured, Fun
This camera was designed for the shutterbug, especially the street photographer. With it's high speed, great low-light performance, and exceptional build quality, the OMD EM-5 is definitely on the short list of cameras to consider, and as such the OMD EM-5 is easily an Editor's Choice in my opinion.
Some classic designs really have been around for so long, that you appreciate the beauty of them in a much deeper way, as it starts to grow on you. Things around such timeless designs can keep changing, but their stillness really makes them stand out and leaves a big impression on you.
Olympus OM-D E-M5 Micro Four Thirds camera review
Olympus's OM-D E-M5 is the company's best camera yet, but battery meter and focusing issues may be a dealbreaker for some.- Incredibly fast autofocus
- 5-axis image stabilization
- Manual/auto-zoom kit lens
- Expensive
- Battery meter issues at launch
- Poor focus accuracy in low-contrast scenes
Olympus OM-D review
Cameras with a retro look and feel are big business right now, a trend Olympus arguably started with its original E-P1 Compact System Camera (CSC) from 2009, which harked back to its maker's ‘Pen' camera range of the 1950s/60s.- Solid build and retro style
- Angle-adjustable OLED
- Integral viewfinder
- Backplate buttons are tiny
So much power in such a small package
Shooting at high ISO no problem - toy like size but very powerful. Sold my bulky Canon system and bought something as powerful and now portable. Street shots a pleasure. Expensive though.- Durable
- Almost Too Small Buttons
Best camera I ever owned
I belong to a photography club were we go on monthly photo shoots which some of them have to be existing light no flash. The last one was very dark with only limited lighting from windows and fluorescent. I had to use a high ISO and the results were great.- Easy to Use
- Fast Shutter Speed
- Good Battery Life
- Good in Low Light
- Great Resolution
- Large Clear LCD
- Small / Compact
