This is our First Look at a pre-production E-M5 sample. We were fortunate enough to get our hands on an E-M5 for about a day. Unfortunately, they didn't send out a battery with the camera due to the fact that Olympus America only had one battery and ch...

The high-resolution sensor of the E-M5 delivers quality that rivals DSLRs. It shows very low image noise until ISO 1600 and remains usable up to ISO 12800 for mid-size prints and 25600 for small ones. The exposure system is really good and automatic white...
Very good image quality, even at high ISO, Bright, punchy JPEGs make the most of camera's capability, Very fast autofocus with most Micro Four Thirds lenses, Weather-sealed body, Built-in image stabilization helps increase number of sharp shots (in single-frame mode), Good level of direct control despite small body, Tilting OLED screen very good, Large amount of control over image parameters, A
Focus tracking distinctly unreliable, Image stabilization not effective for continuous shooting, Small controls sometimes awkward (especially with cold/gloved hands), No in-camera correction of CA (which can be problematic with 12-50mm kit zoom), Default JPEG settings a bit keen to blur detail away, Several useful features hidden in obscure and confusingly-named menu options, Otherwise useful H
The Olympus E-M5 is Olympus' eighth Micro Four Thirds camera and by far its most competitive. It combines the company's pleasing JPEG engine with a more modern sensor to create a photographic tool that lives up to the capabilities implied by its evoca...
Sammanfattning: This is Olympus's latest mini-marvel, a miniature DSLR, in effect. Stylistically, it's pretty much a clone of the OM series that died out in 2003. Technically, the OM-D, as it's called, is not at all retro, but a near-professional, feature-laden, thorough...
Sammanfattning: Over the past year there has been an influx of retro-styled cameras making their way onto the market; now it’s the turn of Olympus to enter the ring with the film SLR-inspired Olympus OM-D E-M5. On paper the OM-D makes for an exciting proposition, clai...

Olympus raises the bar for compact system cameras, but this capable all-rounder fails to shine in the company of upmarket DSLRs...
Compact, relatively light magnesium body. Both the body and the 1250mm kit lens are weathersealed. Fun, creative art filters for incamera experimentation. A wide array of available lenses. Supercomfortable and almostindispensable grip attachment,
No builtin popup flash. Can't change exposure settings while shooting video. Shallow eye cup diminishes the EVF's effectiveness in bright outdoor situations.
Whether you're agog over the E-M5′s flashback styling or you're absolutely exhausted by the nostalgia of its sheathing, there's no denying it's at the head of this century's pack of compact mirrorless cameras. Given the guts of this camera, its usabili...
Outstanding image quality; highly customisable feature set; compact design; wide seleciton of accessories and lenses; weather resistant body; art filters add fun factor; good macro mode on 12-50mm zoon; fast autofocus and burst mode
Menu system can be daunting; no built-in mic adapter; small buttons can be difficult for large fingers; soft humming when powered up
Olympus has been a leader in the Compact System Camera revolution, and the OM-D E-M5 will solidify that position. It is a good-looking, well-designed, highly capable camera. I recommend the 12-50 mm zoom lens with the body, which currently lists for £1,14...
