My experience with the EPL2 lead me to decide to pay more for a camera so I got a Oly OMD EM5 when the price dropped enough and eventually bought a few lenses that could benefit from such a...

My first digital camera was the Oly CZ-730.

In some ways it was an abomination with abysmal low light focusing and performance. But is good light it took surprisingly beautiful pictures as long...

@tedoman: yes I know but I turn Wifi on rarely so things aren't synced when I want them. I have no home Internet, only mobile ....I pulled that plug a long time ago.

Still no microSD, but if the 128GB model is actually available and really only 150$ more, this isn't as much of an issue as it usually is.

I still like microSD better as when you drop your phone...

The test image isn't bad from the DXO One, but suffers from general fuzziness, which is fairly extreme in the corners.

It is certainly better than my Note 4 camera, but that has a panorama feature...

Shutter shock sometimes rears its ugly head with my camera. Usually I can prevent it with the right settings, but sometimes .... there it is.

Absolutely fascinating!

My first picture with the OMD EM5 was taken March 2014 and I bought the camera new, so it is not a 3 1/2 year old camera. Oly was selling them 1 1/2 years ago.

It's embarrassing that none of this made it to the OMD 5 mk1.... and no explanation why not.

Looking at the test scene, I would say Sony has released a very useful camera. It does ISO3200 as well enough that I can read the bottom line of text easily and the images are pleasing. No doubt...
