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.

Astounding in almost every way, the Olympus OM-D E-M5 sets the standard for compact system cameras

Very fast autofocus; Sublime picture and video quality; Not as big as it looks

Buttons feel a bit naff

Ive looked for a DSLR type camera for years but only purchased this recently after reading multiple reviews and noticing it has won Camera of the year in various publications. This camera is known as a micro four thirds camera, basically it is smaller than your normal standard sized and full frame...

Only battery to get for Olympus cameras

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 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.

Easy to use; Compact; Build quality; Screen size

I bought this camera with a portrait 45mm f1.8 lens before the arrival of my baby. This combo is perfect for portrait photography. This camera comes with a lot of setting options that can be very helpful after you get use to it. I personally like the vintage look of this camera.

Lot of setting options; compact; lite and looks great

Little expensive compared to other entry level SLRs from Canon and Nikon

A five star so far. I've been using Olympus micro 4/3 equipment for a couple of years and have been very happy with it. I needed something with a built in viewfinder so I could use it with my studio equipment. Have been very happy with this one. Image quality, built, ergonomics all excellent.

Easy to Use; Good in Low Light; Great Resolution; Large Clear LCD; Small / Compact

Short Battery Life

The omd was probably one of the best mirrorless cameras when it first came out .... i have 2 systems the mfts and the leica .. i must say the omd though not as good as a leica is far superior to most crop sensor mirrorles including the cannon eos m which is a lot slower than the omd ( infact its one...

great camera just needs price fixing as this camera is two years old and the newer replacement EM10 is only very slightly more expensive.
