Wrap up: "Simply put, we love the E-M5"
In reply to kermitG9, May 6, 2012

Overall quite a positive review - barring the focus issues. Which they suggest are 'arguably minor'.

Sadly they aren't so positive on the Pro 1, which is a superb camera (albeit also not perfect).

I went out in search of a new camera today and ended up with the OMD. Love it so far.
