Re: The E-M5 cannot replace a DSLR.

In reply to muddyfunster, 11 months ago

Well, I read some of the posts, but did read them all.

Bottom line I'm on the fence between an OM-D and a Pentax K-5 for low light street photography, concert photography and landscape photography. Fast and accurate AF in low light is a must.

Will the OM-D behave as well as a DSLR in these types of photography?
