How Good is the OMD-EM5
6 months ago

Hi Forum,

I suppose we shouldn't be comparing it to a Nikon D800 or a Canon 1DX but it's really quite good.  For my recent trip to Indonesia, I sold my Olympus E5 along with a few lenses and got the EM5 to reduce my travelling weight.

The EM5, paired with the 45f1.8 was suppose to be my second back-up kit but ended up being my main kit.

Here are a few images including one from my E5 and 12-60 a lens which I still have and use every now and then with the EM5 via an adapter.  Slow as hell to focus.

E5 and 12-60.  Hot Springs in Bali

Oly OMD-EM5 with 45f1.8.  Shot taken with 800iso and f1.8 at 1/15 seconds hand held.

EM5 and 45f1.8.  Shot taken at Rinca Island, off Flores, Indonesia

EM5 with 45f1.8.  Shot taken with FL600R fired wirelessly at 1/400 sec, high sync mode FP
