Out in the forest before dawn. With gloves there is of course no chance to use the power switch (extremely akward even under the best of circumstances) or the buttons. And even with freezing finger tips the handling of the OM-D was so difficult that I regretted having sold my 5D2.

But then, the quality of the shots obtained made up for the trouble

I agree the E-M5 isn't the easiest of cameras to use in the cold. Without wanting to turn this into a E-M5 vs GH3 thread (I own both), I will say that in using the GH3 in the snow the controls are a good bit easier to use with gloved or cold hands.
