Looks like a fine lens. The problem is the EOS-M body that frankly seems crippled to avoid stealing sales from Canon's own APS format dSLRs.

Have you updated the firmware?

A high cadence keeps their cameras in the magazines and on the websites with new previews and reviews.

As per your own expeience, the old cameras don't stop working just because a new model is...

You know, I had a hard time deciphering the subject. Before opening the thread I thought the subject was a pretty senior female, but that obviously wasn't the case: The subject was obviously young....

No, I didn't. Fair play to them, then.

One of those articles, the journalist hopes will be forgotten by the end of 2014. We'll see, but this looks like uneducated guesswork to me.

They're obviously not out to compete with NEX 7, and it is obviously not targeted at gearheads or pros: This is for people for who buy luxury cars and luxury watches and luxury clothes. None of...

Well, yes and no. Obviously the sensor plane needs to be stationary while focusing, but once focus is locked changing the sensor plane minutely to correct for z-axis movement may be done faster...

Gifrey is an uncommon spelling, luckily.

Gifrey is an uncommon name, luckily.

Luckily, mr. Wilh-I-Te has no jurisdiction outside the anglophone countries.

Besides I thought the RULE in English, was that three-letter acronyms (TLA) were spelled out (U-S-A, U-S-A!), and only...

It's almost perfect as a capable camera I don't mind bringing along where ever I go, but it's not enough of an upgrade on the 'M5 to make me succumb to the temptation.

I may have missed the point of your OP, but I have no objections to shallow DoF in food photography, I think that is the norm rather than the opposite, which is why tilt lenses are so popular with...

I usually prefer a viewfinder, but for tripod work, it's often a godsend with a good tiltable/swivelable display

The VF-4 isn't that big. It's about the same size as the VF-2. ...But I wish they made the EVF system modular though, with one part containing a hinge (and possibly swivel) and the other the...

Well, you're including some unnecessary / uninteresting background. For me DoF is a tool to remove distractions in the photo and create a focus on the subject matter, and as such even very shallow...

Yes, the RM-UC1 works perfectly with the OM-D. Note that it's a fairly short cable, about 90 cm long, so it's useful for tripod work, but not for triggering the shutter from across the room.

Built-in flash/commander is very useful, but not at the expense of having a larger hump or body. If there is room for it in the left shoulder like on the Pen 5, that's ok. The hump is going to be...

Considering the features of the Pen 5, it looks likely that many of those wishes will come true.

I agree; I prefer to use the OM-D without the grip, but when I'm using larger lenses, like adapted 4:3 lenses, or a large on-camera flash gun, the grip is very useful and gives me the leverage and...
