For manual video control you can choose between the old GH2 and the newer GH3 or the G6. For a video shooter on a budget the G6 is quite nice, it's a nice little camera which leaves little to wish...

With creative controls you mean the art filters like "dramatic effect, sepia, etc." No, you can't add them later, but you can shot RAW+Jpeg, the jpeg will have the effect, the RAW won't.

Where did you read that? Has to be wrong, standard behaviour when using a lens with in-lens stabilization on the GX7 the IBIS will be switched off.

Composing with the screen means liveview and in this mode the mirror is flipped up and this also means that the Phase detect AF doesn't work and the camera uses contrast detection. But most DSLRs...

Superzoom 4/3? This would be a big camera as a 1000mm equivalent is still a 500mm lens on 4/3. I use a 20mm, 45mm, 75mm on my Panasonic G5 without stabilization and I'm still getting sharp images,...

Probably a marketing move to position the GX above the G6 and GF6 in the current range.

The E-M5 doesn't have any of the 3 features mentioned in the first post...

Normally I use my G5, but for certain occasions I use my Oly E-PM1, which is a pretty small m4/3 camera. With the 15mm lens cap thingie it fits inside my trousers but it's not very comfortable....

I have my G5 since last year and use the articulating screen quite a lot (for framing shot from weird angles and when not in use to fold the display towards the body). The mechanismen feels solid...

I believe you'll find more awful pictures on the web which were taken with a DSLR so I can say that DSLRs are not up to par? The NEX series uses an APS-sized sensor, so the quality should be more...

Ok, this last post had much more info in it. I wasn't aware that the OM-D underexposes because of the difference between metering/menu ISO and actual ISO. I'll read a bit more about that, thanks...

According to dxomark..... wow... AFAIK we're talking about camera settings and on the OM-D the lowest setting is 200. I've also read reports that state that DR IS reduced. And even if it isn't how...

200 is the base ISO of the sensor, the E-P5 has no ISO 100, it has a "low" ISO setting which reduces dynamic range in exchange for the ability to use bigger apertures in bright light. It isn't a...

I'm using the "old" kit-zoom, the 14-45 with my G5. Rubberized zoom ring with a much smoother feel, metal mount and generally scharper across the frame than the 14-42. But it's also more expansive,...

You have to ask what's the difference between your rebel t3i and a full frame while owning a full frame? I think it's ok to sell one of them... ;-)

I'm more skillfull with my right hand, so I'm actually happy with the buttom placement. Normally I hold the cam in my left hand, index or middle finger on the lens release button. With my right...

This was expected by most previews, base setting is 200 and ISO 100 is "pull" mode with a loss of DR (I think Ming Thein mentioned about a half stop loss)

Here in the Netherlands several dealers have a body-only kit in stock, €599,-

But why bother with a CSC then? If you're not planning to buy/use additional lenses, wouldn't be a fixed lens big sensor compact make more sense?

My two cents (as someone who started photography 1.5 years ago): don't be ashamed to use the automatic-mode when you want to get a shot and are unsure what settings to use. Auto-mode works pretty...
