Re: Subjective camera preferences.....

I find its the same with a lot of my tools, I find one that fits my hand and the way I like to work and that becomes my "go to" tool, even if I have purchased newer / "better ones" (thinking about it, I'm the same with shoes, loads of new pairs but its the old comfortable ones that seem to end up on my feet )

Moving on to my cameras, I've ended up with the EM-5 and EM-1 for a similar reason, its not the tech spec (although obviously if they didn't achieve the quality I wanted they wouldn't be in my bag) but the fact that, particularly with the EM-1 + grip, it fits my hand and is so "comfortable" to use that I don't think about it

I've got their via canon DSLR's and the early Panasonic m4/3rds, each of which had its strong points but it just so happens that the EM's are my "Comfy Shoes" when it comes to cameras

So much to learn, so little time left to do it!
