Consider the source. CR has never been very accurate in testing electronics in all the years I've seen their reviews. Clothes dryers and dishwashers and stores? Sure, CR is fine. Cameras, computers, etc? Not so much.

Yes the 5-axis IBIS will be slightly better than 3-axis IBIS in certain circumstances. That said, the E-M10's stabilization works very well in my experience.

You will be quite pleased with the camera. Nothing to worry about.

Yep, just ignore any results that don't fit your preconceived biases, and make yourself feel better by dissing the source. CR isn't perfect, but their tests are completely objective, which isn't true of very many internet sites.
