Olympus weathersealed cameras

I have been using Olympus pro grade cameras since E-3. Used E-3, E-5 and now E-M1. For all those cameras that Olympus cameras, I have been using them in extreme conditions and have not yet encountered any trouble.

I have to mention though, in E-M1 once I had condensation in the EVF but didnt experience malfunction. I guess this is because inside the mirrorless camera especially with IBIS, it is quiet warmer than traditional DSLR like E-3 or E-5.

I went for shower climbing and brought my E-M1. Carried and used it without hesitation.
