M5 — Love it!
5

Today was a very warm and foggy day — +14ºC! I had a chance to try my M5 outside with Sigma 30mm Art and 55-250STM. I can only say — I love it! Firs

I can only say — I love it! First I had a funny feeling that AF is not working, the square was all the time green (I have sound conformation always turned off). Then I realize — AF is so fast that after using M and M3 I just not use to it:) EVF is great, I found myself using it much often than with M3. I have a little problem with touching touch focus with my nose in the vertical position, but I hope it will take a little time get used to it.

The camera feels very nice in hands— light and comfortable, even with Sigma lens, which is not compact and kind of heavy. Both lenses performed fast and very accurate.

As it was reported here before, bottom of the grip is a bit flimsy and sometimes clicking, but other than this small annoyance, body feels solid and nice in the hands.

Here are couple photos:
