Just bought a used Pen EP5. How careful do I have to be when using it?

E-P5 is a great camera but it has 1 huge downside. Failing dials !

I had 2 these cameras both of them had a same fault. I guess it is a general issue and you will likely have to deal with it sooner or later.

Olympus did not change anything and did NOT redesign any part of their top plate stuff.

If dial fails all they do they swap the whole top plate for a new one. But the new one will fail as well.

It did for me. So beaware. And there are many reports that say the same thing.

Cheers
