That's it: my Em1.2 is gone before I destroy it.

We can learn everything if we put our will behind it. And if that is the standard, than intuitivity is lost on devices who operate on the basis of that.

There is no such thing as intuitivity.  No one is tabula rasa and master of everything that is "intuitive".

You must replace the word "intuitive" with word "familiar" and now you really understand what it is all about, it is about your previous experiences and knowledge to help that you can use something that you have not used previously by using other informations and hints to use it.

It is like most standard Rewind, Play/Pause, Stop and Forward buttons. They are not intuitive at all! But people do think so! Because so many has got familiar with those simple icons from their childhoods or first time using a such device that had them.

All devices are operating based some kind knowledge. Either you learn exactly to use them, or you learn to operate the principles. I can fly a russian aircraft has has all labels in cyrillic even when I don't know what the heck anything says, because there are very good logic how controls are placed and as I learned to fly first with principles instead what to do and when. Then when you get a fuze switch box front of you that is 6 by 7 grid and all looks same, then I am lost as I can't read cyrillic.

Meanwhile my Oly 4K is stuck in Flat View or something similar and the SCP nor anything I can find in the menu can make me change that...Great.

Flat profile. By default Fn2 button is a Multi Function custom button that you can change to something else if you want. But that MF Fn button operates so that you press and hold it to get multiple function menu and there you can find a Highlight & Shadow control option. Then press Fn2 again and you get to adjust it with front/rear dials.

That was the E-M1. In E-M1 II the menu has own Video Menu under Shooting Menu 2, from where you do all video settings separately from the photos.

Camera's for me should not get in my way and the Oly is very much in my way.

If you go to menus to play around and you have no idea what you are a doing, don't whine that camera is on your way when you don't know what you are doing in the first place! That button even has the icon on it!

Do guess how many has even noticed that blue [v] icon next to REC button? How many has logic to spot that blue color is same as the Playback icon has?

How many has logic that is selection button for the Playback mode where you can mark multiple images to be deleted, shared or locked?

How many has the information that Menu > Shooting Menu > Card Setup > Delete All is there to make things easy as it deletes all images that are not locked? That allows very easy image management on the go as you can lock the keepers and then just clear more space for memory card by deleting every image that ain't locked.

Also note that extreme customisability, which many people in such threads put forward as an excuse or to counterbalance "negativity" is a strawmen argument. No one is saying it is not hugely customisable at all.

That is the downside of it. People go and customize things, play around and they don't even remember them doing anything, instead they point their finger at someone else and say "That did it!". They get used to their customs and then when they reset camera or get new body, they are wondering why it is different.

Finally people are absolutistic where this is personal. I never said the cam is bad etc or may be I do occasionally for the sake of keeping an answer short. This is mostly a personal preference. I never said everyone else sell the cam. Just me.

Yes, it is you. You want something more complex that does things as you want with a press of a button.
