Re: Cutomising new cameras

Congrats Trevor, we know you'll make good use of it.

Regarding customising, how I eased myself into the frighteningly different and more complex em1-mk2 when it arrived, was to program the controls so that the main ones operated as similar as possible to the GX8 (and gx7) that I am so used to.

Then after a week or so I gradually programmed all the extra controls to do various 'nice' things.

However - I tend to take both cameras with me on important shoots and - I still get in a bit of a muddle when frequently swapping!

Best of luck.

If the EM1-2 had been available at a similar price I may have been temped to go in that direction but I am even more daunted by the settings, at least as described by contributors to this forum.
