Good handling with that big handgrip

Picked it up this afternoon and I'm playing with it now. Much better than the EM5. There are many more controls which can be accessed via buttons instead of having to go into the menu.

The switch between the viewfinder and the LCD screen has been automated too. Just hold it up to your eye and it switches to electronic viewfinder mode automatically.

You've tried it?

Nice!

I have a PL5 that is much lighter than SLRs that seemed to grow heavier and heavier and also much
better than compact cameras

I am happy Olympus still very much alive as I thought they would have died in that financial fiasco a couple years ago.

Initial impression...yes the improved hand grip feel better then em-5...no the camera is still quite short and moi find...despite moi small hand...still hav moi fingers all over the place on the top of the cam...couple of time moi accidentally hit the dial and chg the setting...lucky HLD-7 cum foc with the pre order...quite busy nowadays...no time to go out for field test yet...

12-40 is quick and snappy in focusing...lens hood cum foc...can reverse mount on lens when not in use ish a pruss...haven got time to dl foto n see on screen...

60mm macro at 1:1...like not much diff with em-5...still hunt quite abit...not sure anyway oni play around for 5mins ...

Just collected it this afternoon. Much better than the M5 and it has more buttons that reduce trips to the menu or control screen.

However, the menu is still as confusing as ever and since I haven't been using my M5 for some time, I had to re-learn things again.

Have not tried the built in HDR yet but I hate HDR effects anyway so probably won't be using it much.
