One of the most underrated things about the E-M5 is the bundled flash. It's the first I've seen that tilts and rotates just like a large speedlight flash. Tha

Image quality hasn't improved in the three years since the original EM-5 was released, despite still being very good, It's expensive when compared to cameras with larger sensors from other companies, Hard for me to get over the lack of detail when shootin
The EM-5 Mark II is certainly hugely capable as an enthusiast camera for general purpose photography. It suits most types of shooting, with the exception of fast-moving sports and wildlife. The biggest knock is price. Sony's a6000 can be found for half th...
Another excellent little OM-D When the original OM-D E-M5 debuted almost three years ago, it was sold on the promise of five-axis stabilization and retro design, tipping its hat to the legacy of Olympus's OM film cameras. That legacy lives on, but the...

Too easy to knock front dial and press HDR button by accident,Limited battery life as ever,Low-light image quality limitations,No 4K video
Although image quality and autofocus ability aren't giant leaps ahead compared to the first-generation model, the E-M5 Mark II shows that OM-D has landed. It's a good-looking, classy performer that takes the original's concept and elevates it to a higher...
Great 5-axis OIS, Excellent handling and controls, Much-improved EVF
No 4K video, Lesser detail and high ISO performance than some
The Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II isn't a camera that'll bowl you over with new features. That's not what it's about. Plentiful optimisations will subtly enrich what it's like to use, making it altogether better than what came before in just about every resp...

Abstract: These days, many (if not most) consumers are likely to shop based on price and capability, rather than according to whether a certain model contains a mirror, or not. We think this is a good thing; with all the increased competition, cameras are improving...
