Crisp image quality, Advanced controls and highly customisable, High quality EVF
Left-hinged screen feels unintuitive on this camera
performance was expectedly swift from this camera, and its picture quality is as good as what we expected considering the other Olympus cameras we've tested in the range. Clarity was high, with plenty of detail captured without blemishes, and colours rem...
Brilliant design and build quality, Superb OIS system, Great for monochrome images
No 4K video recording, Low-light performance could have been better, Slightly expensive
No doubt, the Olympus OM-D EM-5 Mark II is a great mirrorless camera, but one must bear in mind that it comes at a high price. Olympus is selling the body only for Rs. 74,990 and of course lenses and accessories will cost you much more.Many people will ar...

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. Sonys a6000 can be found for half th...
No 4K video recording, High Res Shot only works in certain situations
Olympus took its sweet old time releasing an upgrade to its original OM-D E-M5, but as some philosopher probably once said, some things in life are worth waiting for.What we have here is a number of small, but significant, upgrades that make it tempting e...
Abstract: Background StoryI have been using a Nikon V1 for about 4 years now, for days when I just want to have a camera with me but am not willing to carry a bulky or heavy DSLR around. It does serve me very well as a companion to its bigger DSLR siblings – especi...
