Default Ming Thein reviews the Olympus E-M5
Full review: The Olympus OM-D E-M5

A number of interesting comments and photos in a rather nicely laid out review (he also has recent reviews of several much fancier cameras!).

Cheers,

DH
Thanked by Amin Sabet, Fred49, alans and 2 others.

This is an interesting review. I like his posted samples much more than many critics who rushed their reviews without really taking many solid photos yet.

I agree. It's a great read with wonderful sample shots. This guy is a really good photographer. I wish I had his skills.

He has a followup about doing a professional shoot with the E-M5, nicely illustrated like his review. He even mentions in passing that the E-M5 beats his D700 for IQ at low ISO?!

On the downside he did experience a number of camera lockups. Hope they can fix that bug soon...
