Having so much control at your fingertips
With no compromises
Is a breath of fresh air when many mirrorless cameras take a more paired down approach. Having something small
Light
But still suitable for speed and rigorous shooting is fantastic. It is g
Incredibly fast and accurate AF
Weather Sealed
Very useful EVF
The editors didn't like
Even though the micro four thirds can rival APS-C in terms of image quality
That sensor size is still a roadblock for shooters who crave super shallow depth of field. When you are spending over a grand on a camera

If you really need need the much larger files, slightly better exposure range or low-light performance of a full-frame camera, or if you can't live without 1024p or 1060p video, then the E-M1 may not be for you. By the same token, if you just want to take...
Abstract: Olympus ' first OM-D model wastop of the compact system camera league for nearly two years. Can the younger, more serious Olympus OM-D E-M1 live up to the old Guvnor's legacy, or will it be David Moyes to the E-M5's Fergie?The E-M1's weatherproof body is ...
For an insanely large amount for a camera that feels a bit too digital to use, and yet reminds you of a retro feel – the OM-D E-M1 is caught between two worlds. It does redeem itself in the way it handles and takes great images and videos, but the design ...
Incredibly fast and accurate AF, Weather Sealed, Very useful EVF
High ISO performance can be dodgy, A little pricey
Olympus, for some awkward reason, chose an incredibly difficult naming scheme for its flagship mirrorless lineup, but moving past that, you realize there is something incredibly special about this camera. This isn't going to be your usual review, simply b...

The OM-D E-M1 is a serious investment, but if you want the experience of a professional camera without the bulk and weight a DSLR, then you should absolutely pick it up. Nothing else offers the same level of ergonomics, customizability, and durability th...

Abstract: Olympus held off from releasing any major products at Photokina 2014, but did unveil the OM-D E-M1 in a rather lovely silver finish. The E-M1 is exactly what it sounds like: a silver-colour version of the original black model, but one that also delivers...

Pro-like manual controls, Rock-steady stabilisation, The fastest autofocus around
Continuous AF can be beaten
Should E-M5 owners upgrade to an E-M1? Probably not, especially if they've got the optional battery grip. But everyone else should sell every camera they own, plus a body part and any heirlooms knocking about in the loft, and buy the new Olympus' flagsh...
Solid feel build quality with dust and splash proofed body, in-body image stabilisation, image quality right up there with an actual DSLR to most eyes
Smaller imaging sensor than an APS-C DSLR, button and control layout is busy and can feel a little cramped at times
Despite a few reservations the OM-D E-M1 is right up there at the pinnacle of what a compact interchangeable lens camera can achieve. For most of us, in comparison with a DSLR, the image and build quality will be more than good enough to prompt a possible...
