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' flagship....
