  • If you are the kind of discerning photographer who wants his or her camera to look the part, the OM-D E-M5 wins hands down. Although we had got the black bodied E-M5, there is one with a silver body, which looks like a compact version of the older generat...

  • The Olympus OM-D E-M5 Review shows that it is the most accomplished DSLR styled compact camera you have ever used. This camera vies for the position as the topmost mirror-less Micro Four Thirds camera. It is, without the question, one of the best cameras ...

  • We had a brief hands-on time with the latest and probably, the greatest micro four-thirds camera from Olympus – the OM-D E-M5, and we had promised of doing a detailed review. The OM-D E-M5 made it to our labs last week, and after exploring it for a goo...

  • Abstract:  Olympus reached back to its design roots when crafting the new OM-D E-M5 micro four thirds camera. The original OM line of film SLRs was known for its rich feature set and stylish, compact design. Now, released as a digital body, the first offering in ...

  • Abstract:  This is Olympus's latest mini-marvel, a miniature DSLR, in effect. Stylistically, it's pretty much a clone of the OM series that died out in 2003. Technically, the OM-D, as it's called, is not at all retro, but a near-professional, feature-laden, thorough...

  • Abstract:  Over the past year there has been an influx of retro-styled cameras making their way onto the market; now it’s the turn of Olympus to enter the ring with the film SLR-inspired Olympus OM-D E-M5. On paper the OM-D makes for an exciting proposition, clai...
