Great image quality, Good ease of use, Fast performance
The menu system is a little too helpful and its tips end up obscuring other menu items, Frame rate for Art filters still isn't smooth
The retro styling of the Olympus PEN E-P5 cloaks what is essentially a technical powerhouse when it comes to cameras. We love the image quality and ease of use of this camera, and its Wi-Fi feature is so far the best we've used for transferring photos to...
Excellent ergonomics and design; Build quality is pretty solid; Fantastic image quality; Great menu system; Art modes can be modified and bracketed; Built-in flash; Battery life lasted better than we expected; WiFi control works tremendously well for both
Autofocus seems to be a little louder than it should be; Paint wears down quickly; Vari-angle LCD doesn't have a lot of movement;
With the compact camera market in decline and interchangeable devices coming out in droves, consumers eager to buy a camera they can grow with are truly spoiled for choice. Nearly every manufacturer has something decent, and the old idea of “pick it up an...

Image quality is outstanding. Even shooting routinely at high ISO speeds, the pictures are clean and free of noise. Focus, exposure and white balance are consistently spoton
The Super Control Panel one of the glories of this camera and the Large Superfine JPEG setting are hidden under layers of menus. You will never find these things by accident and even with the ondisc user manual, should you ever open it, you are unlikely t
This camera is practically perfect in every way. Perfect design. Perfect size and mass. Beautiful lenses. Luxurious to touch and use. A gem of a camera. If only the Super Control Panel were active by default....

Image quality is outstanding. Even shooting routinely at high ISO speeds the pictures are clean and free of noise. Focus, exposure and white balance, even in difficult multilight situations, are consistently spoton.

We've nitpicked with the problems on this camera, but if we didn't there would be barely anything wrong with it. If you're in the market for a great mirrorless/Micro Four Thirds camera and have $1000 to spend, you'll do yourself a disservice by going past...
Like its predecessor, the PEN E-P5 will suit photographers who want a compact and versatile interchangeable-lens camera for general photography. It has the advantage of being able to use the many lenses and accessories designed for the Micro Four Thirds s...
Incredibly quick autofocus. Very fast performance overall. Intuitive dual dial control system. Focus peaking. Great image quality.
Handgrip is not removable. Only one frame rate for video recording
This impressive Pen camera from Olympus comes with built-in Wi-Fi, an appealing design and generally snappy performance to satisfy photographers who crave speed....
Fantastic screen, Lots of art filters, Builtin WiFi, 1/8000 sec shutter speed
No builtin viewfinder, Limited remote shooting, Kit lens a little disappointing
The E-P5 is one of the most fun cameras we've used recently, but that doesn't stop it from also being one of the most impressively performing. Image quality is superb, while handling, on the whole, is sensible and intuitive. It helps that the camera has ...
