We got a pre-production unit of the Olympus OM-D E-M5 this morning and have been testing it all day with much gusto. Having owned and used the Olympus PEN E-P3 for several months now, I was kind of excited to see what the Olympus OM-D E-M5 brings to an already great line-up of impressive Olympus PEN series. After un-boxing a pre-production unit early this morning and taking a few sample shots, I was glad the OM-D did not disappoint. On the outside, the OM-D has that very solid feel, quite heavy for its size actually. The OM-D borrowed some nice features from the E-PL3 and the EP-3 like the tilt-able LCD screen, the full capacitive touch display and an attachable electronic viewfinder. If you've used a dSLR before, the interface and buttons of the OM-D will be familiar while the extra ones will show self-explanatory symbols. The OM-D comes with an M.ZUIKO Digital ED 12-50mm f3.5-6.3 EZ as part of the kit lens. I wish I could get samples using the OM-D but I only have an overnight chance to use this camera.
