Deciding between M43 and Fuji

I shoot both MFT (with Olympus, and a couple of E-M1iis) as well have Fuji (currently use an X-Pro2, but also have an X-T1 and have used an X-T2 and X-H1 in the past). Both are good systems and I love them both, but it is worth mentioning that on the subject of size, Fujifilm will struggle to create

First leaked image of the new OM-5II

I truly hope—pray, even—that OM System’s next release won’t just be another rehash like the OM-1 Mark II. That camera, while fine on paper, was essentially a software update sold at full price, and it left many of us deeply disillusioned. I’m starting to lose hope in the brand. I’ve been using the E

So who's buying an OM-5 II and why? (Surprise: Me?)

I had just placed my preorder yesterday for the new sand beige version, I think it looks great. I’m actually coming over from the Fujifilm system and the X-S10. I’ve been eyeing OM system for a while now, super intrigued by its compact form factor, IPX rated weather sealing, and computational featur

My first M43, pls help.

That of course will be a matter of opinion. But the general trend in the last 5 years has been away from the classic M43 compact style and toward bigger bodies with more capable sensors, cpus, and batteries. There are two that I can think of currently in production, and then I can think of two more

Beginner: OM-5 I/II, GX9 or Fuji?

Hi OP, welcome to GAS (Gear Acquisition Syndrome/Sickness) and Analysis Paralysis :) If you want to take photos of mostly static people, I would recommend Fuji X-E5. I find it has more pleasing skin tones than OM. Fuji also has shallower DOF (Depth of Field) due to larger sensor so that there will b

Latest Camera Sales Results

Why are you even posting in the m4/3 sub? You seem to despise the system and come here to piss all over it. I've noticed that your posts are frequently downvoted. I have everything from the Pen F and OM-3 to Fuji APS-C to the a7cr and Canon R5ii. I use them all and appreciate what each can do. There

So who's buying an OM-5 II and why? (Surprise: Me?)

Yeah I can see why it seems like we’ve had 3 cameras that are the same that have slowly chipped away at what was needed. I don’t think that’s especially fair when looking at the E-M5.3 and the OM-5. They are based on two different “1 series” cameras, E-M1.2 and E-M1.3. The major missteps were: The E

Camera for deployment

OM-5 II is a good choice. Pair it up with an OM System 17mm f/1.8 MK II and you have a very compact system that can handle deployment abuse. Big zooms or even larger primes will just get in the way. I've been all over CENTCOM with an older version of that setup (EM-5 II). If you leave the lens hood

OM5 ii Alternative Recommendations

I have spent a bit of time (probably more than I should) hunting for the 'perfect' camera. Small size with lenses, and high quality. After trying the fujis, apsc, I have ended up with my OM-5 and I truly think it is the best option out there at that functionality and price point. Even if the bodies

New OM Camera

What I expect: OM-5 II update with USB-C and new menu system will continue to use IMX272 sensor with the same PDAF points, but with a TruePic X processor, tamed down a bit for the smaller battery size of the 5 series (think, lower clock speed, fewer features enabled). $1200 MSRP. The update to the p
