M43 - Starter Kit - Criticism Please
Although I’m an OM user my impression is that you’ll be very happy with that setup but the G9ii isn’t that small. Both OM and Panasonic make significantly smaller bodies. I can’t advise you on Panasonic, but OM makes the OM-5ii which is beautifully small, has PDAF, and is weather sealed. I use the O

Wanting a lighter, smaller camera that's still good. I've had an Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II with Olympus M.Zuiko 17mm f1.8 lens for 11 years.
maybe you would be interested in the E M5 iii which is the first one in the line made of largely polycarbonate. the om-5 and om-5 ii are also polycarbonate and a similar weight to the E M5 iii. im struggling to think of anything else smaller, lighter AND weather sealed. you might be interested in so

Protection against water and dust
Hi, I work in an IP rating testing lab. IPX1 is laughable, but the reason it's rated like this is most likely only because they didn't bother with a higher tier certification. IP testing is long and expensive. You don't test the product until it fails, you just test what the manufacturer told you to

Looking for super compact digital (think Ricoh GR), with interchangeable lenses, but most importantly weather sealed, any suggestions?
That camera doesn't exist. Pick one, maybe even two - interchangeable lens / weather sealed / pocketable. Every one of these will have some trade offs Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark III / OM-5OM System TG-7Canon G1 X Mark III

OM-5 mkii Rumored Specs
If these are legit then what are the actual differences? It really seems the management at OM System are just grabbing whatever market they can without any investment or innovation. OM-1 was designed by Olympus before the restructure/takeover. The mark ii was essentially a firmware update. OM-5 is l

Newbie looking to start out in M43 mirrorless, veteran m43 users please give me some pointers
Weather sealing is more important than you think. Prioritize it. OM-5 (Or EM5 III) instead of EM10.

Should I stick with Micro Four Thirds or switch systems? (Currently using Olympus OM-D E-M5)
Full frame is better for low light moving targets. That said, that is exactly what I shoot: indoor sports. I found the 40-150 f2.8 lens affordable and absolutely fantastic. In addition you need a phase-detect autofocus camera. The EM5.III and higher (OM5 is the next in line), or the M1.II and higher

Upgrading from EM-5 mk II - How big is the difference between OM-5 and OM-3 really?
You are a birder - just get the OM-3 or OM-1, as it has subject detection autofocus and a faster sensor the autofocus performance of the OM5 isn't much better than the EM5 mk III. (Still better than the mk ii, but the OM1 and OM3 are a significant upgrade). Having owned the OM1 and EM5ii, I think th

Lumix GX9 vs Fujifilm X-E4
Both are great cameras, and the autofocus on either is perfectly usable. That said, it’s not on the level of more modern systems, or even Sony’s APS-C cameras from the same era like the A6300. Ultimately, the decision should come down to the lenses you plan to use, because that will have a big impac
