OM-D E-M1X

There's very little difference in AF performance between all IMX27X based cameras (that's E-M5 III, OM-5, OM-5 II, E-M1 II, E-M1 III and E-M1X). The E-M1X is the only one with unique processing dedicated to subject detection but with only 121 AF points it is still primitive compared to modern camera

Did you hold both in hand? I'd recommend doing that. G9 is as big as it gets for MFT (well, with exception for E-M1X), and OM-5 is almost pocketable.

As your not really in to wildlife I would look at an E-M1 iii, its a great body with decent AF performance, the E-M1X although amongst my favourite MFT bodies is probably going to inhibit you due to its weight. If you could find an original OM-1 for a good price then I would seriously think about on

The G9ii seems like the logical choice, as long as you can deal with the size of the body. If the body doesn't agree with your hands (the original G9 got into a violent disagreement with me), a used E-M1X (big, but so well thought out that it feels like a much lighter camera), E-M1.3, or OM-1 all ha

I agree, Olympus did a good job of keeping up or bettering FX bodies of the same time period, they are still decent now as you have said with a lot of features that newer FX bodies are still catching up with. Yes the OM-1 ii is a better body and the AF is very good as are all of the computational ex

OM-D E-M1X, rugged and durable, it’s one of the best micro 4/3 cameras for wildlife photography. Telephoto lenses are smaller and cheaper too because the small square sensor size essentially acts as a 2x teleconverter, saving space.

I used to own those lenses and ran them on an E-M1X and E-M1mkII. The size is great, but the performance per dollar isn’t there. The Oly 7-14 is good, the Nikon 12-28 is better. The 12-40 is fine, but at f/11 for landscapes, not much different over the 16-50 kit lens (or the Panasonic 12-32) and the

You can get them used for around US$600 and pretty much Mint Condition for US$900 which is in your price range. It’s a hell of a camera take a lo

OM-1 . If I remember correctly the E-M1X was a precursor to the E-M1 III. It's basically just a E-M1 III + grip with additional features optimized for wildlife shooting. The OM-1 is essentially an E-M1 IV. The OM-1 would have the latest features so that'd be the best camera to use to get the most mo

The E-M1X is a beast. Performance wise, it sits pretty much in the middle between the E-M1 mark II and E-M1 mark III. All 3 have the same sensor, same burst rate, same video specs, etc however the E-M1X introduced hand held high res modes, which isn't present in the E-M1ii. It also has AI deep learn
