OM-D E-M1X

You'll probably want a camera with PDAF focusing. So, an E-M1/1.2/1.3, or a very-used OM-1. If you don't mind changing brands, the Panasonic G9 II and the GH7 have PDAF, but even used will be out of your budget. If you want to impress all the other sports dads, get an E-M1X ;) Personally, I'd look f

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

To answer your title, the E-m1 mk II might be slightly more affordable than the E-m1x. I think it's the best bang for the buck. That said, considering your uses, I'd totally make the jump to an om-1 mk I or g9ii. Then it depends what lenses you own and many other factors

I mean that's kind of the second big advantage of small sensors, it's not unspoken about. But it sure is nice. Olympus outdid themselves and also shot themselves in the foot when they released the E-M1 mark II in late 2016 with so much stuff packed in it. It was so good that people looked at the E-M

This is good to know and thank you. I agree that OM System's weather sealing is industry leading! I had the E-M1X on a very heavy Alaska downpour and sleet for 5 hrs and after I dried everything, the 1X is dry as a bone inside. So yeah, I'm keeping the MFT!

Well personally, I would not get an E-M10.4 simply because the autofocus is only contrast detection. You might be able to get decent results sometimes but it's a bit of a gamble. I would look towards phase detection bodies instead, which fortunately there are plenty. Some options to consider : - E-M

if you want something with good AF on a budget, the E-M1 mark II should be pretty nice. Phase detection AF and everything, doesn't have subject detection but the zone focus modes (especially 5x5) work very well. Otherwise the cheapest with bird subject detection AF is the E-M1X or OM-1 (the OM-1 is

I don’t like those cameras — I like the E-M1X because I like cameras with an integrated battery grip. Beyond the E-M1X, the only ones I’m interested in are the OM-5 and OM-3 silver color

One word: diversify. At this point I have almost no brand loyalty and because of this, I’ve found myself being able to pick up a new camera and being able to immediately use it. The only camera that gave me a run for my money was the E-M1X from OM System, that was a bit of a learning curve. So the l

Resolution is a lot lower than what you get out of the 10bit mode. What happens is that for some reason the 8bit mode uses either a line skipped or pixel binned readout of the sensor, which leads to the video looking like barely 4K, having much worse dynamic range etc. The 10bit video uses an oversa
