OM System, for VERY LITTLE MORE MONEY, could have given the OM5 mk2 a similar magnesium body as my old EM5 It's not a matter of money. It's a matter of weight. They've intentionally designed E-M5 mk3 / OM-5 to be as lightweight as possible. If you want a heavier camera, just buy the OM-1 or OM-3.

I have had a similar kind of experience with M43. I have been shooting Fujifilm X mount since 2021 (using Nikon DSLRs before that) and I switched back to Nikon with a Z6 in 2023 (it was also my first full frame mirrorless after using a full frame D700 years ago). I thought that was it, that I would

Hey I have an OM3 and it was my first camera in the MFT ecosystem. Paired it with the excellent 12-40 f2.8 for really good weather sealing. I've been out in really heavy snow storms in Canada and Scandinavian rain without issues. Added the 40-150 f2.8 for action and now I'm looking at the 60mm macro

Indeed, it will be very interesting to see what the OM1 mark III brings to the table. A friend showed me his new E-M5 in July 2012, during the first stop of my summer holidays that year. I'd given up on bringing my Canon 5D and the heavy 24-70 / 70-200 f/2.8 zooms (long since sold) and was traveling
