Before I give away too many spoilers, let me just state that during the last 4+ months of using the camera, I have gotten deeply attached to it and in some ways, I have made the E-M1 my reference camera for top-notch performance. Although my initial impressions of the controls were not very positive, just using the camera for a couple of days changed my mind and I quickly realized how much better the E-M1 was compared to my older E-M5. Whether you are looking at the superb in-body 5-axis image stabilization, the incredibly fast and accurate autofocus, or the large, super high-resolution electronic viewfinder, the E-M1 in my eyes has become the role model for proper mirrorless camera development. Without a doubt, the Olympus OM-D E-M1 is the culmination of innovation and finest technology, coupled with a beautiful and functional retro design, along with advanced features that are not even found on high-end DSLR camera systems today. Despite the continuous threats and tough competition from larger sensor size cameras on the market, both Olympus and Panasonic have been focusing on innovation as the driving force behind their products, while staying committed to keeping the format small and lightweight. This obviously gives the M43 a competitive advantage over all other mirrorless formats on the market today. As a result, the format enjoys the most selection of lightweight and compact Micro Four Thirds lenses – everything from wide-angle to telephoto options from Olympus, Panasonic and a few third party manufacturers. When it comes to mirrorless cameras, the Micro Four Thirds (M43) format has been out on the market the longest. In fact, the E-M1 is one of the very few freezeproof, splashproof and dustproof interchangeable lens cameras on the market today. Built on the success of the Olympus OM-D E-M5 (which we highly praised), the E-M1 reigns over the OM-D line on a number of features – from the design of the camera and its incredibly fast autofocus system to the advanced shutter mechanism, high-end electronic viewfinder, WiFi and amazing weather sealing options. Standing above all other Olympus mirrorless cameras, the Olympus OM-D E-M1 is a flagship model with the most impressive list of features.
