OM SYSTEM OLYMPUS OM-5 â A Perfect Camera for Photography on the Go!
I recently got the OM SYSTEM OLYMPUS OM-5 in silver, and Iâm really impressed! This camera is lightweight, compact, and feels solid in handâperfect for on-the-go shooting. The image quality is amazing, and the M.Zuiko Digital lens gives sharp, vibrant photos every time. Itâs super easy to use, whether you’re a beginner or experienced photographer, and the in-body stabilization is a huge plus for sharp, shake-free shots. I also love the flip-out screen for vlogging or selfies. If youâre looking for a versatile, high-performance camera thatâs easy to carry around, this one is a great choice!

Top Mid-Tier Camera
I’ve used almost every brand and the OM-5 is the best interchangeable lens camera I’ve owned in some time. It has a great suite of computational photography modes that other brands haven’t bothered with. The weather sealing is the best in its class; great for my outdoor adventures. And it feels good in my hands with a nice button/dial layout. I came to M43 from Fuji-land; I wanted a camera that was as small as an X100 with interchangeable lenses, better weather sealing, IBIS, and more.The Micro Four Thirds sensor of the OM-5 is excellent; I print landscapes up to 16 x 20 and the quality is identical to APS-C and full frame up to that size. I also love the 12-45mm f/4 pro kit lens; razor sharp and good close focus. Paired with a small prime lens or two, the OM-5 is a marvelous everyday carry camera because its so light you’ll never feel like leaving it at home! I take more photos than ever thanks to how light my bag is with this camera.

Best m43 camera anywhere near its price
You can read professional reviews of what’t inside this. In its price range, although I think I got it on sale, this is the best m43 option for most people who are not convinced that more expensive gear means better images.The other guys’ m43 near this price range have a bizarre hybrid focus system that once you push it you will see the issues. The phase type focus in this may not be the world’s best but its a step up.The camera is well made, weather sealed (not waterproof) and yields excellent raw images (I have not shot a jpeg with any dSLR in many years so no opinion). It has some computational goodies, like stacked focus with appropriate lens, hi resolution mode and neutral density if that matters, and records quality non-log 4k video. I’ve been using m43 and ff side by side for more years than I want to admit–the Image Quality to camera heft ratio of m43 is unbeatable, particularly if you are fond of long teles (see comments about focus).The EVF is physically smaller than what you will get in FF so its important to block light coming in around the eye–true for all smaller EVF cameras. Otherwise it has every read-out you can imagine, some of which are even utile.One real knock, sadly common to too many dSLRs, is that the manual seems to have been translated from the original Klingon by a Wookie. You may have to do a web search to find out how to do what you want to do if you can’t penetrate the manual.

less than a year, and a hundred of dead pixels
I bought numerous digital cameras in last twenty years, and all cameras combined didn’t have that many dead pixels as this one that I purchased the most recently.This shows just how bad the quality of the camera is. Not just the sensor, but overall: knobs, latches, buttons do not give this robust feeling when handling the camera.Talking about buttons and knobs, there are too many and they are scattered all over the camera. For a small camera like OM-5 the minimalist approach would be a better idea. I use the camera about once a week and in a year I still didn’t find a good use for all the buttons.There is another huge design flaw that I never saw it being mentioned before. It is about holding the camera. Forget about holding it with a single hand, because it’s impossible to do so without accidentally pressing a few buttons in the process. Among all the unnecessary buttons there is no room to lean the root of the thumb that gives the support when using a single hand.There was so much said about the awful menu system. I don’t understand why not fixing something that so many people complain about.With OM System I learned there are PRO lens without manual focus button. I would be ok with that if I wouldn’t have to spend time by clicking through menus to turn off auto focus.If I compare it to another 20MP camera that I have from a different brand and for the half price, it has better handling and more solid feel than OM-5.The retro look is unfortunately the only thing I can compliment on this camera. Even with all the various features that is not enough.

A wonderful upgrade to the OMD-10 ii.
A few months ago, I finally decided to get a new M43 camera body to replace the Olympus OMD-10 ii. The older camera was working okay, but I wanted to upgrade. It certainly is a better camera overall. Using the same lenses as the OMD, the OM-5 has better images. Perhaps its 20mp vs 16mp, or maybe the computational algorithms better define an image.The images are from a trip to Colorado. The lens for both is the Olympus 40-150mm f/4-5.6 R kit telephoto lens, a very nice inexpensive one.The OM-5 is perfect for travel. There are a lot of features I haven’t used yet.

Como usuario de Canon, esto me maravillo, la técnologÃa y la calidad, superior!!!! Muy contento.

Soy usuario del sistema micro4/3 de Olympus y decidà comprar de la compañÃa sucesora la OM5 por tener un nuevo procesador (el de la EM1MIII) y las funciones de autoenfoque a estrellas y el hand held high resolution que son muy útiles para fotografÃa de vÃa Láctea y campo amplio; aún no la estreno en astro fotografÃa pero ya hice mi primer senderismo con ella, llevar una cámara pequeña, ligera, con capacidad para fotografiar en alta resolución a pulso (50mpx) facilita mucho para ir a cualquier sitio sin mucha carga (¡no necesito trÃpode!). No me gusta que usa carga vÃa cable mini usb y baterÃa bls-50 (tengo dos cámaras Olympus que usan distintas baterÃas y ya ¡me llené de baterÃas y cargadores distintos!), sin embargo vale la pena pues es una cámara resistente a la intemperie (prácticamente no hay otra con sus caracterÃsticas con ipx 53). Anexo las primeras fotografÃas hechas con la OM 5. Muy recomendable

La cámara apenas esta bien, es muy CARA, muchas funciones, relativamente pequeña, botonerÃa completa, ergonomÃa no me gusto es difÃcil de agarrar, sientes que se te cae, falta grip, baterÃa MALA, obsoleto Micro USB, eso si buena APP completa y rápida y se pueden descargar los RAW, estabilizador OK según es el mejor del mercado, si lo creo, sin embargo muchas fotos borrosas y comparado con mi RX100 III con similares velocidades de obturación, resultado a similar cantidad de fotos borrosas (hasta 1/3 de seg), no me gusto el autoenfoque, no detecta fácilmente a las personas, solo de muy cerca y completamente volteando hacia la cámara, pocos puntos de enfoque lo cual ya esta anticuado, no autoenfoque a mascotas ( es en serio ? ) nisiquiera solo en fotos, el lente que viene 12-45 F4 Pro, muy nÃtido pero F4 en un sensor micro 4/3 es ridiculo, completamente ridiculo, ni las cámaras APS-C vienen con KIT F4 normalmetne es F3.5, sirve solo y solo de dÃa, básicamente de noche es inservible para tomar fotos a personas, los colores se estropean por la necesidad de subir el ISO o tienes que tener a la persona como estatua para poder bajar la velocidad de obturación lo cual es igualmente ridiculo. Por otro lado la gente de OM System se ve que quiere recuperar rápido su inversión ya que la cámara ya no trae Flash incluido lo cual es muy necesario considerando que no puedes subir mucho el ISO por el pésimo sensor que trae esta cámara y SI, PESIMO SENSOR, el ruido que produce de noche con ISO arriba de 1600 ya es poco manejable los colores de piel comienzan a distorsionarse y aun con Dennoise ya en ISO 3200 en adelante, hay partes de las imágenes que son tan ruidosas que nisiquiera la IA puede resolver y quedan como cortadas ( un ojo cuadrado de un lado o cosas asà ) la cámara me gusta a pesar todo, sin embargo el sensor no es para nada sofisticado (no es BSI). Comparando mi RX100 III tomando las mismas fotos y exactamente la misma exposición e ISO, se puede notar que la mejorÃa es apenas y solo muy apenas un paso lo cual es inaceptable para una cámara que cuesta 4 y hasta 5 veces mas si se considera el lente nocturno que se tiene que comprar forzadamente como el Leica 15mm 1.7 con el que la usé, es verdad que con este lente mejoró muchÃsimo los colores y las fotos de noche, el ISO se puede mantener relativamente bajo, pero aun asi arriba de ISO 800 ya comienza a notarse el ruido y la falta de nitidez, considero no que vale lo que cuesta la cámara, creo que con un lente Pro F1.2 o F1.4 de Olympus quedarÃa muy bien y todos estos problemas disminuirÃan, sin embargo son lentes carÃsimos, de casi el valor de la propia cámara que ya de por si es muy cara para ser M4/3 de gama media y también son muy grandes, por lo que demerita el hecho que sea M4/3. Esta cámara debió de tener el sensor nuevo de la OM1 para que valiera la pena, aunque no fuera apilado, ya que se nota que ya es viejo el sensor que trae, pero no mas viejo que mi RX100 III y aun asà los resultados son similares, utilizando Denoisse se puede decir que los resultados quedan idénticos, por lo que finalmente tuve que regresarla, es mucho mas grande y costosa y claro muchas funciones interesantes P E R O, es una cámara no ? pues su finalidad es obtener fotos y qué sentido tiene si no son técnicamente mejores que otra de 1/4 del precio. Ya que ni la ergonomÃa me ha gustado prefiero la RX100 que se puede meter en tu bolsa y traerla a donde sea con calidad casi idéntica. No estoy diciendo que la Sony sea mejor, pero por el precio… tal vez si. Si tienes una Sony RX100 y quieres subir de nivel, OM System no es lo que buscas, al menos que te compres la OM1 que evidentemente no es una cámara para ocio y el precio tampoco.

Pensé que como era de importación tardarÃa más en llegar, pero no. En tan solo 4 dÃas ya tenÃa la cámara en mis manos. ¡Excelente!
