Websites are now daily publishing new E-M5 tests and FourThirdsUser (Click here) published a very interesting ISO comparison between the E-M5 and E-P3. Just look at the the 12800 ISO comparison (here the E-M5 and here the E-P3). The difference between the two cameras is impressive! At least one stop, probably even a tiny bit more! What do you think? After seeing the RAW files, and now these JPEG comparison I assume that the E-M5 is on his way to (may) become the m43 camera with the best JPEG quality. I like that E-M5 and you?

More news:
And the french website Focus Numerique (Click here) posted a new interview with Mr. Terada (Bit no big news to find here). More E-M5 images samples at Onfoto (russia) and Letsgodigital (Click here). Updated preview at DSLRmagazine (spanish) and new preview at Pocket-Lint (Click here). And a very nice report ahs been publsihed by Gakuranman (Click here).

Must be better than my EPL1….

Sorry for being obvious, but it’s not only high iso performance what matters.

But yes, I think that EM-5 is a beautiful (in all respects) camera.

#

Sort of the same question here, especially: does it beat the GH2 at the lowest ISO setting? That’s where MFT cameras still need to improve IMHO. I’m going to wait for the GH3 anyway because I need an articulating display.

#

Also, what if you see a similar difference between the GF3 and the GX1 at ISO 6400? Then it might not be that impressive.

#
anonymous said 3 months ago:

Well it better be a damn lot better than E-P3. Panasonic 16mp sensor is like 2 stops better already!

#
anonymous said 3 months ago:

From Olympus marketing point of view, this would justify the price.

We sold an overpriced EP-3, this is far better than that, so pay up! LOL!

Any news on the GH-3? That should be better than the GH-2 which is on par or better than the EM-5.

So what?! This is the minim minimorum expected from a m43 camera released in 2012. I’m rather courious whether it can beats so easily the currently best image quality MFT camera, the GX1 as well or not.

#
anonymous said 3 months ago:

Definitely better than my E-520, that’s for sure.

#
anonymous said 3 months ago:

The E-M5 impressed me so much that I’ve now got it pre-ordered, and am 10th one on the list at the store. Roll on April!

#

E-M5 is nice but wow this picture really shows how ridiculously long that kit zoom is…

#

Pocket Lint listed under “bad” in their review of the E-M5:
number of features might be too overwhelming …lol I can’t think of one of the too many features that I won’t be using they all look useful and fun

#

As told , EM5 might edged GX but unlikely to outclass it . I more interested in the one so called very high end camera from panasonic & heard that is not GH3 . Any rumour about this mysterious camera ?
