IM the first one!
Nice box but Fuji x packaging is nicer. If only I have the dough
Do you have $100?
I will sell you the box to my E-M1 after it arrives.
They haven’t shipped in Japan yet.. I was in Yodobashi Camera last night, they didn’t even have a display model yet.
Hmmmm. Me want
I was at 17 street photo this afternoon,.and they said ,.they already sold out all of the E-M1,.damn ,.i was late
hope i got mine next week ,.if nothing’s big happen,.
YUMM!!!! *drool*
This camera is a winner. And will have record sales volume for Oly. And, to all you trolls, it’s not even FF. Hahahahahahahahahaha…
All the recent trolling just reflects their deep insecurity. Maybe large mirror boxes and heavy photo backpacks are not so cool after all? Can’t wait to just get out and use the EM1.
Seriously, record sales volume for m43 is end of life entry models like GF3, E-PM1 when they reach 350$ with kit lens. It’s not high end gear (OM-D, GH3, 75mm f1.8, etc.)
Same for any DSLR or mirrorless system.
If they sell a lot, they may have a record profit, or at least a record exposure in camera stores.
Luckily logic never enters the equation for the mFT faithful, despite the actual data showing a major decline in all mirrorless sales almost everywhere

Waiting for mine from Adorama. š
Got My EM-1 on Oct. 1st:) Now I’m headed to Kuwait:( No Luck…
USA, Cincinnati OH, Received mine (EM1, MMF3, 600R flash) Tuesday October 1st after a call from Roberts Camera in Indianapolis IN on the 30th. Sales manager is a Olympus fan. Drove there and back on Tuesday, so I could use that night. Wonderful!
You must be lucky, they told me they did not get any, and I live next door.
Pre-ordered Sep-12, money drawn from credit card Sep-30. From Olympus web-shop Sweden, via Belgium i guess…. Hoping to see the camera within days though no shops in Sweden have it in stock yet as far as I know. :I
Same story here.
Preordered sep. 16. through Olympus-denmark.
money drawn oct. 2.
waiting is a pain in the…
Got mine 2. Okt from amazon.de.
Hld7 not yet.
Out for shooting this weekend š
Mine is scheduled for EOD delivery. I live in Washington DC. I preordered day one within first 10
mins from adorama.
Wish the 12-40 lens was shipping with, but it’s not.
Just off to pick mine up from WEX photographic.
Thanks.
But I already have my em-5. Actually, two of them.
someone bought it from official european Olympus e-shop?
any way to know something about the order status??
Ordered 9/10 from Olympus USA directly, with the MMF-3 adapter. Received 9/26. I was very surprised it showed so early. I’m even more surprised that so few people have received theirs – maybe most don’t order from Olympus directly?
The same for me, ordered on 9/10, received 9/26. Canceled my preorders from B&H and Amazon afterwards.
Anyone receive theirs from Amazon USA? Probably not. Going to assume those who did order from Amazon will be last to get them.
I ordered mine from Amazon US on Sept. 10, no word yet. Historically, though, B&H seems to ship early, followed by Adorama, then Amazon. Amazon, FWIW, is still quoting 10/14 as their expected “release” date for the EM-1 body, and 10/11 for the battery grip.
I ordered mine from Amazon on September 19. No word on shipment yet. And thats fine. Haven’t sold all my Canon gear yet.
I received mine last Friday Sept 26th. I preorder through a local camera store, Keeble and Schuchat in Palo Alto and happened to be one of the first in line. They received a total of 6 that day. I’m really enjoying taking photos with it. I hope they send the 12-40 2.8 Pro out in a similar manner! š
I like it but too expensive….I think to wait for new FF Sony mirrorless…..1400$ it’s body only is too mutch, Olympus errors to errors in prices…..
What the hell, great packaging, hope the EM-5 box would have been as nice as this one, lol.
Picked up today, ordered 24 July, from LCE, London
Picked mine up last night. Iām first to get one in my city. In fact it was the first and only ‘one’ to be shipped to my city this early. Was out shooting with it today, great little camera but Four Thirds lens focusing does lag a bit behind from my E-5’s in regards to acquisition time. In making comparisons between EM-1 and E-5 on 12-60 and 50-200SWD, the E-5 pulls into focus in one sweep where as the EM-1 tends to make a first sweep (close), second sweep (closer) then a final lock. No where near as bad as on EM-5 and itās really not terrible, but it is noticeable and that is disappointing. Itās just not ideal for fast paced events I guess which I shoot often. IQ is great though so far! Scale from 1-10 in satisfaction I give it a 8.5 from me which is good coming from me, Iām fussy. I think it’ll keep me from re-branding (which I’ve been giving some serious thought). Thanks Oly, but improve FT lens focusing a bit more in the next one please!
Ordered mine from B&H at 7 am on 9/10, but no word yet.
Ordered mine through B&H on September 16. Order status: “On Order”. :/
B&H Ordered on September 10th. No word yet either. Kinda bugs me that they took down the pre-order estimated shipping date. It was 10-4. Which was ahead of the Amazon October 14th ship date. So of course I ordered from them as it would ship sooner. Now they change? Grrrrrrr.
@Jeff I couldn’t agree more! I ordered through B&H for the exact same reason: Their ship date was October 4 vs Amazon’s ship date of October 14. Then it changes! I know better in the future, I guess.
However, it is nice that you don’t have to pay sales tax when you buy from B&H. Saved a bit there.
For the record, I ordered mine from Henry’s Ottawa ( http://henrys.com ) on the day Olympus announced the EM-1. It was in store for me Oct 3rd. Still waiting on the battery grip and 12-40mm though.
It looks like pre-orders from 09/10 are shipping from B&H. Still haven’t heard anything from B&H regarding my 09/16 pre-order.
