      1. I’ve got the E-P5 too and I like it very much 🙂
        E-M1 has PDAF and other improvements, I want to see if they make sense for me.

  1. There is not one Best Buy within 200 miles of me that has one in stock. Ship to Store Only!!! Even my Olympus Cert brick & Mortar store will not carry the new M1. If I can’t feel it hold it and mount my 35-100 – 150mm lens on it you lost a sale or two. A word to the Oly Reps if you have a cert Oly dealer that refuses to carry the M1 take away the cert. They have lost plenty of sales just based on not having a display unit on the counter. I wonder how may E-5 sales were lost due to this practice, I was one.

    1. Of course, they’re not going to put it in the stores. They barely highlight Sony’s mirror-less cameras, and they hid Panasonic’s when they had those.

      They want to sell something with a markup, like their deal on the unlocked 16 GB Google Nexus 5, for an extra $350.

  2. Admin, can you add some keywords for posts to go into moderation? For example “tiny” would be a good keyword, or “tiny sensor”.
    a) it’s not tiny, it’s actuall pretty big
    b) yes there are bigger ones out there, but in most cases not needed
    c) you can soon get a SONY A7 as second camera if you need a big one, but
    d) you will still enjoy your MFT gear 🙂

  3. Meanwhile in Oz, still no deliveries that I have heard about … Olympus AU had a promotion that expired 31/10, looks like that was a cheap promotion.

  4. Metabones states that as of 30th Oct 2013, their Speedbooster is NOT compatible with the Oly OM-D EM-1. Yes, you read it right!

      1. Yeah. I went to their website to purchase one and saw that message. Even though I don’t own a E1, I will wait.

    1. I’m guessing…

      1) telecentricity incompatible with microlens of em-1? too much vignetting?
      2) adapter interference with em-1 body?

      1. “1) telecentricity incompatible with microlens of em-1? too much vignetting?”

        That makes no sense, as almost all original 4/3 lenses are telecentric.
