inov8 battery for Oly EM5 now shipping from Amazon UK, approx £28, fully compatible quality battery that uses the Oly charger, no doubt the price will come down in time. I’ll get mine in the next few days and feedback if there are any issues.
When can we buy it without the kit lenses? 2013?
I bought mine body-only from a local retailer in San Francisco (Fireside Camera, http://www.firesidecamera.com/) for Amazon’s price ($999).
I have an enthusiastic synthetic eyesight for detail and can
anticipate difficulties prior to they occur.
