I’ll not buy it before the dxomark verdict is out.
This comment basically tells me you’re a gadget freak and not a photographer. A photographer wouldn’t care one whit about whether their camera had a certain number on some synthetic metric by a testing house. They’d care what the images looked like, the features that could make their shooting work, and how easy and comfortable it was to operate and get the shot.
The image quality samples for the camera are out there…either the camera is good enough for your work or its not, and if DxO comes out and says that it’s got horrible this or great that, it’s not going to change my opinion of the camera one iota, since I know what I SEE, and I know how the E-M5 helps me get the shots I’m after. Anything else is just measurbating.

This comment basically tells me you’re a forum freak and not a photographer. A photographer wouldn’t care one whit about whether their forum had a certain number of some comments by other forum freaks. They’d care what the images looked like, the opinions that could make their shooting work, and how easy and comfortable it was to submit and share their comments.
The comment quality samples for the forum are out there… either the forum is good enough for your work or its not, and if comment man comes out and says that it’s got horrible this or great that, it’s not going to change my opinion of the forum one iota, since I know what I SEE, and I know how the 43rumors helps me get the shots I’m after. Anything else is just a distraction.
We could care less if you buy the camera. We know it’s a great camera.
Has anyone in the US received their OM-D rebate from Olympus? Just curious…it seems like a VERY long wait for the refund.
I got mine 2 weeks ago.
I just checked the rebate website AGAIN (LOL!) and it now says that my “response” (it best be a check!) has been mailed an that I should receive it by August 15th????? So I guess the rebate clearing house sent it out on a swimming pack mule by way of New Zealand. I guess I should get something (?) in the mail soon.
Why not? DXO will make it better?
Camera is suddenly becoming available now that the rebate is over? I think I’ll wait to see what the pro OM-D is like.
Who cares anymore, the OMD is old hat now. Panasonic now raised the bar, with a camera that doesn’t need a grip, has a silent shutter and 60p video for slomo, which means, the GH3 is going to leave the current OMD owners seriously wanting. I just sold mine. Bring on the GH3 rumors. 🙂
Wanting what?
If I could buy a camera that sells for less money because it doesn’t shoot video, I’d buy two.
If you have an Oly it’s the next best thing to having no video, right? 😉
What happened to Mr. Reeee? Are you his evil twin?
We’re BOTH evil. 😉
Now..now…I am a still photographer. I never wanted or asked for video in any of my cameras. If it was all gone today I would be very happy because I would pay less for my cameras. No doubt!!!!!!
Seriously,..I dont think the new camera from Panasonic,. G5 & GH3 would surpase the IQ of the old OM-D,.forget about GF5 .less forget about the basic different sensor manufactured.
Also when GH3 coming The New OM-D PRO is on the corner
For the one who want A SILENT SHUTTER,. really had no clue about the OM–D
Cheers
Better video or not, The electronic shutter is something I’ve been waiting for for a long time. Global shutter would have be nice, but I’ll settle for this.
