I think Olympus has a great underrated camera design

I agree!

I'm totaly agree with you way of thinking : old gears still do very good job for a sweat price. I just received an Olympus e-m5 mk2 in a very good shape for less than 300 euros. It's realy a little Olympus e-m1 mk2, same functions but smaller and more functions than i can use.

Great review! My EM 1 actually arrived today haha 😂 battery is charging while I watched this video. I got it dirt cheap and I can't wait to try it out.

The EM-5 MK II is my all time favorite Olympus Camera. 📷 But the EM-1 is still way ahead of its time. Shame that OM Systems isn’t swinging for the fences in terms of innovation.

From my read of today's camera market OM System is just as innovative as current tech allows, and is still out pacing other makers. They have by far the best IBIS - still - and the most advanced computational photography tech, and the best rated weatherproofing available from anyone. For good or bad, digital cameras are now a relatively mature technology - at least until some breakthrough sensor is developed - and there just aren't the opportunities for "break through" cameras like ten years ago when the likes of the E-M5 and E-M1 really were revolutionary. No one is making such advances anymore, and for that reason.

​@@AllDay3004 With all respect I strongly disagree - OM System should not add any FF cameras whatsoever. Why not? Well, first, the last thing the world needs is yet another FF camera system. Are there there already not too many such cameras in a shrinking market? Secondly, OM Digital Solutions is the smallest of all the major camera manufactures and simply does not have the resources to spend diluting their brand when they need instead to upgrade the E-M10 and PEN series, and keep leading in technology. They just can't afford to go head-to-head with Nikon/Canon/Sony/Fuji in the FF market. And, thirdly, they are budling a brand around the inherent size and weight advantages of the MFT format, and with their industry-leading environmental sealing, are already the most portable and rugged camera system for any out-of-studio photography. To launch a FF line would be as much as to say "we were lying to you about MFT". Every format has it's advantages and disadvantages relative to some other format. For me, MFT is a perfect fit and I need and want OMDS to keep the MFT faith as Panasonic certainly isn't. When they used a FF body for the G9II that was a very troubling signal to me that they are not committed enough to MFT to build a proper body for one of their two flagship cameras.

I had two original E-M1s (still have one of them) and it's all you say it is, and truly is an amazing value for the money today. I have to say, though, that I think the Olympus E-M1 Mk II is probably one of, if not the best, overall bang for the buck used camera available today. It has several major upgrades over the Mk I, including a 20mp sensor, much faster processor, High Res 80Mp capability, and much more. And, clean examples doesn't cost all that much more than the Mk I. It might make for an interesting video if you were to compare the two. Thanks for an excellent presentation.

@@gregfeeler6910 Hmmm, I tried using a pair at some weddings, and they just kept missing the target, at least 30% of the time. No matter what I set the AF sensitivity or AF point/shape/tracking to. Using Olympus 12-40/2.8 and Panasonic 35-200/2.8 V1. Also, the camera has a terrible color cast in the shadows in as little as 2 stops at base ISO, and it comes through SOOC at around ISO 6400, RAW or JPG. Very ugly color that can't be fixed without jumping through lots of hoops. An absolute deal killer for volume work. This isn't a lemon, either, as I've asked on mu-43, and checked samples throughout the internet, and they all, and really ANY 20MP m4/3 sensor ever, have heavy shadow color casts. It's why I gave up the system, because the superior (in IQ, at least) 16MP sensors died out. They weren't perfect with color either, but you could easily solve the consistent color cast they had with a simple EXIF edit. The 20MP sensors have rotating color casts that change every few ISOs or even every ISO, in the higher ranges. OG E-M1, though, had clean color throughout. The OG also has cleaner DR as far as you can push it, close to APS-C of the time, and isn't any worse at high ISO. Images are able to be easily edited without worrying about odd colors showing up. The only other recent m4/3 camera to come close is the G9 II, which acts similarly, but has faster speed and higher overall quality. The same sensor should be in the GH7, as well.

The price of a minty used one was from MPB or WEX was about £380.00 ~ £415.00. I decided against it as the fixed lens was very limiting for my photography.

I had to get used to the very light shutter button though - at first, I thought it was faulty, but apparently, many pros prefer a light shutter button as it reduces potential camera shake.

I have two of them and they are wonderful and easy to use and walk about with. They are indeed robust. At an airshow I was in the process of changing lenses and a rather large child ran into me at full tilt. The camera came out of my hand and landed on the tarmac on one of the strap lugs and the lens hood of the 40-150 Pro. The hood broke and there was a crack in the body around the lug. The camera and lens both still functioned perfectly. I fixed the crack with two part epoxy to seal the crack and bought a new hood

I ordered mine early on from B&H and still using it along with my E-M5ii.

Thank you for this video. You are right about the EMD1. I’ve seen this body at ~$300. Cheap as chips. The body is virtually indestructible. Legendary IBIS. Very pleasing, to my eyes, colors though a bit vibrant vs. accurate. Instead I purchased an EMD1Mii for $400. For ~$100 more some very important upgrades. My favorite is the PDAF. This body seems a good compromise between price and features. I’m sorry for going yes but………on you. If M43 is a system you want to use or explore, the EMD1 or Mii is an inexpensive way to try the system out. At the prices these bodies are being bought & sold for, you can try the system for a small amount of money. Don’t like it? You can sell these bodies for virtually the same as you bought them for. Plus the Olympus lenses are very good. Minor gripe about both bodies. The on/off switch is on the left side of the top plate. Olympus ran out of real estate on the right side so where else could they place the on/off switch? That being said, for me, an awkward place to place that switch. Since we only use the switch for on & off it isn’t the end of the world as we know it. No camera is perfect. Mask On Nurse Marty (Ret)

Beware the sticking shutter on them. My second one did it all the time and was exchanged for another which seems to be free of the malady. Apart from that, it's a great little camera and the IBIS at last brings me back to the Pentaxes I was using a decade ago.

I tested this camera a short while - finally chose the Samsung NX1, back in the days - but it sits absolutely perfect in the hand :)

I love micro 4/3rds but wish they had lenses with an aperture ring similar to fugi.

Hi Tom, I owned this camera, purchased it brand new back in the day. This omd Em1 original has one serious flaw, the left lug will eventually come off when you least expect it. This can cost you more than the camera body alone if a valuable lens is attached. Olympus made up for this design flaw with the much better omd E-M1 mark II in 2017, get that camera instead, you will thank me later.

In effetti mi è caduta con montato il pesante 7-14mm f:4 Zuiko (adattato perché dedicato alle reflex 4/3), proprio perché mi si è staccato il capocorda sinistro. Poiché mi era già caduta in precedenza, pensavo che fosse stato a causa di quell'evento. Comunque la fotocamera e l'ottica funzionano sebbene il mirino evf ha colori con una dominante calda strana mentre una volta scattata la foto, il risultato è ottimo come ero abituato. La ghiera in alto non funziona più, un altro punto debole che alcuni possessori hanno riscontrato nel tempo. Nel complesso, rimane la più compatta professionale Olympus: la mia è dotata di una piccola impugnatura che regala lo spessore giusto per riuscire ad impugnarla con tutta la mano. Comunque ho anche una Panasonic G9 e fotografo molto di più con la vecchia reflex Olympus E-5: mi piace di più vedere attraverso un mirino ottico.

Even the OM-1 mk II still uses a 20MP sensor with very similar noise levels and DR values as the E-M1ii) 2nd gen camera of both brands are becoming actual sweet spots, and the "all I would ever need" camera for a LOT of people while the 1st gen camera gets re-discovered as a forgotten gem.

Same here, hindsight that my first good digicam was an Olympus. I spent far too much money on Sony A and E mount cameras and lenses. I got into Minolta MD lenses and wanted to adapt to modern digicam, but the 1 x +1.1% adaptors were no solution on the A mount. On the E-mount A6000, hard to get sharp images due to camera/handshake. Looked into options, and Bingo! there was my old friend Olympus. Bought a used Em5 Mk II and an adaptor. I'm hooked on Olympus M43, enter in the MD focal length and Voila! IBIS on a sweet old Manual Focus lens. Found a used Em1 mk I for chump change and found a camera that can last me the rest of my life. I use the Em5 II for product shots and the Em1 for walk around shooting. It has it's warts, but the Em1 is the MOST comfortable camera I've ever used, even compared to the Sony A700 (nee Minolta 7D). It just feels right in hand.

I just bought one …. have a hunch the files will have a nicer quality than later cameras … it’s built like a tank

I still want to get one of this model. It look very gorgeous back in the day but Olympus is never my top priority to buy though I'd like it on my collection.

Olympus made a tons of impressive cameras, I still don't know why they aren't more popular than bigger brands here in Indonesia, it's just really rare to find E-M1 in good condition for a cheap price. Maybe because most people will go for Canon or Nikon (back in the days, mirrorless aren't really popular in here, the popularity of mirrorless started to rise when Canon released the EOS M3). Mostly the prices for well used EM-1 is around ~400$/IDR 6.500.000, still quite affordable for such crazy specs.

"Back in the day". I felt like this camera just came out! Apparently it's been 11 years that I've been wanting to buy a camera.

Did they sort out the banding issues that happened at high ISO with the E-M5 when using the Panasonic 20mm 1.7 for the E-M1? That's why I had to change to the 14mm 2.5 and the Olympus 17mm 1.8 when I had my E-M5. Recently rebought the E-M5 and unfortunately it's one with the sticky shutter at high shutter speeds. That's okay, I'll just use it in low light with the amazing IBIS :)

Olympus changed to CMOS sensors way before the original E-M5 and E-M1 were introduced. I owned examples of the early CCD Four Thirds bodies and most of everything from Olympus & OM Systems since, and in my opinion all this hype about CCD sensors having some special looks is just smoke and mirrors. Any creditable camera company strives for accurate color reproduction irrespective of the sensor in use. None that I know of, certainly no Olympus, were trying to emulate some "film look" as they were striving to advance digital camera technology. Just my thoughts on this. Peace.

One of my two main cameras is my EM5 Mark 2 and I love my Olympus cameras. Much like my Pentax you get alot more for your money than you do with the bigger manufacturers. I am not sure about the future of the brand though. OM Systems is owned by a company whose business model is more about flipping formerly failing businesses or product divisions and not really about being a serious player in any particular market. For example they took over the Vaio line of laptops that was formerly Sony. They brought that product line back to profitability but most people barely know that product line is even still around.

what an amazing naming system

what is the great wide lens for this body according to the photojournalist work

Olympus dials are seriously the best.

I’ve just had an E-M1 Mk2 by accident for a few days (was trying to hire the new OM-1 Mk2 but got too excited too quickly and pressed the wrong button). I’m blown away by how good it is, but what really stood out is how light it is. With the 12-40 f2.8 Pro on the front it came in at 989g vs 1400g for my X-H2 with the 16-55 f2.8, and 1650g for the A7iv with the 24-70 GM. Image quality is mega for an ‘old’ camera, and whilst it obviously can’t keep up with the 40.2mp sensor in the Fuji, or the AF of the Sony, it packs a hell of a punch for what it costs. Great review, and given my recent experience, I may just have to pick one up.

Video: (at 8:54) the HDMI socket is of limited use, the mark one has no real time video feed. It’s for playback only. The mark 2 does have this, I use one as my web cam. First world problems 😅. But otherwise I agree, the mark one is an awesome camera, it was my daily driver for the last ten years. Great with the wide selection of four thirds and micro four thirds lenses, plus adapted SLR lenses. I upgraded to a mark 3 as my mark one had developed some irritating foibles.

il 20mm è davvero incredibile per la qualità e compattezza. Amo l'angolo di campo, meglio del 17mm e del 25mm. Ha comunque il difetto di avere una messa a fuoco lenta e... rumorosa quando cerca il piano di messa a fuoco. Se non fossero dei limiti nelle tue fotografie, allora trovane uno usato.

The E-M1 is no doubt an amazing camera. I would however pick the mark ii or iii. I do a lot of very dark conditions concert photography, where I need high ISO. With the free software OM Workspace from OM-System, I can use AI Noise Reduction to improve the quality of my high ISO photos to a point, where I don't need expensive photo editing software at all. But, the AI Noise Reduction in OM Workspace only works with RAW files from the E-M5 iii, E-M1 ii, E-M1 iii, E-M1X, OM-5, OM-1 and OM-1 ii. I'm currently using an E-M5 iii, and my experiences with the AI Noise Reduction in OM Workspace are so good, I'm saving up for an E-M1 iii in as good condition as possible as it seems to be the best option for my specific needs.

Olympus cameras look great. The EM5 mk2 with the 17mm f1.8 looks as good as the x100vi.

I'm angry with you because i couldn't find this camera at this price here in Brazil!! Kidding lol Thanks for the content brother!

I’ve been tempted to replace my 1st gen E-M1 with new flagships EVERY YEAR throughout the decade, and yet, every time I go out and shoot photos, my E-M1 proved itself that I don’t need to

It's a bit of a gut punch that MPB doesn't ship to Norway but does to Denmark and Sweden 🙃

$300 in the US $1900 in Australia.

bought it as second camera,thanks

Unfortunately i sold my m1 mk iii but it was my favorite camera.

Hey man, i have like $50 is there any camera i can buy to carry daily? The tinier the better. Even if its a compact camera its good for me.

Olympus e-pl1. I found one for $60. Most of the Pen e-pl1-3 and e-p1-3 will have broken IBIS, but that has not been a problem. They also start getting noisy around 1600 ISO. But still great for EDC with small Chinese lenses, kit lenses, and adapted film lenses. Fun little cameras.

@@JeffreyJohnsonC oh that's a cool one I just check it out haven't found a listing yet. But thanks!👍 what I found so far is Nikon Coolpix s01 but it's expensive. Also Sony DSC-J10, Olympus D705, Nikon E4600 and Nikon Nikon S200. They are a bit over budget all but I reckon I can get a discount. Do you know if any of these are worth it?

Thats what i like about mpb their prices arents as expensive as the other companies

Nice video, i have 3 EM10 bodies, great cameras

did I see an image of Peterborough City Centre?

I’d spring for the extra cost of the mark ii

Great camera

Agree 🙌🏻☺️

Olympus / OMDS is underrated

Cool trail pack camera for its durability and small size. This and the Pentax are the ultimate trail or back pack camera.

I have a Pen F that I love

No MPB to Australia/NZ... 😟

Somehow I was never happy with my M43 equipment (OM-10 MkIII, EM-5 Mk II, ...). I always had the feeling that the color of the images looked "flat", skies had a tendency to look cyan, dynamic range and low light capabilities were limited. Yes, you can partially compensate that in raw editing, but my Sony, Nikon and Canon full frame cameras never had these issues. All in all I prefer having lower noise, better color and more dynamic range - even if I have to carry heavier equipment. So sorry, but M43 is definitively not for me.

Nothing wrong with the color. Never had a cyan sky. Maybe you just had a dud.

Guys get this camera before the price goes up coz of the review. Happened to the og omd m5

Got lucky in 2022, I got one of these with a battery grip for $215

OMDEM1 OMG

Mark 2 even better around £469 ..just bought one from MBP..😎

I would argue the EM-1 II is the better bet at around 500$.

I just picked up a mkii with 12-40 f2.8 for $750. In mint condition with only 5k on the shutter. You can add a 25mm prime and the 40-150r and be around $1000 and have a really versatile kit that fits in a lunchbox.

How to tell an influencer try to mark up the second hand market so they can get rid of their old camera at an insane price.

Tempting! Mk ii has 50 fps with tracking autofocus and auto exposure, impressive. Heck of a price drop from original.

thanks,bought yesterday for 200 euro

I hope you enjoy it!

Problem of the Olympus cameras... Not much reason to upgrade within the range 😉. Got an em10 mark1 and every em10 and em5 after it made me go 'mweh'. The em1 was the only one to do it (got em1 mark3 now, ditching my slt65 and a7mark2).

I’ve had my eye on this camera as my first “pro level” purchase. Just picked it up in a bundle in mint condition with a lens, 5 batteries, case & strap for a STEAL ($150)

While the E-M1 is definitely an awesome camera, I'd still say the E-M5 Mark II is better. It's most of the times cheaper and has even better features. The only thing is the E-M1 has phase detect. If you don't see yourself needing phase detect, I'd go to the E-M5 II. However, if you do need phase detect, E-M1 is one of the best budget(-ish) solutions available.

I use the OM5 MK3 and I absolutely love it 🥰

I love this camera, but the batteries suck. Don’t last long. I have to carry a handful of batteries just for a day’s shoot.
