I'll see what the XE2 will be like and at what price then I'll see how it goes. I'm still looking at the nex6 or a Fuji. Sent from my Nexus 7 using SeriousCompacts mobile app

I know the JPG OOC are awesome, which could be the first time I'l shoot jpeg om a camera of that price. But that isn't an issue, I've always shoot RAW and processed my own image.

I'll wait for the XE2 anyway since I won't have the money until November. Does the XM1 have the phase detect AF? Can you easily control the aperture, shutter and ISO on it as well as the XE1?

John, I like direct controls too, reason I was aiming at the Nex 6 in the Sony system. Regarding Fuji, I have been looking the XA1 and I'm sure you are right, they have a great digital signal processing algorithm. I would love a Fuji like the XE1 but I wish I could try one before getting it...

What didn't you like on the nex? What do you prefer on the Fuji? Sent from my Nexus 7 using SeriousCompacts mobile app

I'll have about $1000 once I sell my current camera, so the EM1 and P5 from Olympus are not possible for me. I can get the GX7 or EX1 but I'll be more interested in getting the NEX 6 with several manual lens like the Nikon 300mm f4.5, the Nikon 100mm f4 or the Vivitar 90mm f2.5. I already have...

I'm looking to get a mirrorless in a month and I would like to use old manual lens with it. So the feature of focus peaking sounds more than interesting. How well does it work? Can I use it for wildlife? Can I focus feast with it? Which camera allows this feature? I know Fuji, Sony and the...

Thanks Temo, it's true that lens wise I would prefer the em5, there is more choices. I still find that there is some noise at low ISO on the em5, nothing too bad but still it's there.

Maybe I should also look at the GX7, it's coming up soon, the only downsize is the kit lens (though is the 14-42 any good?) and the fact that you cannot get it in black in the US

yes, that 12-50 is nice for close up but not as sharp as the fuji. I love the way the Fuji camera look but I know the feature of the EM5 would fit me the best with those manual lens. Anyway, maybe I could find a good deal on a EM5 here or on the m4/3 forum. Is the 12-50 sharp enough? I used to...

Thank Gordon, that's a good sum up from some one who used them. I'm really between the XE1 and the EM5. For me, positive of EM5: + IBIS + Weather sealing + Wide variety of lens For me, positive of XE1: + low noise + sharpness + kit lens + love the control on it (can do the same with any other...

yeah, I have a good tripod that gets pretty small to carry around the 12-50 seems nice, it's not that sharp, I'll have to remove the close up feature to get something nice.

I would like a small walk around lens for landscape and nature with possible good close up (1:2 - 1:3 is perfect). A telephoto for wildlife. A fast wide lens for low light landscape. A fast portrait lens (something in the range of 50-90).

I liked the quasi macro function of the 12-50, though it's not as sharp as the 14-45. Once I get my money, which I hope in a month time frame, I'll try to buy equipment from this forum or the one dedicated to the m4/3. Except if I go Fuji,

I want the dial more than the flip screen but for another $100 I think it's worth it. Now the lens...

what's the difference between the PM2 and the EPL5?

Thanks to Everhandy, I'm looking at the EPL5 now which seems to get pictures as good as the OMD, the only thing missing is the EVF, better stabilization, and weatherproof. IF I went with the EPL5, what lens should I buy to get something good. I would need a walk around zoom lens and a telephoto...

Zapatista, why did you sell you XE1? You didn't like or was it more a duplicate of your m4/3 system?

OK, thank you for that. does anyone who wouldn't mind sharing a RAW file from the OMD or even EPL5 in low light condition or having lost of shadows? I'm sure the one I got came from a pre-production model.

have you been shooting RAW or JPEG? I will shoot RAW 99-100% of the time. I'm interested to find out more about the dynamic range between the OMD and EX1. It seems like EX1 is way better than the OMD, though I haven't found any good review that compare both.

I got several RAW files and Lightroom 5 worked with them pretty well, that was my point of getting the RAW files. It's possible that the OMD RAW files where not from the final release of the camera. Les wise, I'm looking ti get 2 good zoom, the rest can be manual lens, so I should be fine.

Yes, the weight of the equipment is the main reason I want to switch to mirrorless. I do lots of landscape and climbing up mountains isn't the most interesting with a heavy backpack. And I love smaller cameras they just look so good (kind of stupid I know). I'll look into the EPL5, it could be...

I'm starting to full in love with the Fuji, the dynamic range looks great and so does the noise level... but no in body stabilization :(

I don't have the money to try a camera or two then buy one, but it's a good thought though. bluzcity, thanks for those pictures, they look good. Are they JPEG or RAW? If RAW which program did you use?

thanks, I'm still reading around about the Fuji E1... looks fun. Too bad I cannot try one just to see. I think I will go with the OMD, it makes more sense for what I need.

better to have noise and a focus picture than the opposite

I shoot RAW 100% of the times, are the RAW files cleaner of just the JPG? Also, found this online, explaining how to save battery and do about 1200 shot per battery on the OMD, scroll to the bottom: How to tweak your Olympus OM-D E-M5 to shoot sports by Jim Huffman | STEVE HUFF PHOTOS . It...

The main interest for me with the Fuji is the low light, if the OMD is has good, then my choice is made!

Thanks for that great info, so OMD it is. That Fuji sensor looks pretty good, I'm interested in learning more about the X E-1 and how fast in can auto focus.

I'm in the US, I print canvas the most but I can crop a bit for 14*11 or 8*10, I think I should be able to find a bigger size. Anyone with a Fuji E-1 around here that could help out? The pictures from it look more than great and it seems like there is a 55-230 coming out at the end of the year...

Thanks! I'm not interested in the GH3, to bulky for me. The GX7 looks interesting but with the amount of money I have I won't be able to get the 12-50 from Olympus. Weather sealing is a great feature as well as the in body stabilization! Regarding the 4/3 ratio, my issue is if I compose my...

I currently have a Nikon gear and hopefully I could sell it for $1300. With that money my plan is to buy a new mirrorless system camera, the question is witch one? I shoot primary landscape, nature, family shot, low light and some times portrait.You can check my website: Yael's Stuff |...

They were on my list to go check

Thanks Kill, What I'm trying to do is sell my entire kit in one shot, camera, 3 lens, flash... and I know that's going to be hard.

Hello, I have been shooting for some time, first with Pentax then Nikon but I'm starting to feel the weight of my equipment and would like to go with something lighter. I shoot mainly landscape and nature with a few city and portrait shoot. Going mirror less makes sense to me even though I...
