Review: Fabulous general purpose camera and lens. Punch well above their weight. - Bought this camera and lens in the Black Friday sale 15 months ago. Bit of a learning curve as it was my first mirrorless and first MFT. I’ve got to grips with it over the past year and am amazed at how much it can do and how sharp and versatile the 12-45 f4 lens is. The camera feels good in the hands, is small enough to go in a handbag but sturdy enough for medium sized wildlife lenses, and has so many useful features. Great on the go out and about, and equally good shooting tethered for still life and macro. Surprised at how well it does in low light when coupled with a fast lens. I can’t quite believe how small, light and high quality the Olympus/OMS lenses are. When bought in the periodic cashback/seasonal promotions they are also relatively inexpensive. The SOOC JPEGs are absolutely excellent once you’ve customised your general picture settings to suit your taste. If you get caught in a tricky situation and end up having to edit your photo, the amount of data that can be recovered from the RAW files is quite amazing. Shooting tethered via the OI.SHARE app is wonderful. Any niggles? No dealbreakers. The MicroUSB charging port is fiddly, but I just bought a charger and spare batteries so I don’t have to use it. The tracking autofocus functions are not brilliant for distant wildlife, as compared to the OM5’s big brothers. I love this camera and cannot see myself ever needing to upgrade. Don’t know why OMS market it as an outdoor camera when in fact it’s a very competent all rounder that can produce professional standard images as well as general everyday photos.
Review: Awesome … almost - Make no mistake, this is a fantastic camera from the newly named OM Systems but with a bit more effort it could have been awesome. I'm only an amateur photographer and I've been shooting with Olympus for a few years and my main camera is an O-M-D-E 1 mk 2 with a 12-100 f4. This is a bulky setup (by M43 standards) and I wanted a smaller travel camera. This new, enthusiast-range OM5 is an upgrade to the already excellent O-M-D-E 5 mk3 fits the bill perfectly. It's small and lightweight, being made of plastic, rather than metal, yet it still feels solid in my hand. Courtesy of a new processor you now get 50mp handheld hi-res, a built-in 4 stop ND filter, improved AF and up to 7.5 stops of stabilisation (all the features found on their earlier flagship camera, the O-M-D-E 1 mk 3). I bought mine with the 12-45 f4 Pro lens, which is simply superb. This is all brilliant, yet I can't help feeling slightly cheated and wonder if I could have saved a lot of money by buying a used O-M-D-E 5 mk3 in like new condition. For those new to 'Olympus' cameras they were recently taken over by a conglomerate and renamed OM Systems. They then totally reworked their flagship, professional camera, the O-M-D-E 1 mk 3, with a new EVF, sensor, processor and very importantly, a redesigned, easier to navigate menu and launched it as the OM1. Unfortunately, the OM5 has none of these upgrades and is physically identical to the O-M-D-E 5 mk3: body, viewfinder, rear LCD, controls, battery, menu, etc are all the same. For costs, I can understand not upgrading the physical controls but at least they could have added the new menu system as their current one is notoriously difficult to navigate (stick with it as it does make sense eventually). To me, this feature alone would have been the unique marker of a brand new company, yet they've not bothered. And they no longer put their superb little removable flash unit in the box, nor is there a separate charger, just a lead to charge the battery via the camera, which isn’t USB-C and takes forever. However, the battery life is fairly poor anyway so it's worth looking on desertcart for a couple of spare batteries and a charger for under £25 Regardless of these slight niggles, my new setup suits my purposes exactly, which is the main reason for buying it. All in all, the OM5 is a five-star camera which I'm happy to own.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ It's much better than the 5 designation indicates
*by I***D on 28 July 2023*

Don't confuse the OM Systems OM-5 with the Olympus OM-D E-M5 despite it being nearly identical. It's got much improved stabilisation and computational functions including hand-held 50MP high res (80MP on a tripod) which creates a true .ORF large raw file in-camera - takes a few seconds, but worth it when desirable. It has an excellent EVF and is ergonomically good, with a secure grip on a lightweight body. The quality of the 20MP raw files is outstanding and with the latest Adobe processing, high ISO noise is not an issue at all. Colour, as ever previously with Olympus, is excellent. The 12-45mm lens may not have the superficial appeal of the 12-40mm 2.8, but it's just as well weather sealed (camera and lens together meeting IP53 standards) and very sharp across the zoom range, corner to corner, even at f/4 - it also offers 1:4 scale, at 45mm with a decent working distance, equal to half life-size on a full frame camera. Since MFT works so well for close and macro work, and focus stacking adds to this, it's far more versatile than my Sony full frame kit. With a Prime Day deal this was an essential for planned travel.
