The Olympus OM-D E-M1 is one of the best micro four thirds-system cameras yet, so if this test makes it look like a serious camera, thats because it is. The rugged-looking magnesium-alloy, weather-sealed body has all the features an enthusiast photograph...

Ugly ear pads, Dubious wireless dongle design, A little chunky, Wireless LS30s retail for almost half the price
