Stabilization system is audible. EVF is not built-in. Lacks a standard mic input. Focus peaking and magnification could be better implemented. Wi-Fi could use more features
Heavier than some mirrorless models
Weak flash
Below average battery life

A bit pricey compared to the similar EM5

Autofocus not as smart as we would have expected
Myriad features and customization options may be too confusing for some users
Noise filter aggressively removes detail from JPEG images
Limited WiFi features. Expensive for a mirrorless camera. Some onscreen touch icons are pretty small. Video options aren't as advanced as similarly priced cameras

Abstract: 스마트폰이 상향평준화된 하드웨어 스펙으로 차별화 포인트를 카메라 기능으로 잡으면서 고화소 이미지 센서와 컴팩트 디카 수준의 촬영 기능을 제공하고 있다. 무선 인터넷과 SNS, 다양한 앱을 쓸 수 있는 스마트폰의 기능을 살려 사진을 찍고 바로 편집해서 공유하면서 컴팩트 디지털 카메라 시장을 빠르게 잠식하고 있다.컴팩트 디카와 전문가용 DSLR 카메라 사이에 위치한 미러리스 카메라 시장은 아직까지 성장세를 보이고 있지만 컴팩트 디카가 사라지게 되면 스마트 ...
