Hi Tom it’s long lost me.
I liked the look of this for an OM systems walkabout camera.
The only issue to me is that the top plate is plastic and because I owned and loved my EM1-X I can’t do plastic!
Features wise it’s definitely good and imam sure it will sell well
Kind regards
Mark
Hi Mark,
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the new OM PEN camera. Every product has its own value proposition, and each photographer will make their own decision on whether to invest in a new body or not.
