dhso22 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Look at the impressive set of new features in the latestfirmware update for the Olympus E-M1. They evencall it "DOWNLOAD YOUR NEW CAMERA."It makes you wonder how much cameras would improveover time if manufacturers took firmware updates seriouslyand were generous about it. http://www.getolympus.com/upgrade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgreszcz Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I'm going to update my e-m5 II later on as it adds a few features. If they just worked a bit more on improving the video quality to better match the stills quality, and maybe reduced the video crop a bit (as well as allowing shutter/aperture changes using the dials while recording, this camera would be a dream.There was a discussion previously about Sony/Panasonic colours vs Fuji/canon. I've always enjoyed the Olympus JPEG output and colours. Nice looking natural skin tones and good white balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marco Tecno Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Impressive! I really love the idea of focus bracketing. I've been asking for this for about one year, to be implemented in my samsung nx1, but samsung never listened and oly took the idea. Good for them and for you users.

Jimbo Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Man, what a great firmware update. I love my Olympus pro zooms and would love to buy an Olympus body to go with them, but alas I cannot give up the Panasonic video quality. Maybe the next models will tip the balance for me.

Maybe the next models will tip the balance for me.Olympus really does a good job with innovation like the wifi app/tethering, live composite and live time, IBIS, good lenses with manual clutch, focus bracketing, excellent touch screen, high-resolution mode. Rumour has it that they are working on some new faster prime lenses.I'm glad they are finally focusing on video too.My update went OK on my E-M5II, now I just have to reconfigure all the settings that get wiped during a firmware upgrade...
