Great Camera, have shot with Olympus since the 70s, always well designed, light and well built
Olympus always had a leg up on its competition when it came to building smaller lighter cameras designed for the professional starting with the OM-1. When my competitors were buying Nikon's and Canon's, I invested with Olympus, and it was always a good investment. Less expensive, well-made, professional quality and quality optics. This camera is a tank, but its small, light and responds well. It feels really comfortable in my hands, I mean really well like it was designed for my hand. Like anything in digital now, markets are tight, Olympus was sold, but a going concern under a new company. but I hope they keep making cameras because they come to the table with innovation, and a good competitive price.

OLYMPUS OM-D E-M1X is Perfect
I am a semi-professional photographer and have been photographing for over 40 years. I have used Hasselblad, Canon and Olympus (M1 M2) equipment. The OMD M1X is by far the best camera that I have ever used. I was "turned-off" by the initial $3000.00 price tag but when I saw it on Amazon for $1749.00, I purchased it without any hesitation. I have absolutely no regrets - :)

Seller said it was Very Good. I gave it a Like New!
I liked that it had a Shutter count of 849 and the operation up to now has been flawless. I'm sorry there was no Manual. I use one I found Onlne but it is not user friendly, Tell me where I can buy one.This is my first Mirrorless camera. I'll be 89 in October.

Does everything it is intended to do and more.
Perfect size, weight, balance, etc… great quality. There is an amazing amount of customizable settings and most of all, it just works.

If you use EVF, looks elsewhere. Horrible viewfinder ruined otherwise great camera.
Photography is my hobby for about 20 years or so. I moved from DSLR to mirrorless about 3 years ago, when mirrorless became on par or better than DSLR. I currently own Sony A7R3, Canon EOS R5, and Panasonic G9 + a lot of lenses.I purchased this Olympus camera with Olympus 300mm f4 PRO lens as I needed light(er than FF) camera for wildlife photography to be used whenever I don't want / can't carry my full frame Canon plus huge 500mm f4 lens, and I decided to go with Olympus body to have dual stabilization with Olympus lens.So whole thing about mirrorless is that you need good EVF enjoy the camera. For more than 5 years all major brands are using high resolution OLED EVF. Except Olympus, I guess., which I learned the hard way. This is their top, most recent model, and when I got it, I felt like it was 2015 all over again and I was using Sony Nex 6. I can't believe Olympus put this crappy, outdated, cheap low-res LCD based EVF in their flagship camera. Even 3 years old (and half the price) Panasonic G9 has OLED and double the resolution. Not to mention other cameras you can buy for this money.So, to sum it up, the thing about the mirrorless is that you need decent EVF to use the camera. Good EVF does not make a camera good, but bad EVF can ruin even the best camera. And this is the case here. This really could be great camera for everyone who need to use light equipment (compared to FF of course), but with old EVF with hardly any contrast, it's like buying great sport car and paint the windshield black. I’ve returned it with huge regret that such a nice idea for good camera was ruined by Olympus for no good reason – except greed maybe.

Soft mechanism with very accurate RAW shooting
Even though mavens claim there is no advantage to buying this over the last omd, when they reduced the price by 1/3 to $2000 I couldn’t resist even though I have nearly every omd they made. Without going into detail this camera is used for commercial listings and I’ve had problems with matching color. I shoot in RAW and the live view finder seems to catch reality color. This necessitates very little if any color correction with Lightroom. And the exposure “click” sounds like aSwiss mechanism. I’ve yet to see what this camera can do but it seems to be very user friendly.

Wonderful camera
Liked the first one so much, I bought a second.Great all rounder! I shoot a lot of car shows, railsubjects and landscapes.Built like a tank but quite fast and compact.
