Today I had a change to test Olympus E-M1 mirrorless DSLR camera coupled with 12-40mm f2.8 pro lens. I must say I’m impressed with build quality and the image quality camera produces. After a few minutes of getting stuck it was quite fun to take pictures with the Olympus E-M1. The camera had also a “underwater” white balance which seems to reproduce coral color quite truthfully under my diy led light.

Minor Lightroom adjustments
The lens manual focus ring had also very nice feel when using the manual mode. I shoot some images with tripod (iso 200) and handheld with various ISOs. The EVF was first a quite a shock (first time I used one) but after a while it seems better than non electric ones. Tilted live view touchscreen lcd is very helpful when using manual focusing. These things are certainly options I’m looking for a new camera. But here is more detailed review of the camera (http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/olympus-om-d-e-m1).
Here is few more images with not so accurate colors (messed with lightroom) :).
