Guys, this is not topic about hacks. It is topic about camera.
@Vitaliy_Kiselev exists topic for E-M5 hack?
It just seems stupid that companies such as Olympus and Pentax don't realise what a killing they could be making by putting decent video features in their cameras - they've no separate video product line so have nothing to lose by doing so. Also annoying that Panasonic and Olympus haven't co-ordinated in-body vs. in-lens stabilisation systems, so you get great lenses from Olympus with no stabilisation for hand-held GH2 use.
@oboemaroni I have come to the conclusion that open competition doesn't really exist with large corporates

sorry about that.
One of the things I like about Dpreview is the frame where you can compare 100 percent crops of different cameras. If you Navigate to here http://www.dpreview.com/reviews/fujifilm-x-pro1/23 And plug in, say the E-PL1 and the new Olympus E-M5, what I see is that the new camera does slightly out resolve the E-PL1. But it isn't a huge difference. Both the E-PL1 and the E-M5 see noticeably better than the Fuji. Still, cameras are getting better. I won't buy a new one till I see the GH3.
Some really nice pics with Leica 25/1.4

Took my OM-D for a locations / inspiration scout to the central highlands. Nothing too elaborate. I'm no pixel peeper, but low bitrate makes this camera unusable for serious work: High detail + fast movement totally trashes the footage. But the image stabilization is very interesting. Shooting handheld footage with only this small camera gives you such flexibility and ease that I feel it can really add another dimension to shooting video and you end up doing more shots and finding more creative angles because of it. Don't take this compilation of shots as any indications of the IS - it was just a locations scout :)
Oh, and let's admit it: It's a fashion accessory as well as a camera :)
