I said it does not LOOK unbalanced. I thought it would be like overwhelmed by the little tuna. But it seems quite OK. Haha....hello, if u think this is unbalanced, then look at all the huge Canon lens with the 1Ds. they look even more unbalanced.

Well, looks are one thing, but the lens is a lot heavier than the camera. *shrug* MFT isn't meant to have extremely heavy and long lens anyhow. Can the mount even take the weight?

It's confirmed now...with Class 10 SD card, the at 10 fps, the maximum number of shots at one burst is 17 for RAW AND JPEGS at Large Super Fine Mode. So there is no penalty for the max number of shots if u add JPEGS to the RAW.

Will the performance improve with an even faster SD card? Say 45 or 95 mb/s?

Yah lar...looks one thing...weight another thing. But you DO know that when you have this kind of setup, you do not carry the body right? You carry the lens and let the lens carry the body. The mount only needs to be strong enough to carry the camera body.
 

Should I sell mine in HK during my trip to pay for my hotel room? haha

Guess it will be at Olympus office? Read that they may be organising a hands-on for e-club members.

Yup, agreed. If I were to use the 4/3 lens on m4/3 body, carrying the lens and let the lens carry the body. Mounting on tripod is also not a problem for certain 4/3 lens...50-200 has the tripod mount on lens. Hmmm, 7-14 or even 12-60 are heavy and has no tripod mount on lens. This is may be worrying (at least for me).
 

But if using the strap to hang the camera around the neck, then how?
 

Freaking awesome video! The 5-axis IS really produces steady shots!
 

I tried out the EM-5 and am in love with the camera. Now the eternal wait for the damn camera to arrive in Singapore...
 

i'm usin ep2 with mmf1+ 14-54 II.
it's unbalance, but can live with it.
the oem strap is not good enough, i got a matin neoprane strap, and tat does the trick nicely.
