Sad to hear it bro. Hope u got the extended insurance from courts like i did.

extended warranty or insurance?..
does it cover accidents like this?

 

[As7eroidS]

So sorry to hear that bro. hope will be back working and won't costs much.

For such case, extended insurance cover that?

As far as i was told by the salesperson, it does. That why i thought for awhile before buying it. Im accident prone type so i think it will be good for me to have it. But honestly have no idea if it works as per what im told. Lol

Yup. The ultimate lazy man's camera.

 

[zapp!]

Yup used it recently for a concert setting. It was quite funny, shooting beside the big boys (i have DSLR btw). It did wonders for the weight challenge. But AF hunted a bit during challenging light situations. Press to shoot on the LCD was amusing. Like what microcosm said, lazy man shooting sia

Oled screen went blank, flicker, blank. Can still take photos with evf. The rest of the camera still working like normal.

An update on my friends OM-D with OLED screen issue after shower. Olympus replaced OLED under warranty. No cost to him. Total down time 5 days.

Weather sealed. Just like cars are sealed from weather. But not water proof ... cannot drive car into water like submarine ... ditto OM-D.
Friend said did not immerse into water. But OLED screen not functioning. The rest of the camera functions normally.

Yup. Even u have a fully weather sealed camera, the person holding it is not.

Fogging is quite normal... even slr vf fog up when the camera is in cold weather and suddenly brought in a warm area...

No, all are at same price. But please note all silver kits come with black 12-50mm lens as default.
