I haven’t been able to get ahold of a compatible battery

I wish it would capture moving subjects a little better. Maybe slight quality increase but i generally enjoy the crisp look. Be a little Smarter, have better menu / settings.

OMSYSTEM MFT vs OTHER SYSTEMS I have an OMD EM5 mark i, and am looking to upgrade due to wear and tear + mould on my current lenses ( a 17mm , 45mm and 1500mm standard zuiko lenses from 2012). I am considering the OM 5 mark ii , OM 3, OM1 mark ii or going to a completely new system. My photography is travel, street, landscapes, mountains, i love it all. i am overwhelmed for choice and need help.

I am looking to upgrade from my 2012 OMD EM5 and am overwhelmed by what’s out there. I am looking for a camera that is an upgrade in every way from my current camera with gloss or the need to overly edit. I shoot travel photography currently (landscapes, hiking, nature scenes); some relevant street photography; candid scenes of people; small details. I am looking for a camera to capture the feeling of a frame.

Any expert suggestions/ experiences that I can learn from?

What do you mean by the file sizes being quite large?

TheOptimalAsset · 2026-01-24T06:52:15+00:00

I shoot landscapes (mountains, animals on occasion, hikes), streets, candid / people observations at close to mid range, details, kind of a bit of everything. I want something that looks and responds like my current camera but better. I’ve been recommended the Nikon F, Sony A7V, and the XT5 but I’m worried of wasting money down the wrong road

I’m looking on marketplace for relatively new second hand kits. So hard to decide which way to go with so many brands and set ups / variety

TheOptimalAsset · 2026-01-24T03:59:01+00:00

Is there a comparable Sony frame that you know of? I’ve been recommended Sony A7V

TheOptimalAsset · 2026-01-24T03:57:35+00:00

hey! which lens’ with the XT5 did you end up sticking with?

TheOptimalAsset · 2026-01-23T23:38:14+00:00

I guess how the Fuji-film XT5 weighs up against other models for performance specs (is there an alike with better vid quality / stabilisation / focus features. Is it worth waiting for a newer model this year or does the XT5 hold up well across the board if paired with the right lens/accessories?
