I've been looking for a camera to replace my aging eos 10d. After lots of reading, I narrowed it down to the nex series, the new k01, and then the omd/em5.
I'd have preferred it had the sony sensor, but oly has always had a knack for squeezing the best out of whatever sensors it uses. Excellent jpeg quality means less post processing (raw). I am buying a camera to take pictures NOW, not at some time in the future when/if lenses are available, so I ruled out the sony.
I really like the k01, but to be honest, the oly presents the complete package including the evf, as well as an established lens base. Pre-ordered the em5/12-50 kit as soon as it became available. Still anxiously awaiting the reviews of the k-01, as it looks like an outstanding package.
