Olympus OM-D E-M1 II Full Review

20/02/2017 By Mathieu

We first saw it five months ago at Photokina, had the chance to put it through its paces during a dedicated press event in Spain, pitched it against other mirrorless cameras on our comparison website (including its predecessor, the E-M1) and now we’ve finally published our complete review of the Olympus OM-D E-M1 II.

As with all our latest reviews, this full review has been produced in video format. However, we’ve also included a summary of our findings and sample images in this article.

Techart Pro review – Leica M to Sony E-mount Autofocus adapter

I remember the excitement we felt being there amongst some of the most important journalists, photographers and bloggers; the curiosity of learning how events like this work; the short sleeps; the impromptu stop at a service station the following night to publish the article. At the time, lots of things were new to us. Today MirrorLessons has grown more mature and there are other two websites, plus a YouTube channel to keep it company.
