About the Used Olympus OM-D E-M1X
How well does the AF system perform?
On the E-M1X, Olympus has re-shaped the entire the AF system. Built around the OM-D E-M1 Mark II's 121-point all-cross-type on-chip Phase Detection Autofocus sensor; the camera works with a restructured and drastically enhanced algorithm. The camera takes advantage of the AF info of recorded images and offers great tracking capabilities, particularly with fast moving and unpredictable subjects making this camera perfect for sports, nature and more.
The AF system features many useful modes. This includes a range of AF targetting settings, plus customised autofocus area positions - working in landscape or portrait. These are quickly attainable with the help of the multi selection joystick on the camera.
Intelligent subject detection allows the camera to automatically identify a single subject (sports, vehicles etc) and will track and focus the optimum area - doing the hard work for you, while you compose your best work.
Image Quality and Performace
20.4 megapixels are delivered by a Live MOS sensor which gives you superb speed and great image quality on the E-M1X. The sensor has a new coating which gives improved sensitivity plus two TruPicVIII high speed imaging processors improve key performance elements like recovery time and start up time. Not only does the design of having dual processors add to the camera's speed performace; they also support dual high performance USH-II SD card slots and also unlock the capabilities needed for the latest functionalities like Live ND, High Res Shot and Intelligent Subject Detection Autfocus.
Live ND Mode
A new Live ND function will incorporate the effect of a slow shutter speed as though you're using an ND filter. You can review the scene live in the viewfinder and edit the effect before capturing your image. The effect has 5 level settings: ND2 (equivalent to one shutter speed step), ND4 (2 steps), ND8 (3 steps), ND16 (4 steps), and ND32 (5 steps).
High Res Shot Mode
With Olympus' High Res Shot Mode, you can capture up to 80 megapixel images. In Tripod High Res mode, the camera will capture a set of images when mounted to a tripod, which are then combined into a high resolution file. A new feature from Olympus is the Handheld High Res Shot Mode - taking away the bulk and inconvenience of a tripod, this mode opens up the mode to more situations and gives blur-free images, equivalent to those shot on a 50mp sensor!
Pro Capture Mode
A highly acclaimed feature which has been brought over from the E-M1 Mark II is Pro Capture Mode - retroactively recording up to 35 frames when the shutter button has been released, this makes it perfect for high speed shooting scenarios.
Leaps in Stabilization
A newly develeoped gyro sensor gives the camera a strong claim to the world's best compensation performance. When combined with an M.Zukio IS PRO lens, the technology gives the 5-axis sync IS the ability to compensate for 7.5 approx. shutter speed steps - this eliminates the requirement for a tripod in many situations.
Shooting video on the E-M1X
Further to the camera's excellent capability for shooting stills, the E-M1X is a great camera for shooting video and boasts many of the extra features required by videographers to produce their best work.
- Shoot in ultra-high Cinema 4K (C4K, 4096 x 2160) movie format, it gives you the current highest recording resolution to date (at launch), and flexibility when in post production stages
- The superb stabilization brought by the 5-axis IS and electronic stabilization will refine any hand held 4K and C4K video
- Three levels of movement compensation give flexible stabilization depending on your own posture and style of shooting
- The camera will counter against varying lighting conditions found in documentary or nature shooting scenarios. OM-Log400 will deliver lossless shadow details and highlight any blowouts giving much greater freedom for any colour grading creativity
- Capture 120 fps in Full HD resolution opening opportunities to capture cinematic footage with slow motion perception.
- Field sensors on the camera including GPS, temperature, manometer and a compass give detailed shooting information to your images including latitude, longitude, temperature, elevation and direction of movement.
- The anti-flicker function will automatically detect flicker frequencies from artificial lighting - this activates the shutter when at peak brightness and minimises uneven colouring and exposure between frames. Flicker scan will supress striped patterns is silent mode and when shooting movies - giving you a lot more freedom and ease when adjusting your shutter speeds.
Does the E-M1X work well in low light?
When using autofocus, the E-M1X will work with low intensity limits, all the way down to -6 EV steps; making this a great camera in many darker situations.
How comfortable is the E-M1X to use?
Olympus promised to deliver a camera design which gave the 'most compact and lightweight camera system in its class' - the E-M1X is truly evident of this promise; weighing in at just 997g (with two batteries and SD cards) and without compromise as the camera is fully loaded with up to date imaging tech.
The camera has a fixed vertical grip which gives the user the ultimate comfort shooting at all angles, while carefully positioned controls compliment the clever and ergonomic design of the body. The layout of the controls, levers and buttons have been designed to enable easy and uncompromised use of the best in class optical viewfinder which boasts a 0.83x (35mm equivalent) level of magnification.
The camera's controls feature a highly functional multi selector joystick. This is designed to be accessed when shooting horizontally or vertically meaning you can quickly change position while focusing on the task at hand. Furthermore, a newly designed C-lock lever gives the option of locking the controls when working vertically.
What lenses are available for the OM-D E-M1X?
The M.Zukio lens range from Olympus offers photographers a superb set of compact system lenses to work with this camera. Covering a broad range of fields and uses - they make this camera perfect for nature, sports and documentary photography; while delivering excellent image quality in the end result. Olympus, which has been crafting lenses to the highest of standards since 1936 focus on carefully constructing each of their lenses with precision, high-quality imaging and speed at the centre of each design for professionals and enthusiasts alike.

How durable is the E-M1X?
Olympus has always had a reputation for excellent weather protection in its OM-D range, with unsurpassable design in weatherproof sealing. The standards have been upscaled for the E-M1X, which has been tested more rigorously than IPX1 with Olympus' own in-house splash-proofing tests. The result? They are offering a camera which claims to have the world's best weatherproofing allowing you to shoot in more extreme conditions than ever before. Due to its design, the camera is sealed for protection even with connected accessories.
An improved Super Sonic Wave Filter (SSWF) on the dust reduction system features an exceptional coating which will vibrate at 30,000 times a second. This vastly reduces any danger of debris getting into the key components and causing havoc by ruining your images.
The camera is also built to dissipate heat when capturing video - the camera itself boasts a shutter operation lifetime of 400,000 times.
