Dear Daniel, your input about the GX85 is excellent ! It also appeals to those who favor the “rangefinder” style over the “prism” type of camera. I must admit, I’ve also been tempted on multiple occasions to purchase either the GX85 or the GX7. Thank you for contributing !

Hello Daniel, I found your article about the E-M10 in Guadeloupe quite fascinating. The m4/3 system tends to be overlooked by many photographers, but your article showcased its merits, and I appreciated reading about your satisfaction with this camera.

Furthermore, your response to my article aligns with my thoughts entirely. Hopefully, many others will come across your article and recognize that the E-M10 and E-M5 are not just suitable as backup or secondary cameras but can serve as excellent primary cameras as well.

Thank you for your valuable contribution !
Have a great day !

Just to add a Panasonic counterpart of your suggestions, I will propose the Panasonic Lumix GX85 as an another fine “secondary” camera model. Still available new at a cut selling price in combination of two kit zoom lenses, this Lumix model is also a very pleasant compact photo device with IBIS stabilisation.

In that sense all Olympus OM-D E-M series are very competent choices as a primary or second camera.
I did myself the experience this spring during a monthly stay in Guadeloupe with a Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark III and its compactness alongside with its performance (stabilization system, color rendering, art effects) have contributed to a success journey. Sure there are some soft spots (like autofocus, bizarre menu as usual, cramped interface) in using a very compact camera model but their none intrusive aspect for the photographer and his/her subject is very appreciated especially for travel/urban/casual picture sessions.
A secondary camera model may become a “first” option when you are facing different photographic opportunities and the Olympus OM-D E-M series are very companions in any cases.
Have a good day!
