I have to admit that we didn't see the Olympus E-M1X coming. Like many of you, we've been waiting for a replacement to the popular enthusiast-grade E-M5 Mark II, which turns 4 years old this month! But once we started hearing about some of the tricks up the E-M1X's sleeve, we certainly had reason to smile and become intrigued, especially as camera reviewers.
Foremost among our initial questions were things like "Can it really achieve 7.5 stops of Sync I.S.?" <> "Can it actually pull off Handheld High Res shots?" <> "What the heck is 'Live ND' and how on earth does it work?" ...You get the point. In between our lab testing, and once it was upgraded to full production-grade firmware, I was able to steal some time with the E-M1X and head for the coast to start seeing if I could answer some of these questions for you (and for ourselves!)
