I currently have a Nikon gear and hopefully I could sell it for $1300. With that money my plan is to buy a new mirrorless system camera, the question is witch one?
I shoot primary landscape, nature, family shot, low light and some times portrait.You can check my website: Yael's Stuff | photography, high tech and stuff… mainly anything there is to know bout me.
For me, I see 2 options, m43 or NEX.
The camera I would be looking for needs to have the following
From that list, I have found either the Olympus OM-D EM5 or the Sony NEX 7.
The Olympus comes with the 12-50 which seems to be a perfect walk around lens and it can do close up up to 1:3. Though I heard the menus are pretty bad compare to other manufacturer. I'm worried about their menu and about the 4/3 ratio, it seems to me you have to do lots of planning compose your frame if you want to get all the details you want in a print.
The Sony NEX, looks great but doesn't have that much lens selection as m43, though it's improving.
Sadly, I'm 3 hours away for the closest store where I could try those cameras, I'm requesting your help to help me figure which camera could be better and if my worries about the m4/3 and the EM5 are valid or not.
If you know of any other system that would be great, please list them and tell why you think they are good.
Thank you,
Yael
