Perhaps more importantly, through, this camera is an EXCELLENT option for those moving into more sophisticated photography and wish to understand how to take great photos

I have been using the camera over the past few days and found the options and controls to be fantastic

The E-M10 provided a cheaper alternative for her that still gives excellent photo options

Lets be honest there are better options in terms of cameras and customer service elsewhere so you should look and do the same when considering Olympus.

I feel like there are better options out there such as Fuji and Panasonic.

Great price for what you get++ Good resale options when you are ready to upgrade at some future point++ Fantastic learning tool that also takes great photos++ Incredibly fun to use (and don't discount this

Panasonic, Tamron, and Sigma also have several lenses available for this system in addition to the options available from Olympus themselves.
