  1. According to the specs, the newer cameras are faster. But keep in mind that the actual focusing speed depends on multiple factors: light level, particular lens, various possible focusing parameters, etc.
  2. The 14-42 mm is the kit lens. The really good lens is the 12-40 mm: weather sealed and constant aperture.
  3. B&H gives you the opportunity to search by lens mount (camera type), focal length, and sort by price low to high.
  4. Are you creating pictures or creating numbers and graphs?
  5. The Olympus technology is 7 years more advanced and you are 7 years more experienced. Are you shooting on paper or are you creating images?
  6. Nikon D7100 was introduced in 2013. Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark IV was introduced in 2020. You don't want to know why the Olympus is better. You want to know why the Nikon is not as good. Interesting.
  7. So Olympus will protect my exposure for me? That sounds really GREAT!!
  8. I don't understand your problem. In menu item "gear/D2", there is a setting "Live View Boost". When set "OFF", the EVF follows the exposure from under to over, etc. If my subject is under or over exposed, I adjust the exposure properly. When shooting in a studio using flash and manual exposure, the EVF is dark before the flash fires. So I choose to set "Live View Boost" "ON", in order to be able to see and compose my image. The mileage of a Panasonic user may vary.
  9. Not only does shooting through a window affect sharpness but also the angle of the shot: straight through/perpendicular vs shooting obliquely at something off to the side.
  10. I agree with most of the above. I preferred Portraiture by Imagenomic. (Am I remembering this correctly?)
  11. Aspect ratio affects the JPG. RAW will not be changed. Firmware is up to version 4. On my cameras there are two resets: basic and full. Most USB cables have data function. Either your cable will work or it won't. I included a link to firmware update instructions in my post above.
  12. The amount of data captured is determined by the sensor, not the lens. Also the SD card records the data captured by the sensor and has nothing to do with the lens. Have you pressed the <OK> button and tried to change JPG/RAW via the LCD screen display? Yes, there have been a lot of firmware updates for the EM1. You will need to download and install Olympus Workspace to your computer. Then the updates are accessed via a menu option. The software will tell you if a firmware update is required for your new lens. OM-D E-M1 | Olympus
  13. I'm sure that you can find a pdf version on line.
