    The Olympus is great on paper, but like all MFT bodies, it's hobbled by tne size of its sensor. Until there's a step change in sensor construction, it's just not big enough for lower light use, unless you are very tolerant of noise and missing details. Max iso in practice is 800. Fuji is a better bet in my view, although the x-t1 did have an issue with the black rubber peeling off.

    Great attitude, nice, soft window light. Excellent.

    My phone had a 4K screen and a better color reproduction than my deasktop PC. And after transferring images from my camera, the touch screen lets me zoom into details to check focus. They are getting better all the time.

    Another vote for the 27mm pancake from me. Small, light and sharp. Lack of aperture ring is a shame, but I can get by on a trip with just this lens.

    It's a very nice portrait, but I don't see anything technically special. The Fuji X-E1 body used is well know for producing pleasing skin tones (better than the newer X-E2) and the 56mm lens is a great 'portrait lens' that has a wide enough aperture to give a nice out of focus background. Then there's a large, soft natural light source and a pretty model.

    Nice framing and a unique composition and pose. I like the warmth to tne lighting on the models skin and tbe contrast with the pure white backlighting.

    Impressively sharp for a moving bird. Nice smooth background.

    Just the right depth of field to keep the model in focus, whilst avoiding distractions from the background, really nice, even lighting, smooth black and white tones.

    The portrait example you like all use professional lighting and support - as other posters have said. But they also look heavily retouched, either with Photoshop or something like Portrait Pro that can do the retouching on a batch basis. Personally I prefer a more natural look, but if the examples in your link is the look you want, then you'll need to develop post production skills. But if you want a more realistic look, then you can create great portraits with basic kit. Window light from tbe side is good, ideally a shaded widow or with a net curtain so it's not too harsh. Then a reflector to lift shadows. And a lens with a wide aperture to achieve the blurred background effect. Just my view - but I think you should try to get as close as possible to the look you want in camera, then try photoshop later for fine retouching once you've got the lighting and exposure.
