TIPA 2011 Award for E5 (Best D-SLR Expert)

this should shut alot of people now :)

Best D-SLR Expert: Olympus E-5

For a very reasonable price, the Olympus E-5 provides benefits that rival those found in some professional SLRs: complete weather-sealing, comprehensive functions, excellent responsiveness, 100% viewfinder, good noise control, dual CF/SD slots, built-in image stabilisation, all in a rugged magnesium-alloy body. Add to this Olympus' Dust Reduction System, which has proven to be among the most effective solutions in the market. The 12.3 Megapixel Live MOS sensor, combined with the 'TruePic V+' image engine produces images that rival competitors with substantially higher pixel counts.

Yeah I think the E5 kinda got a bum rap right from the start. But so did the E3.
I have stitched some panos and had them printed out 18x48 and the details are
Incredible. Just how much IQ does one need anyway? I think DSLRs are unjustly
judged by noise levels at high ISOs.
I think the E3 is going to turn out to be a cult classic just like the E1. Olympus has gotten so good I may never upgrade. I don't need anymore IQ.
