Does anyone have an Olympus M-5 in good condition for sale ? No lens is needed unless it happens to be a Panasonic 35-100mm f 2.8. Thanks.

Suntouched - KEH has two E-M5 models available: one in LN- condition for $339 and the other in Ex+ condition for $328. Both come with battery and charger. KEH also has a LN- E-M5 II available for $729. As an Olympus user myself, I wish you good fortune in your search.

Cameta occasionally has them as refurb at a reasonable price and with a one year warranty. They come up once in a while in b&s photography forums.
Perhaps someone reading your post will contact you with a good one at a reasonable price.
It is still a very good camera from what I have read. Good luck.

I never think about that company- will go there and see. Thanks-
The M-5 is actually a great little camera. Super image quality, effective stabilization, touch screen and weather proof. Pairs well with the 12-40 mm f 2.8 Olympus lens. Anyone looking for a travel camera couldn't ask for much more.

And it has a viewfinder which my (mighty ) E-PL5 does not. So I've been looking at the Pany G7 and GX8 (and waiting to see what the Oly M-1 Mk II will be like ). Otherwise the M-5 Mk II might get my vote.

Yes the M-5 has a VF- a very good one too :) It will be interesting to see the changes in the M-1 Mk II- one thing you can count on is that it will be expensive. But I'm sure it will have some very nice features.

I have an E-M5 with the full battery grip. It is in prime condition. I have not used it much since I got my E-M1. If you are still interested in one let me know.

Maybe :) I wasn't looking for a battery grip but who knows- how much do you want for it? Are you the first owner? Thanks.
PS- I am on the road so might not be able to get back to you till we stop for the night-

$300 to include the body, battery, charger and battery grip. I would ship via UPS.
I am the original owner. Still have the box. I used it for a bit under 1 year and then I got an E-M1. Just use the E-M5 once in a while to keep it operational. I got the E-M1 at the end of 2013. You can go to www.hmoulden.com and choose Herman's Photos and the 2013 menu to see what I did with it.

You may make an offer.

Deciding between the m-5 and m-5 2 now. Really don't want the battery grip after looking at it. Thanks.
BTW- looks like the m-5 was a good fit for you after looking at your web site :)

The M5 2 was a big improvement over the M5. Just let me know if you want this one.
