EM5 Body and HLD-6
 

Following purchase on this forum of an EM-1 my well cared for EM-5 body and HLD-6 regrettably must go.

Both the EM-5 body and the HLD-6 come with boxes and are in A1 Mint condition. There are no marks on the camera or HLD-6 and a small scratch on the rear display which is outwith the LCD area.

Low Shutter count of just 1601.

The Box is for the EM-5 with a 12-50 lens. The lens is now on my EPL and not included in the sale.

The HLD-6 comes in two parts. One acts as an extra grip making the EM-5 more like an EM-1 to handle. The second part holds the second battery for extended shooting duration and adds a second shutter button.

Hard to believe what these are selling for now - I think I paid something like £1200 for my M5 and grip when it was first released! Good luck with the sale......

Re: EM5 Body and HLD-6
 

I paid about the same for mine in 2013 (from Wex), just the camera, no luxury grip included!
Yes, good luck with the sale.

One of the reasons I never buy new. I wait until the Mk whatever comes out and look out for bargains.

Re: EM5 Body and HLD-6
 

Yup, I'm with you. Have just bought myself a 'new' M1 Mk1...... :)

Re: EM5 Body and HLD-6
 

This is the camera that started it all for Micro Four Thirds in my opinion.

Speaking of "new" prices though: My first digital SLR was a Nikon D100 that cost £1500 and a 1 gig Microdrive "card" was £350 (now a D100 would probably be £60-70 max). I also have a Canon 1DS full frame SLR that I paid £80 for and these were £6995 originally....

Sold on forum.

Glad you found a buyer. As with the others, mine cost me £1149 (E-M5.1, 12-50mm, & grip) but I had been holding out for quite a few years to find the right camera so I went in with a pre-order when it was announced. It cetainly seems to be the camera that turned Olympus around. I just wish they would update the firmware a bit to reward the loyal customers who had faith in the idea.
