The E5 performs a bit better in that respect I think. It is also much easier to use since the OVF does not introduce any delay, shooting with the EM1 is a bit rolling a dice and hoping that the subject is still in frame throughout the sequence (usually not the case).
Hi Toni,
The E5 AF is snappier and more accurate in my opinion.
Niels,Might the focusing area be a bit on the large size?
Secondly, do you have the latest firmware update installed? it does allow (from what I have read about, do not have an oly camera myself) a focus bracketing mode, have you accidentally turned that on?

Hi Katran,Hi Tord,
Yes, this is true, but only in good light.
In low light, E-M1 is a rocket, much faster than E-5.
Olympus recently released a new firmware and all OMD cameras got nice functions.
One of these functions are focus-stacking and focus-bracketing.
I found a page with macro photos made with these functions. I rarely do macro, but these photos are really impressive:

Hi Ammadoux,you have said here exactly what i could not express with my poor English.
yes the E5 never failed me, when the light is right always giving me the best details, with my old Sigma 50-500 mm that i use mainly MF.
i wish i can afford the 300mm f2.8 prime.
was not very excited about the expected m4/3 300mm f 4 until i tried the 40-150mm pro zoom and i got this, in my first shooting with it.
maybe i will keep on dreaming about another DSLR, one that have direct mount for m4/3 lenses.
