That started well before the E-M5. Base ISO went from 100 to 200 starting with 
the E-PL2*. Dpreview reported reduced DR 
at 100 with the earlier Pen bodies. (As with 50 on the 5D.)

As the need for very low ISO is usually only in bright light/direct sun, one 
might then be better off with an ND filter, 
anyway.

* The dpreview test is wrong on this point. It says:

• Auto : ISO 200 - 6400
• Manual: ISO 100 - 6400

But mine has no ISO 100 that I can find. I think they just copied over from the 
E-PL1, which does start at 100 in Manual 
Mode.
