Same goes for Chuck which brings up a glitch in the E-M5... it's too easy to accidentally move the focus point.
Fortunately, it's obvious that you did so when you try to take a shot but you still have to correct it on the fly. Is
the E-M1 better in that respect?
I don't know about the E-M1. It seems to be part of the µ4/3 consortium spec., "Lets all have a feature that will drive
most users crazy!", as all the Pens and the two Pannys I have all have the same issue.
Accidentally touch the left 'button' function of the rear wheel or touch the screen at some unspecified moment and
POOF!, the focus point moves to a random place.
Learning to hold the cameras carefully may help. A firmware fix to turn the focal point move function off seems
unfortunately unlikely. Somebody out there in manufacturer land must love it.
If The E-M1 fixes this, I might find it more appealing, in spite of the huge grip and paying for PD AF I'll never use.
The E-PM2 still has the problem, so the E-PL5 must, too.
