Good job putting the camera on its paces, Doug.
Lots of OM-D future owners are drooling at the moment.

Wonderful shots, loved the results. How about keeping it at ISO3200 indoors instead of auto-ISO (blurs sometimes devastate the picture)? The new generation sensors can easily handle 3200 until colors start to "bleach" afterwards. At worst case apply some NR or use Topaz.. This OM-D is a marvel for AF and image stabilization too..

I try to use auto-iso when I'm not too worried about either noise or blur...when I wanted blur I definitely set the ISO lower, and when I wanted to stop action I set it on 3200. Probably what you're seeing in this small set is my taste in photographs. There are photos without blur.

The stabilization is great. Some of those blur shots were done with fairly long exposures (1/3 of a second or even 1/2) with a simple monopod, which is also how I got the high up shot (just set a self time and hoist her up there, try to frame through the LCD, titled down.)

Ha! Don't be afraid to push buttons, you can always reset to factory settings if it doesn't work out! I would also highly recommend the DPreview user's guide to the EM5.
