GearScore™ Verdict — Which should you buy?
Street, Travel & Compact Everyday Shooting — X100T (2014): A polished step between X100S and X100F — the electronic rangefinder OVF mode was unique, and 16MP X-Trans delivers beautiful files at an accessible used price.
Outdoor & Adventure — OM-5 (2022): The toughest camera at this price — IP53 weather sealing and 7.5-stop IBIS built for adventure photographers.
Who should buy what
X100T (2014)
- X100 series enthusiasts who want the rangefinder-era X100 experience at the lowest price
- Street photographers who value the unique hybrid OVF with electronic rangefinder overlay
- Travel photographers who want a compact fixed-lens APS-C camera on a tight budget
- Those drawn to the classic X100 design before the X100F's resolution and joystick upgrade
OM-5 (2022)
- Outdoor and adventure photographers who need a compact, weather-sealed body
- Travellers who want MFT's compact size with pro-level weather protection
- E-M5 III owners upgrading to OM System's improved subject detection
- Photographers who want strong IBIS and rugged build without OM-1 pricing
Quick take: The om-5 has the highest resolution at 20mp; the x100t is the most affordable; only the om-5 is weather sealed. Scroll down for the full spec breakdown.
