p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Dead screen on Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mark II

Anyone else out there experience a dead screen on a brand new E-M5?

I got a black one and flipped the screen to take a photo and it died. Viewfinder still works. Thought it was an anomaly and returned it for a silver one ... same thing. Was shooting my kids, used what I thought was appropriate force to move the screen around and it stopped working too.

Anyone else experience this?

My E-M1's are all practically bullet-proof ... I have 3 of them and no problems AT ALL!

Are you sure you're not just activating the eye sensor with your body? Or is it permanently dead?

I had 2 EM-1s (now1) and both had two be sent in because of rear dial failures which is quite common. Had EM-5 which had the common rear LCD frame crack.

Had mine (black) for about a month, just coming back from field trip and no problem at all.
