Can't complain about how the E-M5 handles the same thing. Straight into the 
sun.

Catching that famous little flash,

I know sunrises/sets are cliched, but darn they are pretty! I used this one to 
see how the E-M5 would handle it.

Most of the images in this little gallery are just as they came out of ACR 
defaults for the camera. Some vignetting 
corrected on a couple, a little adjustment to a couple, but all exposures as 
the camera did it at -0.3 EV, but one.

One is at -1 EV. I think I must have done that to darken the water, but the one 
next to it at -0.3 would have done as well.

I like the colors, too.
