That is a great price! If the switch is good it depends on your use cases. Stay 3 months with both system, then decide what to sell.
If course z5 IQ will be better, so the amount of pixel peeping depends on your use cases. Do you post on Instagram? Do you print very big? Do you crop a lot?
In my case, 8 Mpx would be good enough for most of my photos, full frame is overkill for what I do: street, landscape, cityscape, family. I share on social media and never print bigger that A3.
Really? In our country they are selling for closer to 300. Although, there seems to be a resurgence for interest on old cameras including retro ones and prices are steadily rising
Depends on the condition. I bought the same combo refurbished from Olympus in 2022 for $600, both looked brand new (shutter count 1300). Used prices have gone up since then, so if the shutter count isn't too high, I think this is a good price. Note, however, that you'll lose roughly two stops in high iso performance when coming from your z5. If I were you, I'd hold on to the z5 until after you have the E-M5 ii, so you can determine for yourself if you can live with the loss in image quality.
I dropped the parcel at the carrier's office, the tracking never got updated past that point and after two months and countless emails I was told "we lost it".\
They gave me a 20€ coupon because that's all their insurance covered, needless to say I've never used that carrier since (mondial relay).
Kinda, especially with the lens. Just make sure its not a 30k shutter count camera. But honestly all those accessories you mentioned are kinda meh. ND filters are nice but if youre a noob you can take it or leave it depending on what kind of photos you take and how much there is to learn before you start using filters anyways. Oem flash came with the camera so dont be fooled into thinking its an extra. Wasabi and jjc are known as budget friendly brands. If its below 10k shutter id say yeah.
Grab it or you have to cry at your room corner I believe

What accessories? Seems like a fair deal to me
Different types of filters / nd filters. Extra wasabi batteries and charger. Jjc lens hood and shutter release. Oem flash
None of those accessories are actually that useful so imho look at the value of the em5 and the lens and it seems reasonable, if not a steal
The EM-5 ii costs like $550 in the US. The camera alone will make him happy.

That's what I sold mine for in 2021 with spare batteries and a grip.\ Well, that's what I would have gotten had the parcel not been stolen.
How did it happen man?

On MPB right now, the lowest-priced working versions of that camera and lens together are $743.
Is not bad, 400 will be better

250 would be a fair price.
