p.1 #1 · Sold: Olympus E-P1 w/14-42 lens (2 days old) | |
I ordered this camera hoping it would be a good fit for me as a pocketable compact camera with a larger sensor but after a day, I have concluded it is not. It might be with the pancake lens but with the included 14-42 lens it clearly is not. Another problem is that as it lacks a viewfinder, its weight sort of offsets the value of the sensor-based IS but that is just my opinion. Otherwise it is a fine feature rich camera with usable ISO up to 1600 (3200 and 6400 are way too noisy.). The one video I took looks pretty crisp. One final note: the camera does not use a conventional USB cable to connect to the computer but a proprietary one. I only mention this because, to update firmware, it appears that you MUST do so via the camera-computer connection.
Includes a 14-42 lens and, as a bonus, 1 Sandisk 4gb SDHC card.
