Anyway, it's NOT a dSLR

Which is why i recomend to use DILC instead

(DILC - Digital interchangable Lens Camera)

And this is not an EVIL camera either.

this camera is exp..it's gonna sell at around Rm3.7k according to star newspaper

3799 actually - but it comes with the kit zoom lens, kit pancake lens and the viewfinder.

for the price, this is quite good. Not a bargain, but quite good.

So what? SLR is not everything. Just take a look at the Magnum photographers. U think they all use SLRs?



It's not expensive. U wanna see expensive, take a look at Sigma DP2 n Leica D-Lux 4. Those r expensive considering they're only P&S cams.

hmm just saw the iso 1600 and 3200 from EP-1 very impressive... arghh cant wait to get 1 ...

this could be THE camera for underwater photography..

physically small, full time live view, good high iso performance..

add underwater casing, UWA, macro, and TTL strobe... that's an underwater dream machine.

unless you got 2 sets if not i dont see an ultra wide angle lens and a macro lens together...

everyone...have fun
Broken PEN

They're even advertising this camera on Fly FM now.

Of course la - Phat Fabes and Ben was part of the advert campaign

yes confirm can..Panasonic G1 is also m 4/3 gang..so all lens between them can be swap and use..

If not mistaken, you'll need an adapter to use the other lenses other than original E-P1 lenses. correct me if I'm wrong on this...

You're wrong dear. All m4/3rd no need adapter. You only need adapter for 4/3rd lens (those e-series olympus lens).

for example now i am using Olympus E3 4/3 format. i can swap lens with panasonic L10 user. No adapter require.

so for EP-1 they can also swap lens with G1 user cause both also micro 4/3 format.

However if EP-1 wanna use lens from 4/3 format then they need an adapter.

so same format no need apater..diff format need adapter..

Thanks for clarifying. Any cons or restrictions for ep-1 or g1 when using adapater for 4/3 lens? Do they still retain sharpness, no vigentte, etc? Looking forward for the kit lenses offered by third parties as well for m4/3.

right... sorry bout that... missed the m... my bad...

will be available next week and the street price for single lens will be rm2600,double lens will be rm3300
