Either I'm hand holding it (not using the strap, only wrist strap),
or it's in my TTP Speed Demon with the FL-36R and E-420+25mm Pancake and 50 f/2...

The Speed Demon is nifty....but is huge for me.
I am thinking of getting the Crumpler 2 million or Large Bundle or 4 million.

One of these days i will be going to KLCC to see it.

thats a very clean ISO1600 indeed!


but the overblown highlights distract me a bit...
other than that...

anyone got any idea when they'll have the white EP1 with twin lens package?
I understand the 1st launch is only for silver EP1 with twin lens.

Added on July 25, 2009, 9:33 pmOh, how much they charged you for the EP1+twin lens package?
As I was there after the 1st batch sold out, i think they told me is around RM3200 or RM3300 and I checked around, that's the cheapest price.

And how much you bought for the flash?

wcs...
u sell the flash?
i m looking for one!

really? any idea why?
If bought it separately, is about rm1100?

Anyone know where to find Pen in JB area?
Price range?

What's the longest exposure of E-P1? Is it 60s?

60sec, same as most DSLR.

Should be set to BULB mode as well.

I have a minor question here.

How do you guys hold/hand position on the ep-1 when taking pictures?

i.e. : For a slr you put your eye onto the viewfinder while your hands grip the lens and camera body.

Considering the PEN do not have a viewfinder, how do you guys do it?
The same method as a PnS?

Thanks

Do you mean if I set it to BULB mode I can exceed 60s?

dear sifus..
i owned a E-410 together wif FL-36R..
but now,im poisoned with this PEN..im considering in trade-in/selling my dslr,since PEN for my opinion is more easy to carry,n not big as dslr and practical to use as daily camera..
now,i need all the sifus some comment..do images/setting/quality etc from this PEN is more syiok/best/excellent (generally) from my E-410??..and if im to get this PEN,FL-36R is better from FL-14 right??
plzz help me to make the decision..hehe
thank u,dear all sifus

Hi there,
I own a E-420+25mm Pancake and also the FL-36R. At first. when I 'accidentally' bought the PEN, first thought came to mind is selling the E-420 but now that I used the PEN thoroughly, decided not to sell it anymore.
Reason being that the PEN is not suitable for fast action photography and composing can be a challenge if you're used to using the viewfinder. Image quality wise, the PEN smoked my E-420 flat out including high ISO shots.
The FL-36R is just nice IMHO combined with the PEN and you get swivel head and bounce action. FL-14 is nice but it's too P&S direct lighting. Never like direct flash...
Whatever your decisions are, I don't think any of it will be wrong as the PEN is a GREAT camera...

hurm..1stly,thank u for comment my post..
bout the viewfinder,its ok with me to switch back to use liveview..but,ur comment bout "is not suitable for fast action photography" worried me..maybe i shud take that as one of factor, in considering..bout ur other comment on quality wise etc, i believe this PEN is more in every aspect compared to my E-410 right?..aaa personally i dun like my E-410..huhu

btw,thanks,ae8za ...looking foward for another comment..thanks sifuss

Somehow, I believe this camera is more for casual use. Fast action photography is definitely not an area for this camera.

nothing can beat a pure breed DSLR.

but the PEN can almost give most DSLR a run for its money.

so keep ur DSLR for serious shoots.
use PEN for everything else!
