you sure you want to get this when it's out xandman?

Just got the White E-P1. Got both lenses and OVF. Currently charging it now, and taking it later to Paris for photoshoot in Disneyland Paris. Newbie here so my pics may be not good. This is my first "better than PnS" camera I have since my crappy Cybershot, so I cant wait to see the image quality jump.

what is Four Third? is it a new camera manufacturer?

tq

Good idea. I've already told myself, never to get myself into DSLRs in the first place, so sticking with the theme seems pretty apt. Good call.

Malu lah. I dont want to bring out the trolls. Private exhibition perhaps? I'll pass you the password to the gallery later. Need more pointers from you also.

i'm wondering if olympus overpriced their camera since it's first and only kind of camera of its size in the market as for now.. if competitors came out with similar cam, then i believe price will dropped drastically.. so waiting waiting waiting for end of year, early next year

Some one did use it:

Xandman & Seaotter,

If you like, I can let you try it out this Friday. I have to be at KLIA early in the morning (7am) to pick up a unit of iPhone 3G[S], and I should be free the entire day after that. I need all the pointers I can get, and I want to learn. You will be surprised how much of a noob I am when it comes to photography.

We can set the meet-up at a venue convenient for everyone, and you pros can test it out, and I'll learn from you guys. I know how to make "this thing blur" here, and "that thing clear there" but that is probably the extent of my skills.

Only this Friday I'm free. Tomorrow got a course in Kelana Jaya, and Saturday I'm off to Frankfurt. So, your call.

didnt know u guys were discussing bout this beauty so much in here,tot only in screwscrew.

i just got my hand on EP1 yesterday.nice camera.i love the feeling.it look small,but quite heavy which will provide u the stability. tried with 14-42mm+flash.feels like wana lari from dat kedai with the camera.haha..then tried with 17mm and VF.super classy!i get the same feeling when i try Leica M8.now i dream bout EP1 all day all nite.haishh..no money.

Alrighty then. Seaotter if you are still keen, Friday after 2pm I can still make it. Need to bring notepad to jot down some pointers from you.

Where can we meet up?
Unfortunately there is no body only option as yet.
How much is the heliar?
Because panasonic has just released a 7-14 (SEVEN MM~!!!) lens for the micro 4/3rds.
So its a 35mm equivalant of 14 mm. That is WIDE.
