Thanks so much for putting this up! I was between either a flip ultra and expensive digital camera or the olympus pen.....I might just go with the pen
how is it the my cheaper lumix fz38 bridgecam does not have the jelloeffect but this more expensive dslr's have it.. shouldn't the be better with those things??just curious
@CausesSideEffects A lot has to do with the sensor type. Many of the jello problems are caused by the CMOS sensors in DSLRs, whereas your camera has a CCD. Of course many camcorders also use CMOS, but the ones in DSLRs aren't primarily designed for video. PS - don't forget you can support me by shopping for anything at the partner stores page at cameralabs . com! Thanks!
@cameralabs very good.. and thx Gordon.. i've been watching your videos since a while now and because of you i also bought the fz38.. really helped me with my decission.. next time i get something new( wich i will soon ) i'll check at the partnerstore.. greetz bZa
I'm a little exited in the pants. You have the best reviews and this camera is a whole new revolution. It's digital with it's own voice, not digital for former film users. Awesome-sauce!
I really like your videos, but I prefer the style of the old ones where you actually showed how to handle the cameras, where the different controls are placed and so on.
There is another camera identical to this.. But olympus FAILED because they didnt add a electronic viewfinder like the other model.. this has an atatchment but it sucks..
Thanks for the video review. Just one question - what file types are used for videos and can they be edited using Windows Movie Maker ? Many thanks.

Your reviews are really helpful, thanks! But I have a question, does it reduce shaking when recording a video?

Hi Gordon, I'm looking at the EP1/2 and GF1, solely for video with adapted lenses. Which one would you recommend solely for video? Cheers :)

Around when your first start panning, @ about 1:20 or so, there are some screen tears? Is this youtube, or is this in the original video too? :(

The mic is stereo, unless you were able to record in mono through a setting in the camera.
I would post a link to the Olympus website with the camera specifications, but Youtube won't allow it.

Yep, you're right, the mic is stereo - my mistake.

no nikon or canon dslr offer stereo sound all are mono.

Yep, had a ton of instances where it won't load the videos.

Not a bad camera for video, I still can't say I like how the camera itself looks, but that's just personal preference.
