Just got one today! Waiting for the battery to charge overnight and will be in Koh Samui, Thailand tomorrow. Photogasm!

[RestLessIP]

What kind of connection is the battery charger ?

[davomrmac]

@RestLessIP It is country specific.

[RestLessIP]

@davomrmac Okay, thanks anyways.

Do you btw think it's better as the Samsung NX10 ?

[davomrmac]

@RestLessIP Definitely, without a doubt.

There's no printed manual? That sucks.

[davomrmac]

@ar4216 There is one in the retail kit.

[davomrmac]

@drake1990 Olympus E-PL1 every time, much better built.

[ar4216]

Is the gold gold or silver? It looks silver- very nice looking.

[davomrmac]

@ar4216 It is a champagne colour.

[ar4216]

@davomrmac

Thanks. It was more noticeable in the second part. Nice looking camera. Thanks for providing such a detailed look at it.

[davomrmac]

@ar4216 You're welcome, glad it helped.

[hoyKEBIN]

[batimovich]

Thanks dude this video help me a lot to decide between this camera or Canon G-11..

what do you think? well I got to check out your part 2 now .

[davomrmac]

Oh definitely this, though the G11 is a little smaller. The E-PL1 would get my money though.
