Once the accessory finder or microphone is put on, you can no longer sync a flash and there is no built in flash. What happened? Otherwise it's a beautiful camera in so many ways, you just can't do serious work with it using flash.
@genobambino The white and silver EP1 models were very... um... "fly" (I mean that in a good way). But to be fair, the EP2 black is a very, very good looking black—no cheap Rebel black plastic look. And black fits the EP2's potential role as a "stealth" or street camera. Personally I like it a lot. Now if only it was half the price!!
I got an E-P2. The color loses the retro quality of the E-P1 since old pens were silver and black. But it reminds me of my old Canon FTb: a good thing.
As for the camera—I LOVE it. A few settings here and there and EVERY negative written about it becomes moot. I might make a video review to discuss ways to fix the focus hunting and, for that matter, ever other foible. This thing is a gem.
It would have been nice if they had discussed the ways in which it improved EP-1 performance. Does it autofocus more quickly now? And if so, how much?
