Olympus PEN E-PL1 Launch Event March 2010

The 3rd of March 2010 marked the UK Launch Event for the new E-PL1 from Olympus. I travelled up to Brick Lane in London to spend the day taking photos and video footage with this new camera. Check out the video for my story of how the day unfolds.

It annoys me that some camera manufacturers still put zoom buttons on cameras. It's much easier and more satisfying to have a rocker on the shutter release button. This does look like a good camera though.

No zoom buttons here, the zoom is on the lens.

great great video dave

i have question

i will buy one but what come in the box :

just budy ? or with it lens like the one in your hand in this video ?

thank you a lot

[davomrmac]

OK, three kits available.

Body only, Body + 14-42mm lens, or Body + 14-42mm lens + 40-150mm zoom.

In every box you also get battery, charger etc.

[RobinScott93]

Oops, my mistake.

At the end of the day Dave, it's still an SLR, and takes SLR lenses, although the body is slightly smaller.

I find that a tripod helps a hell of a lot for stability, especially with compacts, But SLRs are a lot better in terms of less shakeyness etc.
