guys, at first i was a lil’ bit hesitant in buying this pen series (e-pl1) but then given the thought that dslr cameras are rather bulky and heavy . . . i gave it a chance and NEVER HAD ANY REGRETS . . . AT ALL!!! shoots with dslr (bulky) cameras but sleek like point and shoot cams! . . . EXCELLENT PIC QUALITY . . . oh yeah, it’s a dslr! ;p

@virgilio santos: don’t mean to be a wise-ass but i think the R (or Reflex) pertains to the lens and not the mirror, this camera has a mirror-less lens.

very intriguing camera, don’t know if i should wait for the sony NEX or go for this one, not really a fan of the bulky DSLR cams.

let the canon and nikon fanatics stick to their brands. i don’t want them discovering and handling this gem.

try walking around bonifacio_high_street on a busy show-offy time (the usual cliche’ show off of either their canines, their clueless dates, or their dSLR) and see nothing but canon and nikon. a Lumix or a Pentax or a Alpha_Sony really stands out. more so a Leica or an H2/H3.

anyway… yes, this one has no “reflex” mirror to speak of. so i guess this shouldn’t be considered as DSLR(R for reflex, right?) at all. it has direct electronic image readings from the lens, as one would see from many websites that explains what a 4/3 (and a micro 4/3) is, along with the crappy so-called “crop-factor” argument that ancient SLR fans love to argue about.

someone mentioned there’s a huge price mark-up… that’s true.

this one is ^the^ cheapest… sorry, typo error.

I thought this one is cheapest micro four thirds at around $600 USD. Mahal naman ng kaunti ang SRP nila. But given the money, I’ll buy this.

Hi Peeps…FYI this EP-L1 Pen model is really a DSLR. It has a DSLR functions with a point-and-shoot body. Good price point, don’t want to bring a bulky DSLR all the time…

Its kinda expensive…might as well go to a Canon or Nikon with the same specs and maybe at a much lower price.

The design is like the “iPod meets dSLR”; sleek, sexy and compact.

Is a review coming soon?

I would rather invest on a DSLR.

or Get a Canon G10 or G11.

Nice but the price point is near or actually SLR territory.

This looks interesting. It may service a good purpose for some. I think for my own use, if it’s too big to slip into the pocket I might as well take a regular dslr.

Preview already posted at dpreview.com – together with sample shots. Been eyeing this for the longest time. Too bad, anlaki ng markup ng local distributor.
