About this product

Product Information

The Olympus E-P1 marks an innovative era in digital imaging. The Micro Four Thirds camera upholds the legacy of the celebrated PEN family of cameras, with the photographic optics of an SLR and the size and simplicity of a point and shoot. Combining the still image quality of a digital single lens reflex (DSLR) with the A/V quality of both a high definition camcorder and high-end audio recorder, the E-P1 is a virtual full-service imaging studio in one ultra-portable and stylishly retro body. With dozens of advanced features, the E-P1 makes documenting and sharing your everyday life easier and more creative than ever before.The E-P1 is the world's smallest 12.3-mexapixel interchangeable lens system camera, yet has the creative flexibility to give you a true professional experience with ease. A still photo, video and audio recorder in one, the E-P1 creates exceptional photos, inventive slide shows, and remarkable videos both for personal use or for posting on many of today's social networking websites. It delivers professional quality images without the bulk of a conventional DSLR, thanks to its slim body and advanced high-speed imager AF (Live View) technologies. The lens mount diameter has been reduced, enabling the use of smaller, lighter interchangeable lenses that perform at the same level as larger DSLR lenses. The camera fits easily in many pockets and purses.With 12.3 megapixels at its disposal, the E-P1 delivers image quality that makes the difference between ordinary and exceptional still and video imaging. A Live MOS image sensor is complemented by a next generation TruePic V image processor, resulting in excellent dynamic range, accurate color fidelity, fine image details in all highlight and shadow areas, and reduced noise.

Great compact camera.
This may look like a little Point & Shoot, but don't be fooled by the Olympus Pen's small size. It packs a Micro 4/3 sensor and has the ability to interchange lenses. So not only can you get better results by way of having the ability to slap a telephoto lens or fisheye on the body, the sensor is also great compared to that little P&S you're thinking of replacing. Now this is the older model in a series that had 2 newer bodies released. The main downside on the E-P1 is the LCD screen and the lack of EVF (Electronic Viewfinder) port. So the VF-1 is the only Viewfinder able to be put onto the camera, unless you buy 3rd party viewfinders by companies like Voigtlander. There is no flash built in, but no one who take photography uses an in body flash, and you can purchase two different Olympus ...

It may seem a little too wide angle for most shots, but it is a 35mm equivalent. The 2.8 aperture is also great for shallow depth of field and low light. I would definitely recommend this camera to anyone wanting something smaller than their DSLR to take with them everywhere, or to people who want something more than a P&S but don't want to commit to a full size (and expensive) DSLR.

Olympus Pen EP-1
This is the digital SLR Olympus secretly wanted to deliver. Yamaichi Maitani designed the original Pen-F system, a 35mm SLR in half-frame format,which inspired the Pen FT w/TTL metering as well as the OM-1 many moons later. Among the essential camera and lens firms, Oly was the first to make the transition from film to digital by taking three of its most-iconic models, the Stylus Epic,Stylus Zoom, and the iS, and coming up with the D-340,the D-390, and the D-600. I expected Olympus to make a digital OM-1, much as Canon, Nikon and Pentax did their popular and professional SLRs. But Oly's designers balked due to dust and dirt considerations,and so the E-10/20,with nonremoveable optics appeared.The Four-Thirds program began with the Evolt line(E-300/330)and the E-1, both bulky designs, ...

I expected Olympus to make a digital OM-1, much as Canon, Nikon and Pentax did their popular and professional SLRs. But Oly's designers balked due to dust and dirt considerations,and so the E-10/20,with nonremoveable optics appeared.The Four-Thirds program began with the Evolt line(E-300/330)and the E-1, both bulky designs, followed by the E500.These had the ultrasonic sensor cleaner, as did the E-400, which was much smaller,close in size and looks to the OM-10/20/30,consumer-oriented cameras designed for the OM lens system. Then it hit me: Since the 4/3 sensor was similar in size and shape to half-frame 35mm, the format Olympus championed with the Pen series, why not a digital makeover of the Pen FT, with features like built-in art filters and full HD video that the Pen-F designers thought was science-fiction back then?Team Olympus must've thought the same. A few complained that the live-view LCD is the only viewfinder, but that seems no big deal to me. The EP-1, for me, replaced another Olympus digital, the C-3040, one of the first of the serious consumer digitals, with an F 1.8 "super bright" lens and a shape like that of the 35-SP, an Olympus rangefidner of the 1970's.The 3040,like the D-340/390/600, was based around a format called SmartMedia, which, like the xD Picture Card, got locked out of a market that decided on Compact Flash and SD-MMC-HC as the memory format standards, and to use the camera's full manual options, it was necessary to use the LCD, not the eyepiece viewfinder. I find the live-view LCD an elegantly simple solution to the need for a bulky prism finder and mirror box to gain SLR lens flexibility.On the Pen-FT,Olympus used a porroprism and a pellicle mirror, same as on the Canon Pellix. And, as with the Pellix, the payback was a dimmer VF image and a loss of 1/3 F-stop,which Canon compensated for by an add-on Booster meter, the vestiges of which remain on the EOS 5D Mark II, the 7D,and the 60D with their 12800 EI settings. I am anxious putting the camera through its pace as soon as the snows subside. The response is quick and the LCD is bright enough,and while the 14-42(equal to a 28-84)isn't a 1.8, has a more useful range than the 3040's 35-105 and the higher max iso and bigger sensor more than compensate.The half-frame sensor's megapixel count is a little more than half the EOS 5D's, hitting the serious amateur/prosumer sweet spot,with most of the 5D's capabilities. Snapshooters may bemoan the lack of a built-in strobe(presumably, Olympus made the EPL-1 for them), but the EP-1 is otherwise lacking in nothing that it needs.It's nice that Oly is broadening the Micro Four-Thirds lens array, and Olympus and aftermarketers offer a range of adapters allowing Pen-F,OM,and regular 4/3rds, along with Pentax-K,Nikkor-F, EOS and Leica lenses, thus affording new Pen users a wide range of possible body-lens matchups. It's safe to say that Oly has got its camera mojo working again.

Olympus E-P1
The Olympus E-P1 or "pen" camera represents a new concept in interchangeable lens cameras, combining serious optics, portability and a sleek and durable design. I was attracted to its all metal frame. It feels solid to handle and takes up a fraction of the space required to transport a DSLR-type camera while offering similar optical capabilities to the introductory level DSLRs offered by Nikon or Canon. The E-P1 a serious camera. I've been shooting with mine for three weeks now and I love it! Excellent photographs and wonderful portability . . . . it's a great combination, making the camera a joy to use. The E-P1 has been out for a little over a year now and has already been followed by the EP-2 and EPL-1 cameras. Technically they are all classified as "micro Four Thirds" (or mFT) cameras ...

Technically they are all classified as "micro Four Thirds" (or mFT) cameras and all share similar internal works. Do an internet search and compare features. The E-PL1, Olympus's newest mFT, is recommended for newcomers to photography looking to move up from the typical "point and shoot" camera, but be warned: it lacks the metal frame and great styling of the E-P1. The E-P1 camera that I purchased is a beautiful work of industrial art which might well end up as a modern "classic." The model is being closed out now and is available at great prices. If you are interested act soon.

A great entry into the micro-four thirds digital system
I bought the Olympus E-P1 not so much to get into the micro four-thirds digital standard per se, but because the micro 4/3 cameras, with a variety of low-cost lens adapters, allow the use of legacy/vintage manual focus lenses like those made for Leica rangefinders or the old film 35mm SLRs. Like many other photographers I've accumulated a few of these lenses over the years , but they have not gotten much use since I switched to a digital SLR a few years back. It was a toss-up between the Olympus E-P1 and the Panasonic Lumix G-1, both first-generation m 4/3s cameras (and as such available at good value now that a slew of new models have come out). The reasons I went with the E-P1 instead of the G-1: (a) I have been a big Olympus user for almost 30 years, and I trust their cameras and ...

It was a toss-up between the Olympus E-P1 and the Panasonic Lumix G-1, both first-generation m 4/3s cameras (and as such available at good value now that a slew of new models have come out). The reasons I went with the E-P1 instead of the G-1: (a) I have been a big Olympus user for almost 30 years, and I trust their cameras and optics; (b) the styling of the Olympus is great and based on the classic Olympus Pen-F 35mm half-frame SLR camera from the '60s; (c) it is more unobtrusive to use than the G-1, which looks more like a small DSLR. I like the feel of the E-P1, it's very solid but very compact, the controls are easy to use, and it comes with a lot of great features, including in-camera image stabilzation, which I have never used before but find to be extremely useful for low-light/slow-shutter speed shooting. I know that other reviewers consider the lack of an electronic viewfinder, slow auto-focusing, and lack of a built-in flash downsides of the E-P1. Since I use the camera predominantly for daylight/available light photography using vintage manual focus lenses, I find that having no flash or a slow AF to be no problem (though note that the AF issue has been improved with the latest v1.4 firmware update). I do find that the lack of an electronic viewfinder can be a problem when shooting in strong sunlight----users of point-and-shoots will be familiar with this problem when they frame their photos with the external LCD. However, I consider it more of an annoyance than anything else, and I've ordered an LCD screen hood to cut back on the glare----I'll update this post once I get it to let others know how it goes. This is the sole reason I have rated the product "Good"---in reality if there was a score between Good and Excellent, that's where I would put it. Overall, am very pleased with the camera-it's as good as the reviews have made it out to be and has got me shooting a lot more since it is much smaller and lighter to carry around than my DSLR (an Olympus E-500). It's great to be able to put the camera in one coat pocket (with a small vintage normal lens mounted), with another small vintage telephoto in another pocket and be able to capture a lot of great photos without a lot of crazy gear. After two weeks I only just used the kit zoom (which is amazingly small and appears to be very sharp and good), but I can't really say much about it since I don't really have much experience with it yet. Hope this helps.
