Bored with previously owning cameras that were either black or silver, I decided to be a little different and chose the red option for my next upgrade. Package was delivered promptly, (thanks Amazon) but upon opening the box, I was horrified to be met with a blinding wall of pinky pink girly Tinkerbell pinkness. It's fair to say that actual product is totally different to the example pictures on Amazon and the web. Worse still, because the camera body is actually painted in a metallic finish, in bright sunlight it becomes hot pink.. Oh dear, this isn't going to do my manly image much favours at all.
I bought this camera for a fast approaching holiday, and don't have time to exchange it for one of a more appropriate colour. I know it'll take superb pictures, however it's looking like I'm going to have to grin and bear the impending constant jokes and jibes about my new "Barbie" camera...

I,m the photographic nut and wanted max IQ in a small package inc the tiny Olympus lenses, first trip was a Bon Jovi concert indoors in low light and the camera focused with no problems and gave me great high ISO results.
The controls could do with a few more things such as a control wheel and a extra button for something dedicated.
There is more controls in the menu,s then you will need but it,s all there if needed .
Jpegs out of the camera are the best iv,e seen and the VF-2 is amazing as a option ,almost like having a Full frame finder it,s so clear and bright.
So if you want a small camera with mid level DSLR IQ , fairly good allround speed and the ability to blag your way into a Bon Jovi concert where DSLR,s are not allowed then the EPL-1 is for you.

I bought this for my wife to replace her Canon Powershot S50 and as a backup for my DSLR (for when I don't feel like lugging around a heavy kit). Overall I have been impressed with the camera especially the picture quality. JPEGS are excellent (sharp as well as vibrant) and reduce the need to shoot RAW. The controls are OK - I tend to shoot manual exposure a lot and just about manage with it although some dials/wheels would be useful (like the E-P1/2). Focus speed is acceptable for me. Basically, anyone coming from compact cameras will be perfectly happy but anyone expecting mid-range SLR focus speed is going to be disappointed. My main advice to Olympus would be to make the camera even smaller (like the Sony NEX-3/5)!!
Does it replace my D700? Absolutely not but it is a perfectly acceptable replacement for when I don't want to carry the bulk of the D700.

I researched for a long time before buying this. I was ready to upgrade my old point and shoot digital camera and wanted something that would stretch me a bit more - and this does. Yes, you can use the "easy guide" and auto, but when you're ready to move on from that, there's plenty to explore. No, the camera is not pocket size, but is not a burden to carry everyday in a handbag. The photos are superb, crystal clear and it's easy to pick the camera up and start shooting straightaway. I am happy I bought it.
