I couldn't agree more. The salesman told me it was fantastic and I didn't believe him.
I feel like I should go back to the store and apologise.

Jim.

Maybe I should trade the G1 for a Pen 2.
I kinda like the Pen cameras....I hear the EVF is the best....

Don, I've got the E-P2 here - it's great, but I'd save my money for the next cam from Olympus. The E-P1 is more than enough camera for photography in the meantime

Cheers

Brian

Shooter, you hear right....
But...
I hear lots of good stuff about the G1, GF1 etc etc.
But.... That Pen does have some style.
Jim.

Couldn't agree with you more.

The hard thing about all these cameras today is that they're constantly upgrading...so Shooter AKA Don, I'd bide your time...if you can...unless you want to give The Boss your E-P1.

Well, Whatever happens to come along, it would only be a sidekick for the Pen. I think I'll be using it for a long time....

But then again, give me something like the Pen from, who cares camera company...that has a focus scale...and...the marriage is done..

What kind of focus scale do you have in mind Don? My DP1 has a manual focusing scale... also my Panasonic LX1 has one.

Cheers

Ahhhhhh boo hoo, I do miss the dp1.
I would like a scale on the screen that shows what distance the lens is focused at.
I would like to be able to focus the lens to say,
8.7' for example.
I'm told by many it's impossible but I don't believe it.
