Hoping to purchase one of the above soon. Hoping I can get some advice from existing owners here (or even opinion from those that don't
it's all good).
Ignoring cost for now (say I can get both for the same price with kit zoom), which would you choose and why?
E-P1 or E-PL1?
As far as I can see, the main differences are:
E-P1
Metal body
1/4000 shutter
better controls, dials and the like.
Bigger LCD
Better IBIS (? is this right, or is that just e-p2)
E-PL1
Touch smaller/lighter
Flash
EVF support (unlikely to be able to afford one tho)
Dedicated movie button (which can be remapped)
Zoom button
Better grip
What have I missed/not considered?
In terms of use, my main interest is the outdoors (keen mountainbiker) so landscape stuff, and also shots of riders. This can mean challenging conditions with fast moving riders in dark forests. But this would be my only camera, so it'd get used for all sorts of other stuff too, and on holidays etc. I've also some decent MF nikon lenses to use on it, particularly a nice 50mm f/2 and a 135/f2.8 which seems a good length for MTB shots.
So far the E-PL1 seems the better bet... but that 1/2000 limit on the shutter worries me a bit for shooting wide open in bright light ( I borrow a D40 on occasion and it's not uncommon to be shooting faster than 1/2000). Of course I could use a ND filter - or maybe those with the E-PL1 don't hit this limit often?
Also the E-P1 with its metal build seems nice and sturdy... and maybe there are other factors I've missed?
Thanks for reading a long post, any and all input welcomed!
