Fun art modes, good focusing, focus tracking, sharp overall image quality, built-in flash
Noticeable noise above ISO 400, mode dial is too stiff, no dedicated controls for changing exposure, no built-in EVF, screen a little dull
The Olympus PEN E-PL1 is a budget interchangeable lens camera, but the problem is that it's just not cheap enough. You don't get an EVF nor any physical exposure controls, and the body is just very plain overall. It doesn't have the appeal of the PEN E-P2...

Abstract: We’ve already covered the new Olympus E-PL1 in a preview and a demo of the Live Guide automatic shooting, so this review is going to wrap things up into a neat little package. In case you didn’t read our previous coverage, the E-PL1 is the newest camer...
