Olympus’ new E-PL1 Digital Camera

Today on this beautiful morning, we decided to check out the new camera from Olympus, the E-PL1. How different is this camera from the others? What does it offer? Well, we are hoping to answer all that in our mini review.
For starters, this camera comes with a very strong design, almost ala DSLR. Photos taken with this camera turn out of quite a good quality which is a pleasant start. The best thing about this camera is that it can shoot raw + JPEG in every mode unlike some cameras.
On the down side, the E-PL1 is a bit slower than other cameras. The autofocus is not that good and the same goes for the battery life, when did it finish we didn’t even realize. We also don’t like the fact that there’s a low-resolution LCD.
Overall, we think the price of the E-PL1 is definitely suitable as this is a camera with pros and cons but on the whole, it will suit those who are looking for something to train with before they enter the DSLR world.
