It's here! Olympus E-P1 "Digital Pen" m43 system

[azul123]

Damnit! I think I need one of these! Perfect as a second body to your 4/3rds camera!

I think perfect for second body or travelling camera for most DSLR, now with plentiful of adapters around, m4/3 to Nikon/Canon/four-thirds/Pentax/etc.. this is about the most versatile system there is right now.

Is there any further info on 4/3rds lens compatibility.
Lenses like the 14-54mm mk I.

It's anyone's guess at the moment. The firmware is not complete.

If the pictures are real, then the m4/3 is going to garner plenty of attention.

I just hope the new m4/3 won't use xD cards... :embrass:

Excitement building......!!

I've been wanting to buy a LX3 as a high quality compact but after seeing this....I'll wait!

 

[headfonz]

invested in my E30 this year...and my LX2 is still working perfectly....sigh :cry:...guess i will have to wait until E-P3 or E-P4.

4.5 more days to the announcement :sweat:

 

[whyzee]

already sold my LX3... now all i have to do is wait.. but gonna tahan til end of the year and see the higher spec version..

 

[dorts]

More stuff. Haha!

 

[Evilmerlin]

Wait...does that mean that all Olympus m4/3 prime lens will come with their own hotshoe viewfinder? That's an optical one. How does it work with zoom lens?

I dont remember ever seeing rangefinder having super zoom lense :sweat:

 

[Evilmerlin]

Well, this one does. From some of the rumours, it'll be packed with a 14-42.

 

[spidey89]

:cry:looks so beautiful....i want one....

just speculating....but perhaps it will have 3 different bright-line frame lines at 14mm, 25mm and 42mm that light up when the lens is zoomed to the corresponding focal length. something like the Leica M8's viewfinder.
