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

[ndroo]

There are only three settings :

(1) Got juice
(2) Still have <<--- user setting
(3) You're screwed

And you can tweak your battery warning (as you probably already know) in case you don't fancy deep draining or be warned before hand that you are going to be "screwed". :bsmilie:

Got icons to represent those ah?

Damn sad... you folks are making me envious with your E-P1s...

I'm still waiting for the next shipment of the dual lens kit to come.
And it feels like eternity... all the major retailers don't seem to be carrying it. :cry:

Ugh tempted.

The setup really appears more balanced this way. Is the sync cord Olympus or 3rd party?

This is the Nikon one. I have been using both Oly and Nikon sync cords for years.

Do not panic after watching this video. I used the Lensbaby on it with pinhole art filter and deliberately screw up the WB to get the 'weird' effect. I love it! Now I can go mess with crappy looking videos. Don't get confused ... the E-P1 does great videos but I'm a sucker for low-fi looking crappy videos. Mounted my EF mount Lensbaby with an adapter from Chiif.

Thanks for your reply.

Sorry, I'm a bit low tech when it comes to this, but with the Nikon sync cord, does it still have the TTL function?

Never really find out with the FL50. I use Auto function when shooting, that is because my fav flash for a long time has been Nikon Speedlights.

I believe only the Canon off-camera cord is 100% compatible with the Olympus one... ie support TTL when used with Olympus flash and cameras.

Wow! That's good news then! Coz Canon flash sync cable should be easier to find, and maybe more cost effective.

maybe a tactic to persuade you to get the single lens kit?
