Quick review
- The good
- Image quality, simple to use, distinct design, 720p movie capture, fun to use
- The bad
- No viewfinder, no flash, styling will deter some
- Verdict
- The Olympus E-P1 is a true hybrid, falling into the space between compact and DSLR. It is distinctly different in its offering and may, for some, be appealing as a result
- Key specs
- 12 megapixels, HDMI, Li-ion battery, SD, SDHC
