It truly is a beauty of design.
Is there ANY better looking digital camera than an EP1 with a nice legacy lens -- like an M or CV, or a nice Jupiter as shown. (well, OK -- let's say less than $6,000 digital camera
Nic, we doin need no fancy dancin' high falutin camera porn 'round here...
Now I ain't one to spread rumors and youse didn't get this from me....
"P" mode... Ya oughtta be ashamed of yourself...
I shot a series of pics with my E-P1/Nikkor lens (80 ISO), then put the same lens on my NEX5 (200 ISO), the Olympus pics have a disconcerting grain/noise to them compared to the comparatively razor sharp Sony images. I love the feel and look of the E-P1, the graininess just puts me off. Settings perhaps?
I may be wrong but I believe the "base" ISO for the EP1 is actually ISO 200 so not sure if that would make a difference?
In saying that I don't think anyone would argue that the sensor in the EP1 is as good as the APS-C in the NEX, if the NEX had a good range of lenses and some decent controls I'd have had one.

Well, it's been over a year since anyone posted in this thread so I thought I'd bump this thread up to the surface again. The E-P1 was the camera that got me interested in photography. Still takes beautiful photos (even when the subject is covered in layers of dust)
