The 14-42mm kit lens works great on my E-PL2. It is versatile and sharp. For a bit more speed, but still at a bargain price, look at the Sigma 19mm and 30mm f/2.8 lenses. Auto-focus with all these...

No, the photographer still has the copyright. A yearbook editor should know not to use photos without permission. Maybe she assumed that all the parents know she is the yearbook editor and she will...

DPR, could you please implement a cheapskate filter on this forum? I'm tired of wading through the it-costs-too-much whining.

Ideally, the cheapskate filter should also catch comments wanting new...

Thanks, I think I'll try using the automatic review for a while. I'd like to set it at 1/3 or 1/2 second, but my E-PL2 has 1 second as the briefest option.

Maybe this problem is particular to my camera (E-PL2, firmware 1.3) or viewfinder (VF-3). The viewfinder is great, but when I hit the playback button to review my photos, the image goes from the...

Nice job. The music complements the scenery very well.

Veroman, you may think this camera is odd, and not understand it, but that's because you think a peephole is an "absolute necessity" and Olympus PEN digital cameras DO NOT HAVE PEEPHOLES. Please,...

Beautiful shots, Julie. What makes them stun is that they get us into the action and allow us to see it as we otherwise couldn't. A photo of a sports event doesn't stun if it just shows the wide...

Chris, thank you for starting this discussion. It's great to hear insights from a photographer as knowledgeable as you. The G5 shots that you complain about look like my best sports shots, so it's...

That's what the OM-D line is for. OM-D is full-featured, including a peephole, and PEN is compact.

No, I do not want a taller camera. No, I do not want a smaller LCD. No, I do not want to pay for an integrated viewfinder that I don't need. If you need an eyeball-size viewfinder, please buy a...

I like OV3. The improvement I most notice is the lack of an hourglass after importing photos from my camera, so I can disconnect the camera right away. I also like how OV3 (optionally) combines...

Olympus says its IBIS is worth 1.3 f-stops on my E-PL2, so that makes the 60/2.8 a 60/1.8 in low light. I'm not a bokeh fetishist, if by "slow" you mean "in focus."

Focus peaking is most useful with manual focus lenses. My impression is that more manual focus lenses are used on Olympus cameras than on Panasonic cameras because Olympus puts image stabilization...

Most of us are a little of both, but sometimes you face a choice between buying new gear and using what you already own. Anyone on a budget should avoid the current generation of cameras until it's...

Please consider NOT zooming during recording. To me, zooming shots look amateurish and distracting. I saw an old movie a few months ago, and many shots zoomed in and out. My first thought was that...

Your photos are very nice. There's nothing wrong with the post-processing, but I suggest you try RAW development with Olympus Viewer 3, which is a free download. It lets you experiment with the...

Yes, it's a great deal, I took it a couple months ago and fortunately was still able to return the copies of the lenses that I had just bought separately. I have no complaints about the lenses.

There's little or no delay on my E-PL2. Maybe one second. It's inconsequential.

The difference is mainly cosmetic, and the new 30mm comes with a hood.
