I just took delivery last night of the $199 special deal from Newegg on the EPM2 with the 14-42 kit lens. I took a series of shots while commuting through the beautifully landscaped local cemetery this morning, and have been comparing them with the results from my EM1. While less experienced than many veterans here, I was impressed at the image quality from the EPM2, photographing in a venue where I have shot a lot with the EM1 and also with my Nikon D7000. The EPM2 is a super bargain and gives you the EM5 sensor; you can set it up to use the Super Control Panel on its touch screen and to activate the dial on the rear for aperture or shutter priority.

Jim,
Is the kit lens pretty good. I'm not a pixel peeper but only want the camera if the kit lens is better than my very good (comparatively speaking) LX7 images?
thanks,
Joel
You might want to try the image comparison tool at Imaging Resource. It's a pretty good way to compare image quality of various cameras side by side. I'd say the PM2 with kit lens outperforms the LX7, especially as ISO increases.
