Re: Olympus E-PM2 or Olympus PEN E-PL5 ( Which?) / Thanks All

You'll get the exact same images out of either body.  Which means that you're paying for the extra features of the E-PL5.  When I bought the PM2 late last year, there was a much larger price delta between the PL5 and PM2, enough where it swayed me to the PM2.  No regrets, but considering the prices are closer now (although there have been some really cheap, $200 PM2/kit lens deals lately), the PL5 has dropped enough where unless you're really counting pennies, that body is the way to go.
