Look into the live composite and live time features that the E-M10 has for star photography and see if they match what you are wanting to do. The E-PL7 probably has those same features if you prefer that body style but there is something to be said for having both a camera with a viewfinder and one without. I have both E-P3 and E-M10 and the newer model adds quite a bit to the older Pen but I like and still use both of them.

Yeah, it's interesting you bring up the body style; I prefer the Pen style, but like using a viewfinder and bought one for the E-P3 that mounted on the hot shoe. I wonder if that could also be used on the E-PL7....

Yes, it should work on the E-PL7. Certainly the VF-4 does work on the E-PL7.

Which viewfinder do you have?

S

VF-2; found this helpful page that confirms it would work!:
