Re: E-P3 is a good upgrade from an E-PL1

Having had the E-PL 5 before getting the E OM-10, I would suggest skipping the PL-5 and pick up a good deal on the E OM-10.  The built in viewfinder as well as built in flash along with the better controls make it a much better camera than the PL-5.  And, adding the optional grip gives it even a better feel and balance when using a zoom lens such as the 75-300 mm lens.  Don't get me wrong....the PL-5 takes really good pics, but I enjoy the OM-10 so much more than the PL-2 and PL-5 bodies that I've owned.  And, I also picked up those cameras and my OM-10 used and have saved a bundle!!
