I would say that this could be a true landmark camera. Much smaller than I expected it to be. Feels very, very solid - beautifully made. Doesn't seem "plasticky" at all. Fits in a small Walmart case. Superb DSLR photo results without the bulk. "Art" effects are perfect and are easy to choose. Soft focus yields incredible portraits. Solves the whole problem of DSLR is too big, P&S doesn't have the "Wow" results. Easy controls. LCD in daylight not a problem. Not as fast as my Canon XSi but it stays home most of the time. The E-PL1 collapsible zoom kit lens makes alot of all this possible.

Problems:

The instruction book 122 pages keeps referring you back and forth from one page to another. But the camera works great at the reset settings and thats where I just leave it.
