## Description

desertcart.com : Olympus E-PM2 Mirrorless Digital Camera with 14-42mm Lens (Silver) (Old Model) : Compact System Digital Cameras : Electronics

Review: Lot of camera for $320. - I have had many film cameras and 8 or 10 digitals. The film cameras were upper level Nikons and a Canon T90. The digitals were $500 ish point and shoots including a Lumix Leica lx7, two Canon s90s, and several models that were cutting edge at the time, now lost to obscurity. This camera takes superb images, the lense is fast (I have stock zoom) for the price point, and the video is adequate, which I use quite a bit. I dislike the touch screen, because it seems that I am often handling the camera with in bright light with limited view of the reflective screen, and I have ruined some photos and videos by inadvertently altering the image parameters. I have had the camera a month and expect I will get less dumb about that though. The only other complaint I have is that the camera is not as small as depicted in the ads. The stock zoom is a large lense--compared to point and shoots. But that is subjective so the camera gets five stars, especially since I paid around $300 for the camera and lense. Great deal, great camera.
Review: Frustrated.... - Frustrated, this camera gets amazing reviews - I thought I did all of my research, but I can't get good pictures from this camera!!! What am I doing wrong? My iPhone takes better and more consistent quality pictures. Pictures are washed out, blurry and exposed over a prior picture. I've even gone to a photography class trying to figure this thing out. I've hardly used this camera since purchasing it because I just can't count on a good outcome. I spent more than I've ever spent on a camera...still haven't achieved a functional and consistent camera!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent JPEG quality and ergonomics
*by B***E on December 1, 2013*

I've had the Olympus E-PM2 for 4 months now, and I must say I'm liking it more and more every day. Image quality from the kit lens might seem ordinary at first, but the camera does render excellent color even from JPEGs (this is where I got most compliments, the colors of the JPEGs output). Autofocus is superfast and super quiet, unlike the Sony NEX-5. Even in dim light, with the kit lens (shot at the widest aperture available), autofocus is fast thanks to the illuminator. I've been shooting more with the Olympus prime 45mm f1.8 recently, and image quality is superb. I bought this lens for ~$300 from a Japanese Amazon retailer. With that lens I don't even carry my flash around any more. Color is warm, bokeh is splendid, and overall a great purchase. If you're used to shooting prime, I might even suggest skipping the kit lens and getting the 17mm 1.8 with the 45mm 1.8 - otherwise Panasonic has other lens choices that are compatible with Olympus too, as long as they're all micro 4/3. But considering the kit lens is included in the bundle for such a small difference in price, might as well get it. The kit lens is not bad shooting in day light, but if you don't plan on purchasing any additional lens, it's probably better investing in a more high-end (fixed-lens) compact, like the Sony RX-100 or Canon S120. As for which PEN to get, the E-PM2 has the 16MP sensor from the OM-D-E5, which is significantly better than the E-P3. E-PM2 and E-PL5 have similar specs, but the E-PL5 has a tilting LCD and mode dials, which I figured I can live without, but we'll see if I regret that decision. In my opinion it's better to invest more heavily in lenses, as it seems like the micro 4/3 line is improving steadily, and new bodies with newer sensors will make their way to the market in the future. I figured in a few years I could get a new body with a better sensor but retain all of my lenses. That being said, I might be too attached to this E-PM2 at that point to let go ;) Overall, an excellent purchase.
