Pros: Small, handy, powerful, file management, color and b/n and above all BEAUTIFUL!!!

Cons: No one, maybe some filter too...

Opinion: Purchased for 2 months, in a few days became the main machine, beautiful, black, fantastic maneuver, light, produces fantastic files, I also have the M1.2, but in my opinion the Files of the Pen have something more. He's with me every day, I couldn't help it anymore... with pro optics it's a little more complicated to manage, but just get used to it... For those who love OLYMPUS, I think it's an essential object... and to think that I didn't like her exit at all...

Pros: Small, manageable, powerful and beautiful

Cons: According to the type of machine no, if I have to give some "cons" I would have avoided all those unnecessary filters.

Opinion: I State that is not the first camera I own, together with the new arrival of home Oly account on a Nikon D700 (only fixed optics) and Ricoh GR. The PenF is with me for about 15 days and I must say that, accomplice to the novelty, I'm photographing more and with satisfaction. The compactness and quality is for me high. I shoot smoothly at 2000 ISO and sincerely the files that products are beautiful. I ruled out the NR because I do not tolerate the typical effect of reduction on-camera and because printing the noise is not known as in video. What to say, I wanted it and bought it and I'm satisfied, despite a previous experience with OMD EM 10 not really finished well. So Good Olympus!

Pros: Vintage Aesthetics, sturdiness, practicality of transport, speed of use

Cons: With the use of glasses do not always turn on the viewfinder (eyepiece)

Opinion: A nice little toy to travel the world and take home wonderful shots. Relatively light body, also combined with the Zoom 12-40 f/2.8 (a bit ' chubby and heavy compared to the fixed) never annoys. If we can also put a couple of "classic" lenses in the backpack... Well... It seems to have returned to the years 80 when the 28-35-85 mm were at home, so much fun to search for the best framing and shoot. Certainly known difference between the files of the Pen F and those of the Nikon D3X, but always depends on the love that one puts us to grasp the moments that photographer. Recommended with full marks. And then the goals are found in the Web at attractive prices, considering the wonderful rendering to my way of seeing. I read that "addictive." True!

Pros: High-level aesthetics and finishes, dimensions, general quality.

Cons: A certain difficulty in opening the monitor (due to the absence of an invitation for the finger). For the rest, I will bring back my general impressions after having tried it for a while.

Opinion: Just received (bought used on Ebay). I can't, for now, subscribe to the impressions of the other reviews (regarding handling). I will bring back as soon as possible the results of the tests of use, for now I can only say that for a long time I did not feel satisfaction in handling a new device. It's really fantastic and well finished. Notice that I come from OM-D EM-5 (Mk 1), which was already a nice car. The ECG4 is certainly very useful and for an intense use is probably better to mount it (especially if you use a bit ' heavy optics), of course that the machine is more beautiful without.

Pros: Aesthetics, portability, compactness, customization, stabilizer in machine, b/w files exceptional If you personalize the various monochrome profiles, viewfinder

Cons: M4/3 sensor, excessive depth of field

Opinion: After a year of assiduous use, I can finally say that it is not the system mirroless not to go well, but the sensor M4/3. I knew that I had not in my hands a full frame but I expected more from the M4/3 sensor both in terms of three-dimensionality and blurry aperture all open. In my opinion the unscrewing of the M4/3 sensors is to be the exact half of the full frame sensor and this creates a result for which not only the 25 mm on this sensor corresponds to the 50 mm on the full frame sensor, but a diaphragm of f 1.8 is equivalent to the same depth of camp or F 3.6 on full frame. In short, after a year I decided to return to the full frame sensor that either mirroless or reflex does not matter except for the lightness speech.
