THE GOOD: Excellent build quality; very good photo quality; can shoot raw+JPEG in every mode, including Art Filters and iAuto.

Olympus PEN E-PL1 Review
Olympus took most of what was great about the first two Pen cameras and dropped it into the E-PL1 digital camera. From the 12-megapixel sensor to the high quality optics and excellent output quality, the Olympus E-PL1 loses almost nothing while shedding a couple hundred dollars from the price, and getting a grip in the bargain.

DCRP Review: Olympus E-PL1
With the E-PL1, Olympus has created a compact, user-friendly interchangeable lens camera that is -- dare I say -- better than its more expensive siblings (the E-P1 and E-P2) in most respects. Sure, it doesn't have the eye-catching retro design, but the E-PL1 produces better looking photos (especially at high ISOs), has faster AF and continuous shooting speeds, and a built-in flash.
