Big brother to the E-PL1, and released at the start of the year, is the similarly specified yet more obviously retro-designed 12.3-megapixel E-P2. Like its cheaper sibling, this hybrid camera comes with a new accessory port allowing the attachment of...

Not long after Olympus introduced it first Micro Four-Thirds camera, the PEN EP-1, a second in the digital PEN series appeared. While the PEN EP-2 is essentially the same as the PEN EP-1 reviewed last year, it does have some extra features to entice se...
  • The E-P2 is a great and versatile little camera, if a touch expensive. Olympus was fast to act on the concerns raised by the release of the E-P1 and the result is a much better camera than the original digital PEN ever was. Having addressed some if no...

The follow-up to the beautiful, but bank balance-battering E-P1, the Olympus E-P2 adds an accessories slot, which means you can add a proper viewfinder, so you don’t have to frame your shots using the stunning 3-inch LCD on the back. However, you do ne...
  • Everything that made the E-P1 so easy to recommend remains on its successor. The black metal body will delight fans of retro camera style, but it’s about more than looks. The 14-42mm lens which comes as part of the basic bundle is great and gives it a DSLR style feel.Images look stunning, with the chance to take pin-hole and diorama shots using the on-board art filters. This is a camera aimed str...
  • At £899 for the basic package, you’ll need a lot of spare cash to get involved. That doesn’ tinclude the viewfinder which you’ll need to pay extra for. Also, the added features are barely different to the E-P1. That’s not to say this isn’t a stunning, sleek camera that takes truly luscious and detailed shots, just that it costs a tad too much for our liking.
  • The E-P2 keeps up the Olympus tradition of churning out cameras that really are head and shoulders above the competition. Just be aware you’ll need to stump up a substantial amount for the basic camera and lens package, and that’s before you get the ex...

Second generation Micro Four Thirds DSLR/compact hybrid Olympus second-generation Micro Four Thirds system digital ‘hybrid’ appears at first identical to last year’s E-P1 in both 1950s/60s design and up-to-the minute specification, incorporating 1280x7...
  • Less major departure more minor refinement over the already excellent E-P1. If you’re prepared to pay a premium for the useful extra of the EVF, build quality should ensure years of service...

For taking professional-looking photos a digital SLR (DSLR) is best, but they’re not as convenient to lug around as a pocket snapper. Clearly we need someone to offer the best of both worlds. Enter the Olympus E-P2, just eight months after the E-P1, an...

  • Early adoptors that bought into Olympus' Pen concept with the E-P1 shouldn't feel aggrieved at the appearance of its doppelganger a few months later – the E-P2 is not enough of a technological jump to prompt an upgrade. Those looking for a very high-quali...
