    Haha, you are too kind sea_sea! I also think you should post some of your amazing pics to show him what to expect! :)

    @Atkinson
    the reason you probably settled on the e-p1/2 was there in built Inge stabalisation. Yeh your right the e-p2 is a lot of money, I wouldn't bother. You shouldreally consider the E-PL1 though because compared to the e-p1 and e-p2

    it has sharper images
    in built IS, which only 1 stop less than the ep1/2 (this difference is almost unnoticable)
    it can take an electronic viewfinder unlike the e-p1.
    The E-PL1 has better ergonomics.
    Better menu system
    in built flash with the feature to bounce it off the ceilling indoors.

    The only real downside is that it is a plastic body and may not
    feel as solid as the e-p1/2. However people who own both say they are both great build quality.

    If you not interested in unbuilt flash, and evf then e-p1 is a beautiful bargain that's for sure.

    If you are you could get the E-PL1 14-42 kit and later buy the evf totaling around $680. You should be reminded that the evf of the e-p2 and e-pl1 (they are the same exact evf btw) is incredibly sharp and gets rave reviews.

    Hope that helps.
