    Having been through a load of cameras recently:
    EPL1 + Panasonic pancake lens is great, image quality is fantastic. Set up costs about £600-700.
    I had a Canon s90 which overall is the best camera I owned, I sold that to get the EPL1 and in the end found the EPL1 a little too big. I like travelling light, so the canon is very slim and pocketable. The Olympus is around your neck smacking your kid in the head everytime you bend to pick them up.
    So I sold the EPL1 and now have the Canon s95 which is great. May get a 4/3 camera again at some point, just hate carrying so much 'money' around with me all the time.

    EPL1 + Pancake
    For film Olympus MJU2 / MJU
    LCA if you like fucking about a bit.

    But, just take some pictures. Film is nice when scanned for the same reason printmaking is nice - the unexpected.
    Digital is nice because you can take a million shots and find the good one!
