The editors didn't like

  • Screen resolution still low
  • Viewfinder takes up the hot shoe
  • Menus are complicated
  • Battery life not good enough
  • Awkward mode dial
  • Slow autofocus
  • Pricey
  • High price
  • No built-in flash
  • Pricey for anyone buying into the new system from scratch
  • Occasional white balance issues
  • Retractable lens has to be unfurled before powering the camera up to prevent error message
  • Kit lens has to be unfurled before powering the camera up
  • 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.
  • Sluggish autofocus
  • Short battery life
  • Low-resolution LCD
  • Lacks on-camera flash
  • No onboard flash
  • Focusing can be a little unreliable
  • Price

  • Abstract:  No more wild speculation, or waiting for the actual confirmation. Olympus has just unveiled its second Micro Four Thirds camera, aptly dubbed as the Olympus PEN E-P2. Of course, with an update to its Micro Four Thirds lineup, we'll also be expecting some ...

  • Es una cámara de 12 megapixeles ergonómica y portátil. Tiene una salida HDMI para poder conectarla a un televisor de alta definición
  • Tarda en enfocar cuando hay poca luz en la escena. No cuenta con flash integrado; hay que comprar accesorios aparte para poder explotarla al máximo
  • Recomendada para aficionados que tengan conocimientos sobre fotografía y quieran un equipo con diseño retro para usarla como segunda opción. Su precio hace que no cualquier usuario pueda comprarla, sin embargo, es una cámara versátil....

  • Abstract:  Cuando se lanzó la Olympus P1, el público admiró el atrevido paso dado por Olympus. La cámara PEN era y es en muchos aspectos una cámara única, aunque Panasonic ha lanzado ahora una cámara similar. El diseño de la cámara Olympus PEN P2 es casi idéntic...

  • Le viseur électronique de qualité,  Le capteur stabilisé,  Les améliorations en vidéo HD
  • L'absence d'améliorations techniques, notamment en ce qui concerne le bruit numérique ou la mise au point, lente sur le Pen EP-1,  L'écran de 230 000 pixels seulement,  Le prix élevé

  • Qualité du viseur amovible, Construction irréprochable et style rétro, Compacité, notamment avec le 17 mm, Ergonomie générale
  • Écran toujours aussi peu défini, Viseur occupant la griffe flash, Complexité des menus, Autonomie insuffisante
  • Mise à jour de détails du E-P1, le E-P2 ne corrige quasiment aucun de ses défauts — en particulier, l'écran reste déplorable pour un appareil de cette gamme. Reste un viseur absolument splendide et, pour l'heure, unique....

  • Au premier abord, l'Olympus Pen E-P2 est un appareil très séduisant, son look rétro et sa belle construction feront certainement "craquer" quelques photographes qui souhaitent retrouver le contact d'un appareil d'antan. Olympus est un acteur de longue...

  • sehr gute Bildqualität, Accessory Port, schnelle Reaktionszeit, hochwertiges Gehäuse
  • kein Blitzlicht, langsamer Autofokus, mäßiger LCDBildschirm, Bildrauschen ab ISO 800, Akku schnell leer, teuer
  • Die Olympus Pen E-P2 ist mit ihrem modularen Konzept ganz klar eine Systemkamera für Profis, die viel Wert auf Flexibilität legen. Da sogar ein Blitzlicht fehlt, können Sie sich ihre Olympus Pen E-P2 ganz individuell zusammenstellen. Allerdings ist di...
