So I’m at the Hotel on Rivington in Manhattan at the Olympus press conference and we’re getting the first hands on with the Olympus E-P1 in North America. Dana Wollman from Laptop was kind enough to be my hand model so these aren’t my hands on the Olympus, but I am shooting with one. I’ve included two test images shot at ISO 200 and ISO 6400 shot with the 14-42mm lens. Oh, I forgot to mention that Olympus has done away with the XD format and gone with SD. Yay!
You can download the JPEG for the ISO 200 image here and the ISO 6400 image here.

Can I have it when you’re done with it? Thanks.
Were you able to test the shutter lag?
I’ll have a full hands-on tonight or tomorrow, Andrew. I’ve been out shooting with it all day.
Also interested on the shutter lag thing. That’s the main thing that sways me away from point-and-shoot cameras.
HI..is EP1 the smallest SLR camera in the market..
Classic camera, good performance
The viewfinder only works at 17mm as well so you may find it unworthy. I’m on my way back from the trip right now so ill be updating this in a bit.
