That's the one. I like it a lot. It's definitely the best PEN camera Olympus has ever made. I've been shooting with the monochrome profile all day. It tries to emulate Tri-X. It doesn't look exactly like the Tri-X I've shot, but it does look nice. It feels like a baby X-Pro to me, and ever bit as solid. Very nice street camera. I've only owned it for a few hours, though, I might write something up on it in a few days!

If you plant half a seed, this is what you get...
morning in Calgary with the sun coming up behind me, love the contrast ... 70mm, 800 ISO, f/2.8, 1/80 sec
Really pleased to hear you like it, mine is on pre-order and I am hoping to get it early next week. This will be my first 4/3 camera and really looking forward to it. I recently picked up a little pentax 110 auto and expired film which is helping fill the gap tho
Yes please... I am interested too. How pocketable is it? I am getting frustrated at my beloved RX100. Starting to feel the ISO performance a bit of a problem - first world problems and all.

It could easily fit into a jacket pocket with a prime lens attached, especially with a pancake like the Panasonic 14mm f/2.5. But even my Olympus 25mm and 45mm lenses are quite small and light. If I get some time, I'll include some size comparisons in a blog post or something. Maybe compare it with a 25mm f/1.8 to a Sony A7II w/55 f/1.8 attached. Similar field of view.
I don't have a RX100 to compare it to, but I'd image ISO sensitivity would be a little better. It's a larger sensor, and Olympus IBIS is second to none.
Basically I need to just recruit some of you guys to help me start a camera review blog! We'd have fun playing with cameras!

As long as you can handle the guilt of being an enabler of our GAS..

Another from a brief walk in central Manchester. Difficult with the amount of contrast in the scene. Comments always appreciated.
