Amazing camera! for digital cameras

I love this camera! Takes such sharp pictures. The specs were easy to understand. I'll take a look at the manual, but haven't got around to it yet. I easily found most of what I needed and this is my first Olympus and also my first SLR. I think it's great that you can program all the buttons the way you want them to. So comfortable! I set one of them to switch between auto and manual focus with one touch. My favorite lenses are the 17mm f/1.8 (and what amazing shots you take at night!) and 14mm. The 42mm zoom is the lens I use every day. I also found the Rokinon 7.5mm Fisheye which takes great shots. I bought a 40-150mm zoom but haven't had a chance to use it yet. One thing I wasn't aware of (but should have been - lots of reviews will tell you) is that since it's 4/3, this camera's focal length doubles. I didn't know much about it as it was my first DSLR but for example a 14-42mm lens is actually equivalent to a 28-84mm lens. That's the main reason I got the fisheye - so I can photograph things closer to me since I've automatically zoomed in on everything.

Pros
  • Intervalometer and time-lapse movies
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
