Some pics with a PL1

my feeble attempt at wide angle--these were hiding under a ledge at 2m of water at Lembeh Straits, Sulawesi, Indonesia.

Some PEN pics from the other side of the pool...taken by my wife. The mouth of the Dahlia anemone and the 2 nudies with the Dyron close-up lens; rest with 14-42mm only.
My Pen arrives tomorrow and I'm afraid, I won't be using my E520 very much anymore after seeing the results of the PEN!
I've been taking similar pics and it's really difficult to beat the quality.

very nice

Very nice job by your wife, hard to believe the 14-42 "kit" lens can do such a nice job. I am still impressed with mine.

Pennywise, what did you use for lighting? Just natural, or a strobe?

Dannybot, she used two Inon D2000 strobes; both cam and strobes on manual.

Thanks, still waiting to see if I can swing one of these maybe for Christmas...

yeah first time with a pen. was using a G10 before and i am absolutely blown away by the picture quality and ease of operations (after reading the posts on this forum of course). price-wise i am very satisfied with the value for money.

my wish list for Oly is manual focus on the casing, a dome port (end-user replaceable), ditch the space for the EVF 2, better ergonomics for the bulge for the right hand, better bouancy when fitted with 2 strobes...(it goes straight down to davy jones locker when released) and a flip adapter for wet lenses instead of a pry-to-open.
