Amature Photographer
Prior to purchasing this camera, I was shooting with a Canon T3i. I have now put the T3i away and find myself taking this little camera with me. Once you turn the warm feature off, this camera takes the best pictures I've ever seen.

Bring on the fun!
I am a huge gearhead when it comes to cameras and must have read 20+ reviews on this camera before I purchased one. Upon arrival I was very pleased to see that the second hand model I purchased was flawless.

The perfect hill-walking camera format
Terrific camera, small bulk for high quality images. To me a perfect compromise of size and weight against end results.

Olympus, along with Panasonic, helped to create the Micro Four Thirds standard and now they've attempted to perfect it with their new model that improves both on the predecessors and other cameras in their lineup-it even includes the same 16 megapixel sensor as their flagship model, the OM-D E-M5.

Olympus PEN Lite E-PL5
Olympus's PEN Lite E-PL5 is the fourth generation product in its line and the best PEN camera to date in our opinion. While it could be seen as an incremental update rather than a major re-build, it has the same 16.1-megapixel LiveMOS sensor and TruePic VI image processor as the renowned OM-D E-M5.
Pros:
- You want a smart-looking mirrorless camera with interchangeable lenses
- raw file capture plus in-camera image stabilisation and effective dust reduction technology
- You'd like Full HD video recording with stereophonic sound
- You'd appreciate relatively fast autofocusing.
Cons:
- You require a built-in viewfinder and/or flash
- You have large hands and/or limited dexterity
