Hi everybody, it's just arrived my m39-mu43 adapter, so yesterday I had a little walkaround in my city to test it with CV 50/1.5 (other topic) and CV 90/3.5
After a few minutes I needed to understand "how to do", I must say the combo is really nice and a joy to use, the in-focus objects does really "pop-up", and people see you like a tourist with a compact camera, they don't really notice you, and thisi a huge advantage
Image quality also is superb, and so I'm really happy with my new camera
Thank you for your visit

Great stuff!
Yes, I find MF surprisingly easy for such an "amateur" camera. I wait for the image in the finder to show "moire" and fire. Pretty easy.
I can see my E-PL1 replacing my DSLR for any situation that doesn't involve action. It's already my go-to travel/walkaround camera.

Speaking Frankly
The E-LP1 with the EVF is the new-age RF equivalent body. My M-mount lenses from CV 25/4 to 40/1.4 would be usable. I would buy the Olympus 17mm pancake lens to round-out the outfit.
Alternatively, I would buy the optical VF and mask out the FoV for the longer lenses...easy enough to do.

Wow that's a really nice shot -- nice light, colour, and moment.

Yes, the "moire trick" works, but you need the right subject (shirts with stripes, house roofs, ecc...). When i can use it, it's a great way to focus ;-)

If you can, buy the EVF, it's amazingly good, a bit ugly but a joy to use

yes, one of the advantages of the M43s cameras 2x crop factor. I used to use my Summicron 90/2 on my EP1, turning into a 180mm/f2!

I use my 90/2.8 Elmarit on my Ep-1 all the time for Macro style shots. Especially flowers. Oly colours are awesome and Elmarit OOF areas are so smooth. Would love to use EVF but I don't think it works on EP-1.

No, you cannot put an EVF on the E-P1
