EP-1 and EP-2 video capabilities

I am thinking of buying either of the above and am struggling to find detailed information on their video capabilities,

I would like to produce a silly, very unprofessional super 8 inspired video for my brother's wedding - just a bit of fun, but was wondering if either of these cameras would allow that, their specs mention 'art filters'?

anyone any idea?

I haven't tried it yet, but apparently on the E-P2 you can do video with art filters. It looks really fun--pinhole, grainy B&W, etc.

yes that's what I was after 🙂 I will have a play once I can get my hands on one

Don't get your hopes up. The art filters in movie mode is very jerky and renders it to almost useless (for me). Also, focusing can be a bit touchy and if you use AF, it hunts too much and the motor noise is really loud in the recorded movie.
