Some images with Leica lenses (90mm,28mm,35mm) and others with the EP1 kit lens(14-42). U2 show with kit lens. I'm impressed by the RAW images as I could clearly pull out some info the small jpegs could not. While I'm clearly spoiled my D3 image quality, the EP1 delivers high quality images a small chip P&S only wishes it could do. While I'd say the images are similar to APS size sensors, they do appear softer than a sDLR image. High ISO is very useable at 800-1600iso. I did use 2500iso and it does an okay job. The AF speed is not made for fast moving objects, though this can be done by using manual modes. If the E-P1 was under $600, I would own one just for the ability to use Leica lenses. www.zoeicaimages.com/Ireland2009EP1 Chris NOLA
