The (Long) Overdue Olympus E-P1 Review

Well kids, I finally got my hands on the video files, so before I head out this fine Indianapolis Friday how about my mini-review of my photowalk experiences with the E-P1 and 14-42mm kit lens?

This is a podcast-enabled post, so if you subscribe to our videos you’ll be getting the video from the end here beamed to you, so don’t worry there.

Getting started, let’s look over the highlights of this beastie:

  • 12 Megapixel 4/3 Sensor
  • TruePic V Processor
  • Smallest body with a DSLR sensor and interchangeable lenses your money can currently buy.
  • 720p HD video
  • Integral Olympus stereo digital audio recorder
  • Art Filters

now-podcastingAs of, well, today, you can see a few new links in the upper right of the blog to subscribe to our “audiocast” and our “videocast“. These options will give you the pages for our custom podcast feeds: one featuring Nick and I’s weekly audio podcast, and the other a feed for our popular Raw Footage series of hands-on videos and reviews.

For those of you who don’t know, this means you can now subscribe to us in your iTunes, Zune, or other mobile device software and have our audiocasts or videos automatically sync to your mobile device of choice (including iPods, iPhones, Zunes, etc)

If this sounds like exactly the sort of thing you want to do (I know I love podcasts on my Zune), check out more after the jump and I’ll tell you how to get going in iTunes and Zune. We’re working on getting these feeds added to the iTunes Store and Zune Marketplace, but until that happens you can use these instructions and be on the bleeding-edge of the Roberts Raw experience.
