    Nice shots, that E-PL1 looks to be working well for you. These shots make me wish I had the money to get the Zen dome before my trip in a couple weeks, it looks like even with the kit 14-42mm lens it's a very flexible setup.

    i am finding that it's a lot more capable than people make it sound when comparing to the E-PL2-3 and E-PM1...the kit lens is not bad and the zoom works pretty well. i was gonna get a 14-42II but i think i'll just save the $$$ and either get a 9-18 or a 45mm for macro. i am no longer in a hurry to house my E-PM1 ....

    Yeah, I don't think they've made any huge changes between models. I'd probably go for the 9-18 too. I hope to do the same but need to get the dome first. And if you aren't in a rush you can keep an eye out for any deals that may come along.

    Love the wire coral gobies -- nice catch!

    I love my EPL-1. It's a much more capable camera than I am photographer

    Using the right lens will really make the shot. Getting a wide-angle or macro lens will make a huge difference. FYI, the E-PM1 will focus must faster than the E-PL1 for behavior shots. - Scott
