Hi All,
I've got a case of analysis paralysis, and would love some thoughts to help me break out of it. I'm looking to build up an underwater setup, and am stuck between the E-PL2 and the XZ-1, and here is why.
I currently own an E-PL2 with the standard lens, the 9-18mm, and the telephoto lens...also the VF-2 viewfinder. I'm wondering if I should build that up into an underwater kit, or go for an XZ-1. Looking at all my options, even though I currently own the E-PL2 with a couple lenses, it still seems a lot more expensive to go with the E-PL2 based on the following links:
Optical Ocean Olympus PT-EP03 System - Olympus Micro Four Thirds Cameras, Housings & Accessories - Optical Ocean Sales Underwater Photo - 800-359-1295!
Olympus XZ-1 Camera + PT-050 Complete System - Camera/Housing & Lighting Packages - Olympus Point & Shoot Housings & Cameras - Optical Ocean Sales Underwater Photo - 800-359-1295!
Looking at both links, the price is around the same, but with the E-PL2 I still have to invest another 500 dollars to use the wide angle in the way of the Zen Port.
What are your thoughts everyone? Their really is no right or wrong answer I'm thinking, just looking for some opinions to give me food for thought prior to making a decision either way.
Thank you very much in advance for any help!!!!
