All the Pen cameras
From the EP1 onwards
Have been a joy to behold and a pleasure to use. Olympus jpegs are consistently excellent and RAW is better. The supplied Olympus Viewer software is excellent and may be all that anyone needs for RAW conversion a
With its flexible display
Great set of controls and generally streamlined design
The Olympus PEN E-PL7 hits quite a few high notes
The editors didn't like
No viewfinder builtin
No smaller than OMD EM10
Selfie mode not compatible with tripods
You can't use the optional viewfinder and a flash at the same time – they both use the same accessory port

It might be a little too complicated for newbies, and the grip could be bigger
A likeable interchangeable-lens model, the Olympus PEN E-PL7's overall package makes an attractive alternative to an advanced compact and has quite a bit to offer as a first ILC....
Great sensor performance, Charming retro design, Decent touchscreen
Underwhelming video capture, Not ideal for bigger hands, Odd tilt-under screen
The Olympus Pen E-PL7 isn't a hit in every respect, but the high-quality build, sensor and processor see it offer a good entry-level MFT option. Next, read more Camera Reviews...
Good-quality, 16.1-million-pixel Live MOS sensor, Metal frame with stylish design, Responsive touchscreen
Vulnerable and fiddly tilting screen, Small and tightly packed controls, No viewfinder
The Olympus Pen E-PL7 is a repackaged Olympus OM-D E-M10, and for that reason alone it enters a lower end of the enthusiast market from a great vantage point. It is capable of producing some superb images and its video is respectable for a camera of its p...

No viewfinder built, in, No smaller than OM, D E, M10, Selfie mode not compatible with tripods

Looks great, Excellent touchscreen, Improved handling, Wi-Fi works a treat, Selfie screen if you fancy it
Incremental improvements for the series, Detail lacks at high-ISO settings, Auto ISO has limited use
Like its E-PL5 predecessor, the E-PL7 at first seems like a small series of steady improvements rolled into the one camera, with a more sophisticated autofocus system, better overall handling and Wi-Fi. But that makes it a solid bit of kit, especially whe...
Abstract: Olympus' new mid-range mirrorless camera, the PEN Lite E-PL7, is all but made for the selfie lover. The E-PL7's display flips downwards 180 degrees and provides an unobstructed view, and you can mount the bundled external flash for a fill-in flash. The d...
