THE PEN IS NOW MIGHTIER: OLYMPUS EXPANDS THE POWER AND PERFORMANCE OF THE E-P1 WITH THE NEW E-P2 An ED 14-42mm f3.5/5.6 Zuiko Digital Zoom Lens and EVF kit and a 17mm f2.8 Zuiko Digital Zoom Lens and EVF kit will release some time in January of 2010 with both sharing a similar $1099 USD suggested retail price. Software-wise, a Continous Autofocus (C-AF) Tracking System should speed up relatively lackluster focus times on the original EP-1. Other major changes include a standard articulating VF-2 electronic viewfinder that enables the user to have a different framing perspective, as well as a new accessory slot for add-ons such as microphones. ![]() While the camera’s aesthetics and body are largely unchanged, a new colorway is among the tweaks to the EP-1.
