there is an in depth review at dpreview http://www.dpreview.com/news/0907/09072903olympusEp1review.asp

Just thought i would let you know incase anyone has not seen it. im about to read it now...B

what i understood from this review that it has an adapter for the MF Zuiko lenses is that right?

 

[davpen]

It does, but it's expensive - around £150. There are sure to be cheaper ones from third party manufacturers coming soon.

There's also an adapter for full-size 4/3 lenses which should give autofocus on all of them. That's priced similarly but apparently there's a slightly cheaper Panasonic version which does exactly the same job.

 

[ammadoux]

it is not available yet but olympus announced it, it should be good for people who have wide selection of OM lenses, they also announced some limitations but did not say what are they.
and also noticed that using it will not allow to show the aperture value when using the A mode or M mode. i don't know weather this is a major draw back or not.

would imagine it will offer slow to slower focus speed with any of the newer Z lens,, just not very much batter in there to start driving large amounts of glass around,,
