Excerpt
In the latter part of 2011, Olympus launched three Digital PEN Micro 4/3 cameras at the same time. The top of the line Olympus PEN E-P3, the mid-tier PEN E-PL3, and the new Olympus PEN E-PM1 Mini.
The three Olympus PENs share a lot of things in common internally. Most of what you get in the flagship Olympus E-P3 is available on the Olympus PEN E-PM1 as well, but with some key features omitted in the most affordable model such as the touch-screen feature, for example.The key differences between the three models are primarily physical size, the features, as the sensor and image processor arent all that different, and the price.Olympus PEN E-PM1 Mini Intro
The Olympus PEN E-PM1 Mini caters to those who are looking to step beyond traditional pocket point-and-shoot camera but want the flexibility of interchangeable lenses and all the features than a larger sensor format brings without sacrificing portability.
Moving from a traditional, fixed-lens point-and-shoot, a Micro 4/3 system camera youll find that the image quality difference is very obvious, particularly in low-light. The response of the camera is much quicker, and the ability to change lenses open up a lot of creative opportunities as well.
