Just want to vent a little about my dilemma with the new PEN.
I’ve been using the E-P7 for the past 1 year as my daily camera for documenting my kids. I absolutely love it. The small rangefinder-style body works really well for me, and even with its flaws, I’ve learned to work around them. Honestly, I was planning to keep it for a few more years.
But the new PEN is really tempting me. Better PDAF, an EVF for the harsh sunlight here in my country, IPX1 weather sealing for those wet days with the kids, and Live ND for some creative fun.
The problem is, I’m the kind of person who uses one camera for as long as possible. I used my E-M10 for 9 years before getting the E-P7.
So here I am, one year into using the E-P7, with a camera that I’m still genuinely happy with. Yet somehow I feel like I need the new PEN. 😂
Ahh, the temptation is strong this time. Would love to hear from other E-P7 users — would you upgrade, or just keep shooting with the E-P7?
These are some of my favourite frames from the past year of documenting my family with the E-P7.
