At first glance, build quality leaves a good impression. The body is solid and gives a positive impression that only a few corrupt individual keys with a "mushy" feeling the pressure. Multi Control Dial mode rotates relatively easy and can be inadvertently rotated when removing or restoring appliances in your pocket or handbag, and is sometimes necessary to pay attention to it before shooting. Swivel LCD screen is hung on the all-metal construction that is very solid and looks like it can withstand the year of daily rotation and pulling in all directions.
The main menu is easy to use, and many options logically arranged. The most important items such as the ISO value, white balance, and similar settings are adjusted from the selection invokes the "OK" button. Although PEN E-PL5 produces excellent photos already in automatic mode and is suitable for use complete amateurs, showing its importance in the hands of advanced users.
Olympus namely never stingy with options including E-PL5 has a number of details that are missing many professional DSLR cameras, such as wireless control up to three groups of flashes, adjust the speed of continuous shooting 1-8 frames per second, pixel mapping, the possibility of complete redistribution control keys, direct selection of focal points and their size, changing the direction of rotation of the dial, even 6 types bracketing (ISO, WB, Flash, Art filters, HDR, AE), and changes in EV ISO steps, anti-vibration shutter with adjustable delay time, separate correction of all three methods of measuring light ... options have no end!
Li-Ion battery provides enough power for about 300 pictures, but there are still very annoying imprecise indications charge; Pen E-PL5 signal a full battery almost the entire use and just before the end starts blinking red warning. External power charger is standard, what is not case with the latest Sony NEX models.
Although the lenses are removable, most users will most likely permanently use the supplied kit lens: Zuiko 14-42 F/3.5-5.6 II. Really stand out the possibility of concluding which is twice smaller when not in use. Optical is pretty good and if you do not have particularly high demands will serve you for many years.
Size is incredibly small and makes pena smallest mirrorless camera to tržištu.Nažalost, optically visible worse than the kit lens, and it reduces the usability and an aperture of F / 8, which means it needs a lot of light in photography (realistically usable only in daylight ). On the other hand using the built-in Art Filters in the E-PL5 can mask low-quality optics which 15mm lens becomes a very fun toy.
Video recording is possible to have a completely usual Full HD resolution (1920x1080 pixels) at 30 frames per second. Only Sony NEX appliances offer 60fps in Full HD. Although the latest variant of the 14-42 lens problem considerably mitigated, built-in microphone captures sound still motor auto focus.
It pays to be first to market with a particular product, and the best proof of that all Olympus Pen and OMD models in the last year. While Canon bothering with slow focus, Nikon below-average sensor, and Sony has recently had more than NEX camera lens that you could put on it, Olympus continues forward with great strides. It has been for nearly four years since the first PEN and childhood diseases have been resolved, so that the tested E-PL5 one of the most complete and versatile mirrorless camera on the market. Whatever your knowledge of photography, E-PL5 is able to deliver high quality photographs and will not at all restricted to overcome demanding photographic tasks, thanks to the overwhelming options, ready for anything. With these mirrorless, really do not see the reason why to buy big and heavy DSLR.
