Update : Price is back up to $ 600 . Hope you produce one !
Whether you desire to step up from your smartphone , or downsize from a budget DSLR , aMicro 4/3 cameraoffers bang-up epitome calibre in an sympathetic word form factor . If that sound appealing to you ( and it should ! ) , Amazon today has the capableOlympus E - PM2 with a pair of outfit lensesfor just $ 349 today to get you started .
This camera is the little blood brother of my more - expensiveOlympus E - PL5 , offering the same image quality thatGizmodo loved , with only a modal value dial , obliterable front grip , and ( mostly useless ) reticulating screen excised . The E - PM2 normally get going for around$450-$500 with a single 14 - 42 mm outfit lens , so seeing it for $ 100 less with a 40 - 150 mm telephoto tossed in is a very nice surprise .

Olympus E - PL5 Review : Top - Notch Guts in an Awkward Body
This camera kinsperson is close and dear to my pith , so I can personally advocate theTamrac 3440 Rally Micro Camera Bagto carry your unexampled miniature , and thePanasonic 20 mm f/1.7 pancakelens if you need to raise from the kit lenses with the money you saved . [ Amazon ]
