      • ccrap on 11/10/2013 - 10:27

        I've got it too and love it. IMHO the ultimate compact travel camera given the pic quality and zoom. Cheapest price was around the $150 mark during a Myer online clearance sale a few months back. Even at $200 its a great bargain and highly recommended.

    Is the Olympus PEN Mini E-PM1 is a good camera?

    I am waiting for the SOny Rx100 M2 prices to go down but it is taking forever plus i dont have dont have a budget for that any more?

    • jakentta on 11/10/2013 - 10:29
      +1

      E-PM1 is pretty decent camera, but not top of the line in any way. Quite speedy AF and operation, decent image quality etc. But lacks a grip, could use more buttons for quick access to functions and the newer Olympus Micro Four Thirds cameras, such as E-PM2, have much better 16 megapixel sensor. Also the included kit lens is not that special. As a system though, MFT has some great lenses available, especially primes, and I think it's a good system to buy into. And for this price the E-PM1 is a good choice to start with.

      • junk3569 on 11/10/2013 - 10:43

        Thank you Jekentta,

        The panasonic GF3 comparing to this one? I am not good with cameras and i just want to point and shoot.

        • jakentta on 11/10/2013 - 10:52
          +1

          There's a pretty good comparison there halfway the page:
          http://www.cameralabs.com/reviews/Olympus_E-PM1/verdict.shtm…
          I'd say they pretty equal cameras, except for the image stabilizer on E-PM1. And generally Olympus' jpeg quality straight out of the camera is said to be better than Panasonic's but that also a matter of taste. The included 14mm prime lens in the GF3 twin lens kit makes it very interesting though. Ideally I'd get the prime lens from Panasonic and the body from Olympus!

  • spythere10 on 11/10/2013 - 10:12

    Now these are real bargains also:

    Samsung NX11 Twin Lens Kit (18-55mm & 20mm) = $263
    - 20mm 2.8 lens costs $230+ on eBay by itself.
    http://www.harveynorman.com.au/samsung-nx11-digital-camera-t…

    Sony NEX-5R Twin Lens Kit = $597
    - This is minimum $200 cheaper than all HK import shops let alone anything local.
    - But this seems super low in stock. Good luck finding one…

  • vash12 on 11/10/2013 - 10:20

    So tempted to get the Panasonic Lumix DMC-GF3. But if I add a prime lens on top of that, it will be another 300 bux. I guess I will wait until the rx100 to go down T_T.

    Is the Samsung NX11 good camera?

        This is a great bargain - you get a cheaper price ($285 v $296) and an extra 14mm lens! The other twin lens option (14-42mm+45-200mm) is also great for $338 http://www.harveynorman.com.au/panasonic-lumix-dmc-gf3-dslr-…

        • alphaomega on 11/10/2013 - 11:24

          What are the difference in the lenses for those new to all this?

        • ozjaki on 11/10/2013 - 12:03

          14mm 2.5 lens is a very compact prime (non-zoom-able) lens with a faster aperture. So it's good for portability, indoor photography and overall has a better image quality center to corner than a typical zoom lens.

          14-42mm lens is a standard 3x zoom lens for everyday shots.
          45-200mm lens is roughly 3x to 14x (equivalent) telephoto zoom lens.

        • lplau on 11/10/2013 - 16:05

          The 14mm f2.5 is a pretty good lens for a photographer which is under heavy budget.

          Produces pretty good photos, i find it sometimes too wide which is why I sold it off and bought a Pana 20mm f1.7.

          Awesome lens, crisp photos and does extremely well under low light. Does everything from scenery photos to portraits reasonably well. The lens is also super fast. I paired the Pana 20mm f1.7 with a Olympus FL36, made it a camera which I cannot put down. Low light indoors photos are extremely crisp allowing me to take photos at ISO 100 along with the fast aperture.

          So I would highly suggest the 14mm f2.5 for any beginners since it is excellent value, from $150 for 14mm f2.5 to $400 for 20mm f1.7.

        • alphaomega on 11/10/2013 - 16:38

          Thanks for the advice. I bought the PANA DMC-GF3 with the two larger lenses & I'd like to shoot macro. Are either of these lenses good for that or should I buy a dedicated macro lens? If so, where do you buy your lenses from? Cheers.

        • skatoz on 12/10/2013 - 11:47

          I've had the Olympus E-PM1 paired with the Pana 20mm for a year now and although I love the pocketable size, I feel that the controls, low light performance and video warping leave me wanting. The lens seems very capable so I am thinking of just getting a new body. What would be a good upgrade to improve those three areas and still keep it small?

      • Squeezy on 11/10/2013 - 13:26

        If you want quality then get the twin lens kit with the 14mm Pancake ( These sell by themselves for $300-500 ).

        If you want versatility get the twin Zoom lens kit

        • kobrien456 on 11/10/2013 - 13:31

          I just bit the bullet and went for versatility. Having buyer's remorse and now want quality! (Face palm)

        • alphaomega on 11/10/2013 - 14:25

          Why is the fixed prime lens better than the zoom lens?

        • lplau on 11/10/2013 - 16:07

          Nah you won't be able to sell the 14mm Pancake for that much.
          Max you'd get is around $170 since you can get it from HK from Ebay for around $190.

          Lol, for $400-500 i'd buy the Olympus 17mm f1.8 or the Panasonic 20mm f1.7, it would be stupid to buy the 14mm f2.5 which is a inferior lens.

        • lplau on 11/10/2013 - 16:11

          Prime Lenses are better since they usually have better glass and faster since it doesn't need to variate due to the zoom.

          Depending on what you do, Pros usually own every focal lengths so they can harness the faster apertures which allows the lens to get more light in.

          Read up on Apertures and F Stop Numbers that will give you an idea why Prime Lenses are better than Zoom Lenses and what the F number means.

          By having a faster lens, you can set the ISO lower which decreases the compensation made by the lens/software therefore less grainy pictures.

          Have you ever tried to take a photo in a dark scene and you see it super grainy, it is most likely the camera set the ISO extremely high (like ISO2000) so you can actually see something instead of just seeing a black photo.

        • Squeezy on 11/10/2013 - 16:33

          Agreed you can get the pancake cheaper for around the $200-250 new if you shop around, but you wont find an Olympus 17mm or the Pano 20mm for $200 new. They are another step up again. Plenty of shops though do list the 14mm for high prices eg http://www.camerastore.com.au/panasonic-lumix-g-14mm-f2-5-as…

          Primes have less moving parts so generally better image optically. The Zoom lenses in the cheap range also arent that "fast" in terms of maximum F Stop. Fast lenses bring in more light so are better in low light.

  • simmo71 on 11/10/2013 - 10:32

    Thanks OP, got the Samsung NX11 Twin Lens Kit

    • Albert Hall on 11/10/2013 - 14:11

      I also got the NX11, the 20mm Pancake alone is worth $300. Very happy.

  • congo on 11/10/2013 - 10:36

    Looking for one that can print the date hardcoded onto the picture?

    • jakentta on 11/10/2013 - 10:38

      Why would you want that? I don't think any modern camera does that. They all, however, store the date in the EXIF data and there are programs (such as http://www.betterjpeg.com/stamping.htm) you can use to write that on the photo itself on a PC.

      • congo on 11/10/2013 - 10:51

        I tried convincing her otherwise, but no luck!

        • jakentta on 11/10/2013 - 10:55

          I do understand that when all we had was paper prints and it was very easy to later forget when exactly each photo was taken. These days with digital photos each contain that information itself, I think it's not relevant at all.

    • cintamami on 11/10/2013 - 11:57

      a lot of ppl will be flogging off their 55-210 due to someone's comment in the other post. I think the 55-210 goes for $250 on ebay, so you could probably easily flog them off for $200, which makes your camera only cost you $235.
