OLYMPUS PEN E-PL7: Targeting a specific niche, can the E-PL7 succeed at standing out from its competition?

摘要

Now in its sixth generation, this latest addition to the PEN 'Lite' family, the E-PL7, continues Olympus's efforts to reach out to those who appreciate the smaller, more refined design of the E-PL7's rangefinder style, as opposed to the intentionally chunkier and retro (D)SLR-styled OM-D cameras that have stolen the show at Olympus in recent times. This latest offering features the 16.1-million-pixel sensor that has proved popular in the OM-D E-M5, but as well as the sensor, the E-PL7 shares many of the features from the OM-D E-M10, minus a viewfinder and built-in flash.
