The biggest improvement in the new E-P1 firmware seems to be in face detection. It makes portrait shooting quite a bit easier...
Just wave the E-P1 in the general direction of your subject, wait for the white box to highlight the face and squeeze the shutter release button... you should get a green box on the face where focus has locked on and shoot.
E-P1 + ZD 35-100mm f2 using CDAF with fast face detect.
1/160s f/2.0 at 57.0mm iso200
...and in much lower light, here's a shot with the ZD 50 wide open at f2, ISO 4000
E-P1 + ZD 50mm f2
1/100s f/2.0 at 50.0mm iso4000
With the 20mm f1.7, in body stabilisation, fast face detection and great high ISO performance, the E-P1 will be an excellent compact low light option.
Kind Regards
