Reviewer score 67%The E-P7 puts in a very solid performance and produces some lovely images. It captures shots with an impressive dynamic range, while the all-purpose metering system does a good job of producing balanced exposures. The lack of a headphone and microphone socket, and the fact that the screen tilts from the bottom, don't make it as appealing as other video-orientated cameras like the Sony ZV-1.
