The E-PL1 is the low end version of the E-P1/E-P2. It has all the faults without the better build quality and with a simplified interface. The E-P1/E-P2 are way long in the tooth for a M43 camera. ...

The NEX series has an APS-C which is the same as many DSLR's. The 18-55 is pretty...

Subjective comment! Look at the specs, compare it to others and objectively conclude that it's the worse M43 camera ever made.
