I agree that 43 shots is still plenty new. But if you want to push it, don't talk to a CSR at Amazon. They are clueless. Have them send you over to customer relations. If that fails, file a...

Awesome little camera. Got the kit for $200 as a refirb and brought it to europe. So much better than lugging around my 7D and so much better than a point and shoot camera

Very tempting. Shipping was $11 to the west coast. Reviews indicate that their demos were almost indistinguishable from new items and they include a 1 yr store warranty.

Just factory checks to make sure the camera is working properly although 43 is a little high. I heard this happen to much more expensive cameras so I wouldn't be worried too much.

This camera is decent though dated (over 2 years old).
However the E-PL1 does not have a focus assist light and in low light it struggles to focus.
A bright lens (f1.7 for example) will help a lot....

To my surprise, the one I received had 43 in shot count and I was expecting 0 since it was advertised as brand new. Is this normal? You can check the shot count via the instructions here.
