You've to go into the menu system to change ISO, AF/drive mode and WB but just often do you do that ?

I am afraid, I do change AF and WB quite frequently and ISO occasionally. Luckily all of them have a direct access button on my E-P1. Placing a tag for the right WB in the RAW-file at the picture taking stage, saves udles of time at the post-processing stage <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

What I find annoying about the Sony is the lack of a hot-shoe. A Metz 54-MZ4i on an E-P1 makes such a nice and unbalanced combo <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/ohmy.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' />. To be honest the Metz balances better on my E-300, there is no question. Though everything put together I surprisingly often end up with the Metz on-top of my Pen. Right now I am in a phase: If I want a flash, I mean it.
But I don't want to bad-mouth the Sony for you. I can see its appeal. If it works for you it works for you. Nobody can argue with that. Any real pictures to share?
