Ok not for magazine quality publication etc but has anyone here used a camera along the lines of the pen-1 in a studio with a trigger?

If so maybe a link to some results on flikr or something?

Now they are so cheap i was thinking of having a go with one as id always thought about buying a 4/3. I wont bother though if they cant fire triggers.

I use my G5 in the studio for product photography (with RF-602)

Here is an example (25mm Panasonic Summilux, f8, ISO 160, 1/100th):

PS. You need to make sure the camera you're looking at has a hotshoe flash....

Thanks, i was hoping they would work the the 602's as i have a whole set of them.
Do 4/3 have a slow sync speed?

The G5 is 1/160th, but 1/125th sometimes still gets a darker region at the top of the image. 1/100th seems fine for the stuff I do (but then flash period defines the shutter speed in the studio anyway).

The OM-D EM-5 is 1/250th sync speed FWIW...
