Featherweight beauty
Elegant power within
Treasure trove for creative exploration
Featherweight beauty.
Photography can be a beautiful and enjoyable adventure. The Olympus PEN E-P7’s small size and light weight are practically unnoticeable, but the E-P7 is a sight to behold. Drawn with lines taken from a true classic, the E-P7 is elegant and compact, making the crafting of your photos an exquisite experience. With two distinct colors to choose from, you decide the tone of your story.
See the world in a different color.
The E-P7 is a treasure trove for creative exploration. With a flick of the front color/monochrome profile switch, you can instantly enhance your creative expression. Dive deeper and you’ll find more tools for inspiration, including film presets, Art Filters, and other unique creative features. For every photographic passion, there’s a way to capture it with the E-P7.
Pretty and powerful.
At its core, the E-P7 is a combination of brilliant sensor technology, powerful image processing, and precision lenses. This makes for easy operation, fast focus speeds, and clever creative features – all enhancements from previous PEN cameras. With a vast choice of compatible lenses to suit your style of photography, there are no boundaries to your creative pursuits.
More than meets the eye.
Clever at heart
