My issues with focus and bad lenses on the EP-1 MAY be coming to an end

Olympus has just released a firmware update for its E-P1 Micro Four Thirds camera. The new version (1.1)  improves the camera operation in Continuous AF mode.

The company has also posted firmware updates for the E-P1′s kit lenses: the M. Zuiko Digital ED 14-42mm 1:3.5-5.6 and the M. Zuiko Digital 17mm 1:2.8 pancake lens.

The updates promise to improve the autofocus operation of both the lenses- which is exactly the problem that I had with them!

Firmware updates can be downloaded via the Olympus Master/Studio software. In case you’ve lost the disk the link to the software is below.
