Can anyone verify this works with E-PL1? The product description says it does, but I would rather hear it from someone who has already tried it...

Nothing works with the E-PL1. It has a non-functioning USB remote connection, deliberately disabled by Olympus. It is the only Pen/OM-D that will not accept any remote cable/trigger.

I use mine with an E-PL5. I really doubt that Olympus made too many changes with the USB interface. However my combination works flawlessly. HTH

According to the specs on Amazon, the VF-3 works with all Pen cameras so it should work with the EP-2. There is firmware built into the camera that controls how the body interacts with various attachments. In my case I have an EPL-1 and the firmware was too old to support the VF-3 so I just had to download a newer version. You may not have to with the EP-2 but if you do, it can be done through the Olympus website.

I only own the EP-5 not the E-PL5 but from what I have read it is compatible.

Aparently the same cable works on both!!You must state the camera brand and model when ordering!!I have both but have used it only on the E-M1!!The choice of cables is more by camera maker than model!!Albert E

A reviewed said it worked with his e260 beautifully, so I'm guessing it does.EDIT: M. Lashus wrote a review saying the e280 DOES NOT WORK correctly with the speaker set. Only the headphone jack can connect to the speakers for sound, but the Sansa can't even fit where it's supposed to. So this is a no go.

i use it on the e-pl1 and it works fine. Great candid lens. Be aware its f8, though and limited focus.

I too have a Konica Autoreflex TC Camera. I purchased the 4/3rd adapter to use all my Konica Mount lenses (Makinon, Tamron, Hexar, etc) with my new O-MD camera and this works well. Not sure how this would go on the E-PL1, but if a 4/3rd mount compatable it probably should work. Geoff S.

I've never tried it with that body, but it should be compatible with any Olympus body, including the E-PL5. I've used the previous model, the VF-2 on the E-PL5 and this one is compatible with the VF-2, so it should work. A major improvement is that it locks in place.

E-PL1 Lens Mount is micro4/3, then it fit but it only works aperture priority only as well as focal length will be almost double.

I can't be 100% posiitive without actually trying it on that camera but since the E-M5 is supposed to use the same micro 4/3 mount lenses that might E-PL1 camera uses, I don't see why it wouldn't.

I don't own an E-P2 but this chart seems to indicate it will work. I just updated the firmware on my PL-1...if you already have the latest firmware, you may not need to update anything further (that's what happened with mine). http://www.olympus.co.jp/en/support/imsg/digicamera/compati/pen_optical.cfm

It works well with the E-PL1. I bought it for my son's E-PL1, and he's been using it everywhere. He got some great shots at the Super Bowl from the mid-level seats.

It works with both my E-PL5 and OMD E-M5. According to Olympus, both of my cameras use the Olympus remote cable RM-UC1, so if the E-PL2 works with the RM-UC1, I believe it will.

I am having the same problem with mine, except mine has never worked. I got the E-2 error the first time I plugged it in. Have you figured out what the problem is?
