PreviouslyIi just used my smart phone with I had quite a bit of success with, you would be amazed by what you can do with a photo with different apps etc. Anyway iv just been messing around with my new Olympus e-pl1 since I got it, trying out different photography styles and techniques and posting them on flickr.
