There is a new BLS-7 battery but no charger included in the kit. I assume that the battery can be charged in-camera. Is that correct?

I have a bunch of Panasonic/Leica micro four third lenses. Are these compatible with this camera with no restrictions especially when it comes to auto-focus?
Asked by: Johnny
Panasonic and Leica Micro Four Thirds lenses can be mounted on the OM SYSTEM PEN Mirrorless Camera (Silver) and there will not be any issues with core features and autofocus. The main limitation would be the lack of Dual IS.

Asked by: Horacio
The OM SYSTEM PEN Mirrorless Camera (Black) uses micro 4/3rd lenses, and most other brands, including Panasonic, should work very well. Until the camera is released and tested, it will only use the camera's built-in 5-axis in-body image stabilization when using third-party lenses.

The OM System Pen has a plastic body instead of metal. How does this affect the durability and longevity of the camera?
Asked by: Arvids
The OM SYSTEM PEN Mirrorless Camera with 14-42mm III Lens (Black) is of solid weatherproof construction, including durable, engineered plastics. The original did not have weatherproof construction. The new body is lightweight and will stand the test of time.
