 The Olympus E-PL7 is very similar to the Olympus E-PL5, but has some very interesting improvements, especially in view of the realization of autofotos or selfies. Its screen is a three-inch LCD with 1.04 million dots that has won freedom of movement, allowing us to fully rotate 180 degrees, so we can see the frame as we do a photo. Also when we put the screen in this position, the camera enters selfie mode automatically sets the zoom angle. It also has a way of custom timer which can make up to three photos per second, so that can change the pose in each. The Olympus Image Share connects to your smartphone simply scanning a QR code on the phone.
