I’ve got 4 Oly EPL-1’s that are still mostly functional……except the flash has failed on 3 of them. Plus the onboard capacitor/tiny battery, whatever it is that is supposed to keep date/time settings has failed in all of them so that info is lost with a battery swap and has to be put back in. A nuisance but it takes less than a minute to fix it.

Important note - these cameras have been used almost exclusively in scuba, where the flash is critical to fire the strobes. It’s either a hostile environment, or a protected environment inside the housing, depending on how you interpret the use. Flooding kills them outright, so maybe it’s kind of protected.

Suffice to say, they no longer can take scuba photos since the flash doesn’t work, but they are just fine as general use or outdoor cameras. The hotshoe is still good for external flash, which does not fit in the scuba housing. All lenses are fine.
