Sounds like you got a great deal on your E-PL1! Good job on that.

Now, on to your problem. It sounds to me more like a technique issue than a camera problem. Maybe you could start a new thread and include some samples of unsuccessful photos you tried to take with your E-PL1. No camera is going to be able to magically predict what's going to happen with your kids. My guess is we just need to teach you how to better use your camera. Before you give up on it and buy something else (and find out you still have the same problems), give us a chance to help you with your current camera. I think we can help
