According to the announcement - is here. Today, the official premiere of Olympus E-P1, which is the body of the first companies in the Micro Four-thirds. Model, which was announced almost from the time of the creation of a new standard of style refers to the tiny analog SLR Series Pen F.

Olympus E-P1 is the first Japanese camera manufacturer in the Micro Four Third System. What this system is different from others? We remind the summary: the absence of the mirror is different, and thus, prism and viewfinder. The camera retains the matrix of the same size as the Four Third system and the ability to exchange lenses, but due to design changes that may be noticeably smaller. For more details on this subject refer to the article archive. The new Olympus E-P1 is not only a small pocket on the contrary (such as a camera with interchangeable optics) - measures 121 mm x 70 mm x 36 mm and weighs only 335 grams. Sizes can be compared to advanced compact (the Canon G10, Nikon P6000 or DP1/DP2 Sigma). Style refers to the little SLR Series Pen F, which record images in the so-called. a half. References can be a nice historical addition, but most important are the possibilities and features offered by E-P1. The manufacturer has applied the matrix Hi Speed Live MOS with a total number of pixels of 13.1 megapixels, of course, compatible with the standard 4 / 3 (dimensions of 17.3 x 13 mm, aspect ratio 4:3). There were plenty of two important elements - image stabilization (by the manufacturer 4 times longer EV) and the cleaning system matrix. The treatment takes a new image processor TruePic image of V. The set allows you to work on the basis of the sensitivity of ISO100 to ISO6400, serial images at 3 kl / s and faster processing of artistic filters. The lack of height has forced the use of autofocus based on contrast detection. AF Olympus in the E-P1 has 11 fields.

E-P1 recorded movies and have noted that this feature has not been treated. The maximum resolution is 1280x720p at 30 kl / s. When you register you can use video sequences Artistic filters, auto-focus, aperture changes (hence - the depth of focus). One approach may take up to 5 minutes, and you may at any time and take a picture. On the side of Olympus E-P1 included HDMI jack, so you will not be a problem with a fast-watching recorded material on the HD TV. Small dimensions of the camera necessitated some compromises. The camera was not room for a built-in flash. You can use the one already known flash system, or a new, tiny tubes FL-14. Seats were also on the built-in viewfinder.
