Prototype Olympus Micro FourThirds camera
24 September 2008
Olympus is showing off two prototype cameras at the big Photokina show in Germany, and they’ve let out a few details today. If I can find some more details on these two, I’ll update the news item.
The first camera (which has no name yet) will bridge the gap between the E-520 and E-3. Olympus uses the phrase “Creative Photo Expression Function” a lot in the press materials, though I’m not exactly sure what that means. Here’s some more concrete information:
- World’s fastest autofocus system (11-point)
- Image stabilization with 5 steps of compensation
- Splash and dustproof
- 1/8000 sec max shutter speed
- Rotating LCD display
- High speed contrast detect AF with face detection
- Ships in the first quarter of 2009
