Description
| The Olympus E-30 12.3 Megapixel Digital SLR Camera is for photographers looking to turn ordinary moments into extraordinary masterpieces. Autofocus Live View with Multiple Exposure shooting lets you create artistic effects in-camera. Six Art Filters instantly give your images a variety of creative looks. Features like Face Detection, Shadow Adjustment Technology and In-body Image Stabilization ensure clear, crisp images in any shooting situation. It all adds up to a DSLR for photographers who want to express themselves more artistically. The E-30 conveniently helps you transform a basic image that faithfully represents the scene into an image that carries emotional impact. The new Art Filters take this expressive ability to a higher level, replicating six dramatic effects as you shoot using the Autofocus Live View LCD. Pop Art: Enhances colors, making them more saturated and vivid, creating high-impact pictures that express the joyful, lighthearted feeling of the Pop Art style of the 1960s. Soft Focus: Creates an ethereal atmosphere that renders subjects in a heavenly light without obscuring details. Pale & Light Color: Encloses the foreground of an image in flat gentle light and pastel colors reminiscent of a flashback scene in a movie. Light Tone: Renders shade and highlight areas softly to lend an elegant air to the subject. Grainy Film: Evokes the feeling of documentary footage shot in monochrome with grainy, high-contrast film. Pin Hole Camera: Reduces the peripheral brightness of an image as though it were shot through a pin hole, connecting the viewer intimately with the subject at the center of the picture. Two innovative technologies merge to create a unique digital experience. The advanced Live View Autofocus works as seamlessly as a point-and-shoot to display subjects, in focus, on the LCD the instant the shutter is pressed half way. And the Swivel Live View LCD enables photographers to hold the camera away from their face and at angles they cannot easily reach by using the optical viewfinder alone. During composition, settings like white balance and exposure can be selected and their impact is seen instantly on the LCD, thanks to Live View. Real-time monitoring offers amazing versatility and creative control. Shoot up to four images in one frame in both the Live View and optical viewing modes. More evidence that Olympus is the undisputed leader in Live View technology, the E-30's Live View Autofocus now has a Multiple Exposure feature. Now you can take your best shot and combine it with another great shot right on the camera's LCD. Multiple Exposure overlays an image with multiple frames and saves it on a single image. For example, shoot a silhouette of a child against a sunset sky, then overlay a shot of a portrait of the child to create a lasting memory. |
Features
 | On-screen Autofocus with Live View works as seamlessly as a point-and-shoot to display subjects, in focus, on the LCD the instant the shutter is pressed half way |
| The new Art Filters allow you to replicate dramatic effects as you shoot using the Autofocus Live View LCD |
| Tracks up to 8 faces and automatically focuses and optimizes exposures for sharp, brilliant portrait pictures |
| Shadow Adjustment Technology brings out more details in shadows. It captures scenes exactly as you see them, even in challenging situations - like when shooting a backlit subject |
| The 2.7-inch dual-axis, high-definition, Live View monitor swivels 270° so you can capture dramatic images, even at difficult-to-shoot angles |
| Express yourself by altering how you frame the world - choose from nine aspect ratios, from the standard 4:3 to the cinematic 16:9 |
| The powerful 12.3-megapixel Live-MOS sensor means you'll capture more detail than ever before in your pictures |
| When it comes to measuring camera speed, autofocus is a key factor. Thanks to the new 14-54mm II lens with high-speed Imager AF, shooting with Live View is faster than ever - a key element in utilizing the new camera's art filters |
| In-Body Image Stabilization is a state-of-the-art technology, preventing camera shake for blur free photography |
| Every time you turn on the E-520, the Supersonic Wave Filter - located between the shutter and the image sensor - silently vibrates an amazing 30,000 times per second |
| Settings like Manual, Program, Aperture and Shutter Speed Priority allow for full manual control of the camera for advanced creative shooting |
| With the E-30's various camera controls, depending on the shooting situation, Program Camera Control automatically adjusts settings - such as the optimum aperture value and shutter speed |
| The remote release allows the user to take pictures over long exposures without shaking the camera |
| With the E-30, there are five Metering Modes: Digital ESP metering, Center weighted averaging metering and three types of spot metering |
| The E-30 is equipped with an internal Digital Level Sensor that detects the camera's pitch and roll and indicates it in the optical viewfinder on the control panel and during Live View operation |
| In-Body AF Focus Adjustment lets you use the AF Sensor (when set to Hybrid AF or AF Sensor) to fine-adjust the focusing position to a range of +/- 20 steps |
| The E-30 is compatible with the Olympus FL-50R and FL-36R wireless electronic flashes that are designed exclusively for digital photography |
| Accepting Compact Flash Type I & II, UDMA, Microdrives and xD-Picture Cards, the E-30 provides a choice of data storage options for enhanced flexibility and it is possible to transfer image files from one card to the other right inside the camera |
