Technical information sheet of E-3

Olympus proudly presents the new flagship of its digital reflex camera range: the E-3! Built with a highly resistant magnesium-alloy case, this camera produces detail-filled, beautiful images captured by its 11.8 megapixel Live MOS sensor and image stabilising system. Like most Olympus cameras, the E-3 comes with the efficient Supersonic Wave Filter that prevents dust from collecting on the sensor. It also boasts one of the most impressive autofocus systems for quick and precise capture of images, even with different lenses, and its performances are heightened even further by the dual Compact Flash and xD memory card reader. The E-3 also has a Live View mode that enables you to monitor your photos on the camera?s 2.5? screen while taking them, and you?ll also be able to take perfect snaps in poor lighting conditions thanks to its high ISO sensitivity. The E-3 provides the highest levels of speed and image quality no matter what the conditions, and with so many features on offer, professional photographers will really come to appreciate this model?s reliability. It's not surprising that this camera won the EISA (European Imaging and Sound Association) prize in the digital SLR camera category.  Please note this product is supplied without a lens.
