What Olympus Says About The E-PL1:

The Olympus PEN E-PL1 combines high-technology with maximum ease of use, providing the photographic novice with the ability to control key camera settings without having to take a photographic course to tediously understand how to use them.

Like all PEN cameras, the E-PL1 handles like a compact camera but provides the image quality of an SLR with its oversized 4/3 LiveMOS image sensor chip and TruePicV image processor. 

LIVEGUIDE TECHNOLOGY MAKES CAMERA CONTROL EASY

The new LiveGuide user interface revolutionises camera control for the total beginner and helps the camera novice understand the functions and use of important camera settings without having to learn traditional photo jargon.

DEDICATED HD MOVIE RECORD BUTTON

Never miss a movie opportunity! For easy transition between still shooting and HD movie recording, the E-PL1 is the first PEN camera to feature a dedicated movie record button that instantly activates movie capture when the camera is in a still shooting mode. Another press instantly stops recording and switches the camera back to still shooting.

POP UP FLASH

For picture moments that require flash use, the convenient built-in flash is easily activated with a flick of a button. 

CREATIVE EFFECT ART FILTERS

Many photographers add digital effects to captured pictures using photo editing software on their computers to add creative drama and impact. The E-PL1 does it all for you in the camera at the moment of capture, easily and conveniently. Six Art Filter effects of Pop Art, Soft Focus, Grainy Film, Pin Hole, Diorama, Gentle Sepia adds creative flair to your images by simulating popular traditional film and filter effects.

SENSATIONAL TRUEPIC V IMAGE PROCESSOR

At the heart of the E-PL1 is Olympus' famous TruePic V image processsor that reproduces images with amazing clarity with true-to-life colours. TruePic V is a true revolution in digital camera processor technology with its ability to reproduce subtle tonalities and clear detail with low noise even at high ISOs.

IMAGE STABILISATION THAT WORKS WITH ANY LENS

Image-stabilisation is one of the most desired features in cameras today because it gives you the freedom to shoot handheld in many low light situations with shake-free results. The PEN E-PL1's stabiliser is effective up to 3 shutter speeds.

Dedicated M.Zuiko lenses, other Micro-Four Thirds as well as Four-Thirds type lenses communicate with the camera body directly for the optimum image-stabilised results.

The E-PL1's built-in Image Stabiliser works with almost any non-dedicated lens that you can imagine, with its manually-set focal length feature that includes pre-sets for the entire legacy OM lens system. This means that you can stick any classic 50mm standard lens onto with the right lens adapter for instance, and it too can benefit from the camera's built-in stabilisation. Amazing!

ACCESSORY PORT FOR EXPANSION OPTIONS

The accessory port situated at the base of the flash hotshoe allows the use of a variety of special accessories including the amazing VF-2 electronic viewfinder and the EMA-1 microphone adapter for stereo sound in HD movie recording.
