Olympus OM-D E-M5: The First Micro Four Thirds Camera Aimed at Replacing a DSLR

The Olympus OM-D E-M5 is crammed full of impressive features: the fastest autofocus among interchangeable lens cameras (or so says Olympus). The E-M5 pushes a ridiculous 9 frames per second of 16-megapixel RAW photos

Olympus teases with leaked image of OM-D camera, saves the best for last?

Some would say that “one picture is worth a thousand words,” but all we’re visualizing here are a few camera-driven buttons and a small portion of Olympus branding. Though, 43 Rumors is claiming that this is indeed the soon-to-be new addition to the OM series, which is expected to get unveiled next month. Olympus is no rookie in the Micro Four Thirds game, so it shouldn’t come as a surprise for the rumored specs to be a decent upgrade in comparison to its PEN shooters .

Olympus PEN E-PL3 gets a price tag, release date

Last month, Olympus lifted the veil on a trio of 12.3-megapixel Micro Four Thirds cameras, replacing both models in its PEN line and adding the small and light E-PM1. We already knew to expect an August ship date for the $900 E-P3, but now the company filled us in on its tilt-enabled E-PL3, which will be available in black, white, red, and silver when it ships in September. Priced at $700, the kit will include either a 14-42mm zoom or 17mm fixed lens, and will retail for a full c-note higher than its predecessor, the E-PL2 .

Olympus E-PM1′s petite frame outed before launch

On the eve of its rumored launch , we’ve spotted what looks to be a leaked press shot of Olympus’ new teensy micro-four-thirds camera. According to the folks at 4/3 Rumors , the miniature shooter is pegged to debut (alongside the E-PL3 and E-P3 ) with a 12-megapixel sensor and TruePic VI engine. Not making the jump however, are its brother’s OLED screens, leaving the emancipated light-box to make do with just a regular LCD

Panasonic Lumix GF3: sample photos and video

We already gave you some hands-on impressions of Panasonic’s new Lumix GF3, but we just had a chance to shoot video and stills with the Micro Four Thirds cam at an event in NYC, leaving with a couple hundred photos and a small handful of video clips. There’s no question that this GF2 successor was designed with interchangeable lens camera (ILC) newbies in mind, with no dedicated mode dial, a touchscreen display, and a boatload of auto settings, along with the usual spattering of effects modes. Panasonic chose a mock wedding scene as the centerpiece of its demo today, complete with bride, groom, and celebrity cake designer (a rather enthusiastic Ron Ben-Israel)

How would you change Panasonic’s Lumix DFC-GF2?

We’re drowning in interchangeable lens options, but that’s far from being a bad thing.
