The Olympus E-330
is the world's first* digital SLR camera to feature
continuous live previews directly on the LCD.
Enabling the framing of compositions without the
need to look through the viewfinder, it allows
digital SLR photographers to see what's going on
around them while they shoot, significantly
enhancing flexibility. Thanks to a big, 6.4cm
multi-angle LCD, users will only seldom need to get
into awkward positions to frame difficult shots
&endash; even if shooting from the ground. Ensuring
the Olympus E-330 delivers outstanding image
quality is a latest-generation MOS sensor that
produces incredibly detailed 7.5 megapixel results.
Meanwhile, this model naturally incorporates the
Olympus-exclusive SuperSonic Wave Filter for
dust-free photography, as all cameras in the
Olympus E-Series do. And to offer the optimal
equipment in any shooting situation, the camera is
compatible with the entire range of Olympus
E-System accessories.
The Olympus E-330
represents a breakthrough in digital SLR
photography. It gives users the freedom to see
their subjects live on the camera's tilting,
multi-angle LCD for the first time*. This means
that macro photographers needn't lie in the mud to
frame ground-level subjects any more, and portrait
photographers can keep constant eye contact with
their model or client. Moreover, underwater
photographers will finally have the freedom to see
what they shoot through their diving mask.
This innovation
is made all the better due to superior image
quality by using a highly advanced Live MOS sensor
with 7.5 million pixels.
As with all
Olympus E-System products, the Olympus E-330
incorporates the SuperSonic Wave Filter to protect
the image sensor from harmful contaminants that can
enter the camera during lens changes. Generating
ultra-high-speed vibrations, dust and other
particles that can affect image quality are shaken
off and then captured on a special adhesive
membrane. The function is invoked at each start-up
of the camera or can be manually executed at any
time.
Catering to
virtually all users' needs and preferences, this
model offers a full manual exposure mode,
semi-manual aperture or shutter priority options
plus the convenience of automatic shooting. In
addition, 20 scene modes and 7 creative modes will
have the ideal solution in store for nearly every
photographic situation. New features include an
anti blur option, nature macro and xD-Panorama mode
plus two underwater modes. A special Live View
Boost function also increases the brightness of the
view on the 2.5"/6.4cm HyperCrystal LCD for easy
framing, even in dim lighting.
Numerous
professional options ensure first-class image
capture. A 49 area AE sensor with sophisticated AE
algorithm, for example, provides accurate exposure
values for ESP metering. Black & white shooting
is available with the possibility to add colour
filters &endash; as used in analogue photography. A
one-touch white balance option, AF-lock
functionality and depth of field preview continue
the pro-level features of the Olympus E-330. To
evaluate exposure levels of individual
compositions, the camera offers a Histogram
function. And with both CompactFlash and xD-Picture
Card slots, this model gives photographers extra
flexibility for extended shooting and lets them
choose the type of storage medium they prefer.
Users also have the choice between saving their
data in JPEG, TIFF and RAW format.
Despite all these
functions, the camera is easy to handle. Thanks to
the TTL optical porro design, the lightweight,
ergonomic body is incredibly compact. To further
enhance shooting ease, users can choose the amount
of on-screen information they want to see: from
advanced information for experienced photographers
to just the general details for beginners.
The full
advantages of SLR photography are available to
Olympus E-330 owners due to compatibility with
virtually the entire E-System range of accessories.
In addition to the extensive line-up of lenses,
specialised accessories such as various flash units
are also available. And to allow the amazing
potential of this model to be used even off-shore,
Olympus offers the underwater case PT-E02
(waterproof up to 60m).
The Olympus E-330
sets a new standard in digital SLR photography with
the ability to deliver continuous live views
directly on the LCD. It convinces with
extraordinary image quality thanks to its 7.5
million pixel MOS sensor.
