The hype is going to find out about Olympus’s most recent and exciting digital SLR camera. The Olympus EP-1 is a camera very alternate to most - if you are looking for something small, compact, reminiscent of the 1960’s style film camera with amazing specifications and abilities you are on the right track!

The Olympus EP-1 is based on the 35mm Pen camera, released in 1959. This Pen was produced to counter and challenge other companies to design a camera small enough to pocket with inter-changable lenses. Olympus has manufactured the EP-1 as a digital SLR, with all the capabilities of their standard DSLRs. The clever camera has a sleek appearance, combining contemporary with retro, giving photographers the wonderful option of a small, high quality and attractive digital camera.

In terms of performance, the EP-1 is top of the range. The Olympus E-P1 has a 12.3 megapixel sensor that is capable of capturing both still and HD video. Traditional features can still be found, including face detection, Art Filters, dust reduction, multiple exposures and magnified focus assist. Despite this, the Olympus EP-1 introduces brand new features, including HD video, digital leveling, 324-area matrix metering, onboard music and in-camera music integration to your video footage or still images.

When you receive your Olympus EP-1, two lenses are generally included in the kit.  The 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 and the 17mm f/2.8, as well as a small optical viewfinder matched to the 17mm lens. A small flash will also debut with the Olympus E-P1 upon release.
