Olympus OM-D E-M5 Mirrorless Digital Camera, Black
<b> Olympus E-M5 Mirrorless Digital Camera </b> For photographers with memories that stretch back to the film era, the new Olympus OMD-EM5 bears a striking resemblance to the classic film OM series, a long-lived line of SLRs that broke new ground in compact and light camera design. Desipite its remarkable resemblance to classic Olympus SLRs such as the OM-1, the OMD-EM5 is not an SLR. It is a mirrorless camera with a high-resolution (1.44 million dot) electronic viewfinder and a plethora of new technology and features. The OM-D is a groundbreaking, new digital interchangeable lens camera perfect for people who want to "take part", "create", and "share". <b> ELECTRONIC VIEWFINDER </b> The OM-D's new electronic viewfinder (EVF) features a high-resolution 1.44-million dot LCD, 100% field-of-view coverage, and 1.15x maximum magnification that let you totally immerse yourself in your subject, and actively control image creation. The EVF also enables you to enlarge the focus point for precision focusing in virtually any shooting situation, and can show you the effect of Highlight & Shadow Control, White Balance, Exposure Compensation, Aspect Ratio, and a host of other settings and advanced digital image processing functions right in the viewfinder. With improved precision and responsiveness that make it as easy to use as an optical viewfinder, the OM-D's advanced EVF gives you virtually unlimited creative control. <b> HIGH IMAGE QUALITY</b> Three key factors contribute to the OM-D's unprecedented image quality: a wide lineup of M.ZUIKO DIGITAL lenses for sharp, clear subject capture, a new 16-megapixel Live MOS image sensor for rich tonal expression, and an advanced TruePic VI image processor for superb color fidelity. The optimal balance of these factors ensures the high resolution, sensitivity, and color accuracy you need tobrilliantly capture the world around you. <b> FAST AF</b> The world's fastest* AF system, FAST AF, has been made even faster and more accurate on the OM-D. Improved new 3D Tracking AF assures you won't miss the moment even when subjects move toward or away from you, and the new high-sensitivity image sensor ensures superior AF performance even in dim light. Set to continuous AF mode, the E-M5 will adjust its focus as the subject approaches or moves further away. Like other cameras with contrast-based AF systems this can prove a bigger challenge than those with phase-detect AF systems. A contrast-based system can't help but search back and forth a little when confirming focus, which means it may struggle to keep up with a subject in constant motion. In its favour, the E-M5 can certainly perform the confirmation process very quickly, and as a consequence can generally do a fair job at tracking. To put it to the test I photographed kids running towards and away from me using the Olympus 45mm f1.8 lens opened up to f1.8, where the E-M5 enjoyed a success rate of at least 70%. As such it's one of the better contrast-based cameras in...
