First touch . E5 . Olympus
Thanks to Olympus Malaysia for allowing me to test out this pre production unit. I have been told Olympus E-5 have excellent performance when come to anti-shake technology which is body integrated Image Stabilization. The new E-5 also latest image engine which is TRUEPIC V+ with fine detail process technology.
A quick check on specification of this machine shows that:
- Large viewfinder with professional-level coverage of 100% and 1.15x magnification for accurate image control
- Spotless photography with most effective dust reduction system (Supersonic Wave Filter)
- Splashproof body and lens system
- Professional quality shutter life of 150K operations
- High-performance built-in image stabiliser to stabilise all lenses (up to 5 EV steps) with two modes
- High Speed 12.3 Megapixel Live MOS sensor
- High image quality with a variety of bright dedicated-to-digital ZUIKO DIGITAL lenses
- TruePic V+ image processor
- High-resolution 3 inch 921000 dots Dual Axis Swivel Hyper Crystal LCD
- Dramatic Tone Art Filter and 9 additional Art Filters give endless imaging ideas
- Nine aspect ratios
- Built-in Wireless flash control with commander function
- Multi-exposure mode
For this first touch series, I will only test on few aspect on this machine and I will share my experience and feedbacks from the on the field test. I will not provide feature comparison with other brand, I will not test pixel details on how good or who have better pixel quality picture as well. I must admit that I have no experience handling olympus E system before, the last I tried during photo exhibition booth is E-1 series which is quite impress with toughness of this machine. E-5 offer almost same confident build to me too.
