Manhandling the Olympus E-3
John Chan | Oct 18, 2007
As the old cliche goes, a picture tells a thousand words. So, more than just read about the Olympus E-3 in our hands-on, you should check out some of the photos snagged at its launch event in Tokyo.
First up is of course the opener, the President of Olympus flanked by a pair of young ladies. We somehow still find it strange to see models holding cameras because they get behind the lens, pretending to be photographers for the sake of getting photographed.
Don't try this at home. The E-3 disassembled to show the inner workings.
With a swiveling LCD, this dSLR will be able to rise above crowds and still let the photographer frame a shot using the "live view" feature.
It'll let you take a self-portrait, too.
