Olympus Pen, E-P2 up close and personal

I’ve finally played (quickly) with the new Pen camera from Olympus. The E-P2 delivered on it’s promised design – beautiful and discreet. Plus several new updates that will encourage more photography and creativity.

What’s new in the E-P2?

  1. Electronic view finder which is really good and the tilt make it great for “from hip” shots.
  2. Sleek and discreet look with it beautiful gun metal black colour.
  3. Two new “Art Filters” – Diorama and Cross Process
  4. New LCD
  5. Microphone adaptor
  6. i-enhance, colours are enhanced to be stronger
  7. AF Tracking, improved

There will also be a black leather case and straps as well as two more lenses 14-150mm f4.0-5.6 and 9-18mm f4.0-5.6 wide angle.

The new Pen camera will be available in January 2010. Hopefully by then, I will have a review about it with lots of photos.

Keep an eye on the tele for the new Olympus ads, out from the 16/11/2009.
