hamburg, 30 june 2011 – when olympus launched its pen micro four thirds system cameras, it created a whole new camera category. now it has launched a visionary new pen flagship that defies categorisation altogether. the pen e - p3, or simply ‘pen’, has the fastest auto - focus of any camera with interchangeable lenses .
the pen e - p3 14 - 42 kits is available with the body in classic black, white or silver from august 2011, for £799 .
kudos to olympus for keeping battery continuity in the line. the original models used the bls - 1, and that can be used in the e - p3. more recent pen models have used the bls - 5, and that' s what comes with the e - p3 .
availability the olympus pen e - p3 kit will be available in stylish black, white and silver, starting in august 2011. it includes the pen e - p3 body, lens, usb cable, video cable, bls - 1 li - ion battery pack, li - ion battery charger, shoulder strap, olympus [ ib ] software cd - rom, manuals and registration card .
olympus imaging corporation (president: shuichi takayama) is pleased to announce the introduction of the
olympus pen e - p3
, the flagship of the pen series of new generation system cameras conforming to the micro four thirds system standard, scheduled for release on 22nd july, 2011 .
with its recent announcement of the pen e - p3, e - pl3 (l standing for lite) and the e - pm1 (m for mini), however, olympus has attempted to deal with this identity crisis as well as make a few other improvements .
the latest olympus pen models are claimed to have the fastest af of any interchangeable - lens camera. we find out how the new e - p3 handles and if it lives up to this bold statement
when i set out with the olympus e - p3 and e - pl3, i expected to prefer the latter camera for its smaller size and more modern appearance. but as i wandered around, i found i preferred some of the extra features that are only present in the e - p3 .
look what you can do with the new olympus pen e - p3. it blends high - quality still images expected of a digital single lens reflex (dslr) camera with high - definition (hd) video, ac3 dolby digital audio (comparable to studio recordings) and in - camera creativity in an ultra - portable body. the pen e - p3 has it all .
the olympus e - p3 will be thrusting into stores from august, with the camera body and 14 - 42mm kit zoom package selling for £799 .
rear, olympus e - p1 (with protective shipping film). enlarge .
in a first for the olympus pen system, the p3 has a touchscreen. this is a 3in 610, 000dot oled device and unlike other cameras that have a resistive screen, the p3' s is capacitive like the screen on an iphone .
the olympus pen micro four thirds family features eight fully - compatible micro four thirds lenses. the legendary olympus zuiko digital four thirds range of 27 high - quality lenses, om - series and other manufacturers' lenses can be attached to olympus pen cameras with optional adapters. the olympus pen e - p3 comes packaged with the movie and still compatible (msc) ed m14 - 42mm ii r f3. 5 / 5. 6 zoom lens (28mm - 84mm equivalent )

“ with a classic, compact, all - metal body reminiscent of the olympus pen e - p1, the pen e - p3 offers an unprecedented level of portability to help you capture great images and videos on the go, ” said katie roseman, senior product manager, olympus imaging america inc. “this camera has the creative flexibility to give you a true professional experience. ”

being a micro four thirds model, the p3 can accept lenses with the micro four thirds mount from olympus and panasonic .
shooting with the e - p3 more over the weekend, i got to know it better. i snapped the 14 - 150mm f / 4 - 5. 6 lens on, attached the strap, and went out with relatives for the weekend. through a variety of activities, the olympus e - p3 proved its mettle, and i learned a few more things about the e - p3 along the way .
the olympus e - p3' s noise suppression handles the background well, but not quite as well as the g3. color also fades, particularly yellow in these shots. the e - p3 still handles the red leaf swatch and the pink swatch beneath a little better than the g3 .
like the pen lite and mini cameras, the olympus p3 has a four thirds type 17. 3 x 13. 0mm live mos (cmos) sensor with 12. 3 million effective pixels .
for the same price as the olympus pen e - p3, you can get a canon rebel t3i / eos 600d dslr. and if you want a viewfinder on your olympus, that' s an additional $ 249. 99. the ep - 3 is just crazy - overpriced .
a couple of years have passed since we reviewed the very first olympus pen camera, the e - p1. it seems longer, because so much has changed in this space. the pen e - p1 was the first of the small micro four thirds cameras, at the time the smallest, but since its debut a war has broken out for the title of the smallest compact system camera. while the smaller olympus pen lite and pen mini have entered the fray in the
small
arena, olympus saw fit to also update and revamp the original pen with more functionality .
remarkable that i just bought into the system six years later! olympus e - p5 .
instant af with its compact design, user - friendly features and first class picture quality, olympus’ award - winning pen system camera range is already a firm favourite with both ambitious amateur photographers and professionals looking for a practical second camera. led by the e - p3, the new pen generation significantly enhances that reputation .

maintaining the sophisticated pen design, the e - p3 takes performance to another level. the world' s fastest af system, fast (frequency acceleration sensor technology) af * 1, a new sensor, and new image processor that realizes the highest pen image quality, and an intuitive touch panel all make the 3rd generation pen an outstanding camera .
so the e - p3 certainly looks to be the most complete and most impressive pen model to date, but with the competition having also progressed rapidly over the past year, expectations are higher than ever .
center valley, pa. , june 30, 2011 – today olympus announces a new flagship pen camera designed for the hobbyist or advanced photographer who desires superior image quality, fast (frequency acceleration sensor technology) autofocus tracking system and total creative control in a body portable enough to travel the world: the pen e - p3 .

launched in march 2010 with the introduction of the olympus pen lite e - pl1, olympus' s
pen lite
models were originally designed to expand the digital slr market by focusing on entry - level users. now, however, that role has been taken over by the new line of
pen mini
models, allowing olympus to reboot the

product concept, emphasizing the spirit of innovation and concentrating on putting big - size functionality and performance into a small - size body .
with today' s introduction of the om - d e - m10 iii, we thought it would be nice to jump back in time to 2009, when olympus announced the pen e - pl1, its first mirrorless camera .
just posted: although it retains its predecessor' s styling, the olympus pen e - p3 shares very little else with its forebears. there' s still a 12mp four thirds - sized sensor at its heart, but its autofocus, rear screen and movie capabilities have all been radically overhauled. crucially, olympus has also managed to squeeze a flash into the body. now sitting at the top of a three - model range, the e - p3 is clearly positioned as a camera for enthusiasts. so, do its third - generation refinements and promises of world - beating af performance make the e - p3 into the camera that the pen series always promised to be ?

models, the olympus pen lite e - pl3 is an interchangeable lens type digital camera that conforms to the micro four thirds system standard. combining the attributes of high performance and compact ease of use, the pen lite is designed to serve as the centerpiece of the pen series of new generation system cameras. its target is the young families who have special tastes for what they possess .

the olympus pen e - p3 uses a variety of features to achieve speed rivaling that of the professional olympus e - 5 dslr. focus and shoot faster with the camera' s 12. 3mp live mos image sensor, truepic vi image processor and fast af tracking system. the olympus pen e - p3 offers 35 separate focus points spread over nearly the entire sensor, enabling the camera to pin - point focus accuracy on small subjects wherever they appear in the frame. selectable 3x3 groups within the 35 - point area are especially effective when shooting active subjects. the camera' s fast shutter response time ensures that you will never miss the shot, even in the toughest shooting environments
the olympus pen e - p3 looks a lot like its forebears - not just the e - p1 and e - p2 but, just as significantly, the company' s film era pen f camera. significantly because, in an age in which the major electronics giants are building their photographic presence, olympus is one of only a handful of companies with genuine heritage to turn to. and, despite modern cameras making high image quality more accessible than ever, there is an undeniable reverence for the look and feel of 1960s cameras .
for experienced users, the pen has more special treats in store – two dials on the back for making quick adjustments to exposure and aperture, plus in - body image stabilisation that counteracts camera shake irrespective of the attached lens. the pen e - p3 14 - 42 lens kit is available from august 2011 for £799 .
although its price ranks as one of the highest in its class, the olympus pen e - p3 offers a number of improvements over its predecessors, most notably performance. in fact, other than a rather paltry 3 frames - per - second burst speed, it’s one of the fastest—if not the fastest—mirrorless cameras on the market to date. improved performance alone may provide enough motivation for pen users to upgrade and certainly gives the e - p3 an edge over the competition, particularly in combination with its well thought out feature set .
a range of interchangeable lenses, accessories and strobes that are compatible with the e - p3 and are available to support all different types of photography needs .
instant compatibility like every other pen, the pen e - p3 is a system camera. the moment users purchase it, they gain instant access to more than 500 micro four thirds, four thirds and other lenses (via a adapter), including olympus’ legendary m. zuiko digital range of high - quality optics. highlights of the range are two new fast - aperture lenses .

the e - p3' s similarity of appearance to its predecessors could, all too easily, suggest that olympus has again been subtle with its changes. but this isn' t the case at all, and the new model brings with it a whole raft of updates and refinements. olympus has addressed many of the key criticisms of the older models, to the extent that we' d be tempted to say that the e - p3 is finally the camera that the pen has always promised to be .

olympus has been supporting the creativity of photographers by incorporating easy - to - use art filters in its lens interchangeable type digital cameras. the new e - p3 incorporates all ten art filters, as well as all the art filter variations and art effects developed by olympus .
olympus has launched the e - p3, its fifth generation micro four thirds camera. the p3 features a familiar - looking pen body and revised 12mp sensor but almost every other aspect of the camera has changed. the latest flagship pen features what the company claims to be the world' s fastest af - s performance, as well as a 614, 000 dot vga - equivalent oled touch - sensitive screen and built - in flash. in addition it can shoot 1080i60 hd movies in the avchd format. we' ve been using the e - p3 for a while now and have prepared a full preview with studio and real - world sample images .
although it doesn' t have a viewfinder built - in, the p3 has an accessory port (see below) to accept olympus' s optional external electronic viewfinder (evf). the viewfinder slots into the p3' s hotshoe, which means it can' t be used with an external flashgun, but the p3 also has a flash unit built - in .
the olympus e - p3 is the third - generation flagship camera in the olympus pen line of micro four thirds format mirrorless, interchangeable lens cameras. it has a 12 - megapixel live mos sensor, seriously improved auto focus, full hd video, a beautiful oled (organic light emitting diode) touchscreen display, a solid metal body and pro - level exposure controls .
optics. like all pen - series cameras, the olympus e - p3 features a micro four thirds lens mount capable of accepting quite a selection of dedicated lenses from olympus, panasonic, and voigtländer. courtesy of several adapters, it can also accept older glass including om - series lenses, leica' s m and r - mount lenses, and lenses made for olympus and panasonic' s full - sized four thirds cameras .
cs - 30b leather body jacket the cs - 30b is a genuine leather body jacket designed exclusively for the olympus pen e - p3. it protects the sensitive parts of the camera body without detracting from its design. in addition to the practical aspect of camera body protection, the body jacket' s genuine leather and rugged construction exude a sense of both traditional craftsmanship and contemporary styling. the ideal complement for the olympus pen e - p3, this jacket makes the camera even more fun to carry. naturally, shooting and playback is possible while viewing the rear - panel lcd without taking the camera out of the body jacket .

the level gauge in the olympus pen e - p3 is a tremendous benefit for architectural photographers who must ensure that images of buildings are as centered and true as the walls of the buildings themselves. this feature detects the camera’s pitch and roll during live view operation so photographers can make sure subjects appear where they should in the frame .

olympus claims that the truepic vi processing engine in the new pen cameras is faster than panasonic' s venus engine vi fhd device, so it can get more speed out of the af system. consequently, olympus believes that the p3 has the world' s fastest af when used with its msc (movie stills compatible) optics .
the e - p3 came out in 2011 as the premier, top of the line olympus mft camera. it has a much improved auto focus, movie capability, and this camera cost twice as much as a pl1 and pl2 and it shows up in the excellent build quality and extra features. the e - p3 takes the same batteries and uses all the same data cords as earlier oly mft cameras. there' s a built in flash, a large touch oled screen, and lots more features than older cameras. the e - p3 is a bargain because it used the 12mp sensor, now replaced by 16 and 20 megapixel sensors in the latest cameras. but the 12mp sensor made some beautiful photographs, especially jpeg photos, and this model was the top of the line for the 12mp sensor. the e - p3 is a joy to use, with fully automatic settings and the capability to shoot raw and set all the camera functions manually. it' s a worthwhile upgrade from any older oly mft camera. i loved the e - pl1 and love the flagship 12mp sensor e - p3 even more. olympus still supports the e - p3, and it' s as usuable today as it was six years ago .
up against the 14 - megapixel nx100, the olympus e - p3 does pretty well, with noticeably better noise suppression in the shadows, though the nx100 does a little better with the mosaic label in some areas. the red leaf swatch looks bad from either camera, though the samsung gets the color closer to correct; but the e - p3 gets the pink swatch below it a little closer to reality .
the level gauge in the olympus pen e - p3 is a tremendous benefit for architectural photographers who must ensure that images of buildings are as centered and true as the walls of the buildings themselves. this feature detects the camera' s pitch and roll during live view operation so photographers can make sure subjects appear where they should in the frame
the e - p3 is the only pen with a built - in flash so its accessory port is more readily available for add - ons such as an electronic viewfinder, bluetooth pen pal for wirelessly transmitting images to your smartphone (android, blackberry, but not iphone) or to another pen pal equipped camera. additional options include an external microphone and a very cool and useful macro arm light. compatible with micro four thirds lenses from olympus, panasonic, and third party manufacturers, standard four thirds lenses can also be accommodated with an adapter .
for the first time in any pen model the display is a touchscreen, allowing touch focus, touch shutter and some adjustment control directly on the screen. another first for the e - p3 is a built - in flash. while olympus e - pl models had this, previous e - p cameras featured a hotshoe addition only. the new range also sees the selection of art filters expanded to include secondary options and the ability to maintain exposure control with some settings .
after its great success over the past several years in refurbishing its pen line, olympus is continuing its quest for innovation by updating other legendary cameras of the past .

the e - p3 doesn' t innovate enough from an image quality standpoint to justify an upgrade, and for newcomers, that $ 900 price point is awfully hard to swallow .
connectivity. the olympus e - p3 includes usb 2. 0 high speed data connectivity, type - c mini hdmi high definition video output, and ntsc / pal switchable composite standard definition video output with monaural audio. it' s also compatible with olympus' optional rm - uc1 usb remote control unit, which plugs into the combined usb / av port. as mentioned previously, the e - pl3 allows for bluetooth data transfer with the optional olympus penpal accessory. like other pen models, no dc - input port is provided .
technology and design in perfect harmony combining modern technology with the timeless style of the classic olympus pen series, the removal of the mirror box allows the olympus pen e - p1 to be reduced to a remarkably compact size. such mirror - less construction is also the foundation for a stunning new design. a stylish metal finish and the optional fl - 14 flash give the camera a retro - look reminiscent of the classic olympus pen f. through its compactness and usability this legendary camera became one of the most popular and revolutionary products in the history of photography .
easily pen your story with a brand new pen this third generation of the olympus pen series combines powerful features in an easy - to - use package that will make capturing your life more fun. the new direct record button makes taking videos easier than ever and the new live guide functionality makes it simple to learn photography techniques without requiring the skills of a pro shooter .
building on brilliance the new generation of pen (e - p2) boasts an enviable pedigree. it comes hot on the heels of olympus’ award - winning first micro four thirds system camera inspired by the revolutionary maitani design of the original pen series. this second digital model takes usability and functionality even further by with diverse fresh features :
the fast af system that made the olympus pen e - p3 the world' s fastest autofocusing camera has been further refined, setting a new benchmark for the industry once again. olympus has also solved the problem of moving object tracking capability with a newly developed 3d tracking af system. now, quick and accurate focusing is possible with any subject, whether it' s standing still or burning down the track .
with the launch of the e - m5, olympus harks back to one of its most fondly - remembered camera systems - the olympus om range of 35mm slrs. the e - m5 is the first camera in an om - digital lineup that will run alongside the pen series and, according to the company, its four thirds models. read more from urltoken

in looks the olympus pen e - p3 isn’t a huge departure from the original e - p1, but in terms of features it is a huge step forward, even from the e - p2 model that was launched just over 18 months ago. although the sensor resolution remains unchanged, the e - p3’s new processor allows for faster operation and focusing. the focusing has been improved to such an extent that olympus claims it is the fastest of any interchangeable - lens camera. this claim is based on its full - time af system, which is designed to adjust the focus constantly rather than waiting for you to half - press the shutter – so even if it is as fast as they claim, it is not based on the standing start you might expect .
pen the pen series was first introduced in 1959 as a half - frame camera. with its revolutionary design and price, this camera made photography available for a much bigger user group. the idea behind its design was pure and elegant – to create a camera that was as easy to carry and use as a pen. the pen was designed by legendary olympus designer yoshihisa maitani, one of the most famous product designers in the history of photography. in 1963 the pen f was launched as the world’s first 35mm half - frame system slr. by the time it was introduced, 16 lenses were available. 17 million pen cameras were sold, making it one of the most popular and successful cameras ever. today pen cameras are a much sought after collector’s item and are traded for incredible prices on the second - hand market .

storage and battery. the olympus e - p3 stores images and movies on secure digital cards, and is compatible not only with the higher - capacity sdhc and sdxc card types, but also with higher - speed uhs - i cards - - still a relatively rare capability as of this writing (june 2011). the e - p3 also supports wi - fi enabled eye - fi secure digital cards, for wireless transfer direct from the camera body .
as well as improving autofocus speed, olympus has also increased the total number of focus points in its system, which still has fixed point locations, even though it uses contrast detection. where earlier pen - series cameras offered 11 - point autofocus, the olympus e - p3 now offers up 35 point focusing, with the points are arranged in a 7 x 5 array that covers most of the image frame, with the exception of the extreme edges. the e - p3 also provides the ability to configure the camera to address 3x3 groups of focus points instead of individual points if preferred. olympus further notes that it has improved autofocus tracking performance, and can now use color information and account for the locations of faces in tracking a moving subject. one final difference of note with respect to autofocusing is that the olympus e - p3 now includes a small, built - in autofocus assist lamp, positioned roughly where the self - timer lamp was in earlier cameras .

introduced this past summer, the pen e - pl3 and pen e - pm1 are the latest micro - four - thirds cameras from olympus. these 2 new models are intended to complete the pen ep3 series and thus offer a whole range of compact cameras with interchangeable lenses. each model offers a different set of controls with a different size, depending on whether you need more directly - accessible controls while shooting, or if you favor a pocketable camera. but as we' ll see, given that they' re based on the same sensor as the pen ep3, these cameras perform equally well (or poorly) in term of image quality .

evoking the classic design of the original om series introduced 40 years ago, and transforming it for the modern age, the olympus om - d series is a new and entirely unique micro four thirds camera system. it combines outstanding features found in the olympus e - system dslr line with those of the compact olympus pen® series to meet the requirements of discerning photographers who demand more performance and portability from their interchangeable - lens cameras. the compact and ready - for - action olympus e - m5 boasts breakthrough innovations inside, including :

the e - p2 represents almost as subtle an enhancement as the company' s e - 450 does, compared to the remarkably similar e - 420. the two models will sell alongside each other, with all e - p2 kits including the plug - in viewfinder. the launch of the e - p2 so soon after e - p1 might prompt the more cynically inclined to wonder whether this is the product olympus originally planned to create - though its similarity should mean early adopters of the e - p1 don' t feel stung for having excercised their credit cards so readily .
with previous pen series models, the body size was reduced by eliminating the quick - return mirror while maintaining key slr advantages such as high performance and high image quality. olympus has made the e - pl3 even smaller by redesigning all of the internal structures .

olympus has been on the fast track with its pen mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras since june 2009, when the e - p1 was introduced. now in its third generation, the 12 megapixel e - p3 easily slides into the flagship position of the olympus micro four thirds line, which includes the e - pl3 and the e - pm1. there were only subtle differences between the first two models—the e - p1 and the e - p2—but the e - p3 ($ 900 with 14 - 42mm lens) marks a more pronounced step forward. some improvements, like a new live mos sensor are under the hood while others, like the 3 - inch oled semi - touch screen are more visible. additional updates include speedier performance, full hd video, built - in flash, and a maximum native iso of 12, 800. these are all welcome improvements that make this camera even more appealing to dslr shooters who want a small but capable second camera and consumers who want better image quality and flexibility without the bulk of a dslr .
