Olympus Launches the E-400 Digital SLR
By: Gagan Gupta   |   Sep 15, 2006

Olympus has announced the world's smallest and lightest D-SLR camera – the E-400. The compact size and low weight of this latest Four Thirds Standard camera in the Olympus E-System grant photographers the freedom to take it along nearly anywhere, while not having to do without the considerable benefits of SLR photography. This model features a newly-developed CCD with 10.0 million pixels for incredible imaging performance and a large 2.5”/6.4cm LCD to view results in comfort.

As the E-400 is compatible with the Four Thirds Standard, users have virtually unlimited flexibility. A wide range of high-quality, interchangeable lenses – including the EISA Award winning ZUIKO DIGITAL Top Pro lens line-up by Olympus – plus other accessories are available for all types of needs. These are provided by Olympus and, thanks to cross-manufacturer compatibility of the standard, also from other producers. And as with all E-System cameras, the E-400 features the Supersonic Wave Filter — ensuring dust-free photography, even when changing lenses under challenging conditions.

Within its compact dimensions is a 10.0 million pixel CCD providing plenty of imaging power to draw out even the finest of details in any composition. Moreover, the highly energy-efficient image sensor features a state-of-the-art amplifier circuit to all but eradicate noise and is incredibly fast. It enables sequential shooting at up to 3fps with a five image RAW buffer in burst mode.

Like every Olympus E-System camera, the E-400 also incorporates the Supersonic Wave Filter. This patented technology ensures worry-free lens changing – even in challenging environments. Developed by Olympus, the Supersonic Wave Filter generates ultra-high-speed vibrations that shake off dust and other particles from the image sensor, which are then captured on a special adhesive membrane.

The E-400 balances manual control options that give creativity no bounds with a wide range of semi and fully-automatic choices for ease of use. A total of 31 shooting modes are on board that cover a great variety of shooting situations. These include Underwater, Macro, High Key and Low Key. Users moreover benefit from special color modes and the possibility to apply a variety of Black&White filters.

The E-400 will be available from October 2006, in Europe.
