Description:
The incredibly compact and lightweight D-SLR with Live
Preview capability
Life is in the details, and the EVOLT E-410 was built to
let you capture all of them. The Live View LCD is an uncommonly cool feature for
a digital SLR. And when you experience the ergonomic feel and lightweight
portability of this camera, youll want to take it everywhere. Whether the
important details of your life are smiling faces or far-away places, youll
capture pristine, detailed memories, thanks to a proven Dust Reduction System
and powerful 10-megapixel imager.
Innovative 2.5-inch Live View HyperCrystal LCD
The E-410 offers ease-of-shooting and greater flexibility with the Live View
LCD. Composing photographs is easier as subjects can be seen on the Live View
LCD, which offers a wide 176-degree viewing angle. This enables images to be
effortlessly taken from angles that would typically be difficult with a
traditional optical viewfinder -- which is still the only option on many
competing digital SLR cameras. Interacting with subjects, such as toddlers and
pets, is also possible thanks to the Live View LCD, which enables pictures to be
taken while holding the camera away from your face.
The E-410s big and bright 2.5-inch LCD display with approximately 230,000
pixels includes HyperCrystal technology, which offers many times the contrast of
conventional LCD monitors, and enables images to be beautifully displayed in
vivid color -- both in preview and playback. The HyperCrystal LCD also provides
a wide viewing angle, which ensures images can be composed from even the most
obscure angles. The larger LCD makes viewing icons and text on the cameras menu
a squint-free process.
Coupled with the underwater housing, the Live View LCD also makes underwater
photography easy, where looking through a traditional optical viewfinder is
extremely inconvenient.
Detailed, bright, and colorful photos with 10-megapixel Live MOS image
sensor
The E-410 is loaded with an impressive 10 million pixels for high-resolution
photos. The 10-megapixel sensor gives users the flexibility to blow-up their
prints to the large sizes supported by many of todays printers, or crop the
image to print only a part of the image that is important to them. The
high-performance Live MOS image sensor in the E-410 delivers excellent dynamic
range for accurate color fidelity, and a new state-of-the-art amplifier circuit
to eradicate noise and capture fine image details in the highlight and shadow
areas.
Dust Reduction System for spot-free images
Olympus proven Dust Reduction System produces spot-free photos with the
exclusive Supersonic Wave Filter. The patented ultrasonic technology vibrates to
remove dust and other particles from the front of the image sensor and captures
it on a special adhesive membrane every time the camera is turned on. These
spot-free photos liberate users from hours spent retouching photographs at the
computer or sending their cameras back to the manufacturer to remove dust
trapped inside.
TruePic III for image clarity
Olympus enhanced TruePic III Image Processor produces crystal clear photos using
all the pixel information for each image to provide the best digital images
possible for every photo with accurate color, true-to-life flesh tones,
brilliant blue skies and precise tonal representation in between. TruePic III
also lowers image noise by one step to reduce noise in images shot at higher ISO
settings, enabling great results in low-light situations.
Underwater photography
An optional underwater case (PT-E-03), five lens ports and a flash housing
enable adventurous photographers to capture the delights of the aquatic world
down to depths of approximately 131 feet (40 meters). The EVOLT E-410s Live View
mode makes digital SLR photography a breeze for both the first-time or
experienced underwater photographer.
Easy-to-use, easy-to-handle light and ergonomic design
The EVOLT E-410 is extremely portable, measuring 5.1 inches (129.5mm) by 3.58
inches (91mm) and 2.1 inches (53mm), excluding protrusions, and weighing 13.4
ounces (380 grams) body only. The new camera has a classic penta-mirror design
that is light and compact enough to comfortably shoot with all day. Beyond its
portable size, the E-410 delivers unparalleled ease of use -- from menus that
make sense and buttons on the body that are easy to understand and operate, to
automatic settings for every imaginable situation.
While the E-410 includes a full range of manual control options to customize
your creativity, it also has 30 shooting modes designed to provide the ideal
settings for a variety of shooting situations automatically. These include
Digital Image Stabilization, Night Scene, Fireworks, Beach and Snow, Underwater,
and Candle Light to name a few, as well as an xD Panorama mode (for use with
Olympus xD-Picture Cards). Users also benefit from special color modes and the
possibility to apply a variety of Black & White filters.
A new high-power rechargeable battery is included with the E-410 so that
users can keep shooting for extended periods. Accepting both CompactFlash Type I
& II, Microdrives, and xD-Picture Cards, the camera provides a choice of data
storage options for enhanced flexibility, and it is possible to transfer image
files from one card to the other right inside the camera.
