Olympus EVOLT E-410 - Manual (Page 8)

Only Olympus digital SLRs are engineered to be 100% digital.
Simply put, this makes innovative technologies like Dust Reduction
and Live View possible. It also helps to produce pictures with
stunning edge-to-edge sharpness that can’t be achieved with
other digital SLR cameras. A powerful 10-megapixel Live-MOS
sensor gives you more detail in your pictures than ever before.
Another reason for the astonishingly clear images is our award-
winning family of more than 20 Zuiko™ Digital lenses — the
most in the industry. Unlike older film lenses, these advanced,
precision-engineered 100% digital lenses are designed to work
perfectly with the camera’s digital technology. The result? Your
photos will have exceptional color and clarity. All Zuiko lenses are
compatible with all Olympus digital SLR cameras.
From the innovator in Live View
LCD technology.
You might not have time to capture a photo using the traditional
viewfinder. Or you may want to shoot high or low. Maybe you
want to capture your subject quickly and spontaneously. You may
just want to carefully compose your picture. That’s why we
developed Live View technology. It’s one advantage of being 100%
digital that you won’t find on other digital SLR cameras.
– View 100% of your image. What you see is how your photo
will look.
– Preview and review photos on a high-resolution, 2.5-inch
HyperCrystal™ LCD screen.
– See the screen with amazing clarity from any angle up to
176 degrees.
– Check the sharpness of a shot before snapping it with 7x or
10x magnification.
The camera that dusts its own insides.
Keep dust spots off your photos. The Olympus dust-reduction
system is an industry first and a proven technology. Every time you
turn on the E-410, our Supersonic Wave Filter™ — located
between the shutter and the image sensor — silently vibrates an
amazing 35,000 times per second. Dust is shaken away. You can
take full advantage of all the benefits of an SLR camera and
change lenses anywhere without worrying about dust ruining
your photos.
Better photos through technology.
Advanced imaging technology is at the heart
of the EVOLT E-410. The new TruePic III™
processor gives you brilliantly clear, bright
photos with accurate skin tones. The E-410’s
technology also gives you:
– Quick camera start-up. It’s ready when you are.
– Speedy shot-to-shot response. No shutter lag.
A continuous drive of 3fps.

high-speed USB 2.0.
