Olympus E-P1
E-P1 - So Close, So Very Close PDF Print E-mail

The Olympus E-P1 has now been on the market long enough to satisfy the early demand. I was able to finally get my hands on one to see if it is a camera that will make it into my camera bag. Along with the hands-on came a surprise I'm not sure how to accept.

They say good things come in small packages. Well, Swiss watch manufacturers would agree. Then again every decent Japanese carmaker also knows something about this a long time ago when small wasn’t fashionable. And of course, transistorised radios first materialised in Japan back in the late fifties.

The advent of the digital SLR market was blemished right from the beginning and the reason was simple – Olympus wasn’t there to stir things up. And so there were at least ten years when dinosaurs returned to rule. Things went weirdly bloated, big, heavy, cumbersome and unwieldy. For Olympus to make their return, they would have to spend many long hard summers turning things around and basically that was what happened, culminating in the new Olympus Pen, the E-P1.

Olympus E-P1 - What Does It Mean? PDF Print E-mail

Olympus has now officially introduced the E-P1. There are other sites giving you all the technical details to satisfy most people's desires. We could regurgitate the same specifications and feature lists as you've seen everywhere else, but Zone-10 is about more than specifications--we are about usability and the art of taking pictures, however in due course, we will have our review. The Olympus E-P1 is actually something revolutionary, something not seen in decades--certainly nothing introduced in my lifetime. Something that possibly few understand--even industry insiders. Something that could possibly take on a life of its own.

From Pen to Micro Four-Thirds – Scripted for History


Olympus revisits the Pen design rulebook


Khen Lim, Zone-10


With less than two weeks to go, we’re told that the horse has bolted already. Throughout the Internet, news are hot that Olympus’ first Micro Four-Thirds camera has already seen the light of day and some have reported that it even has a name now. Some forms of specifications are documented and everyone’s getting excited. I’m sure Olympus management personnel are getting hot around the collar as well...
