Olympus E-P1 is filming in 720p Micro FourThirds sensor

The most striking feature of the new Micro FourThirds camera E-P1 (PEN) by Olympus, the 50's retro look. Nevertheless, the camera, thanks to an innovative user interface with two dials allow an effective operation. For an interchangeable lens camera, the E-P1 is very compact and easy-advised (120.5 × 70 × 35 mm, 335 g), where the LiveMos sensor with up to 12.3 Mpix photographed. Compared with the similar Panasonic GH1 falls mainly on the lack of viewfinder. With 720p30 camera saves the scene from a maximum of 5 minutes in an AVI container (vorraussichtlich MJPEG), with even some Live Filters as "Pop Art" (enhanced color), "pinhole camera", "Blur", "Tint" and "grainy film" can be directly recorded. The autofocus and image stabilizer will also be during the video recording function. The first e-kit is P1, from July 2009 to 799 EUR shipped.
