Olympus E-3. The ultra-fast auto focus speed of the E-3 is partly due to the sophisticated Supersonic Wave Drive motors in our new ZUIKO DIGITAL lenses.
Combined with an uI.tra-compact encoder for detecting rotational movement with 5 pm precision, these l.enses work smoothly, quietLy and instantaneously.
Detailed features of Olympus E-3
The Olympus E-3 delivers sharp shots in Low Light or with a telephoto lens even without a tripod. A sophisticated image sta bilization system compensates for camera shake by shifting the image sensor an equivalent of 5 shutter speed steps — all possible thanks to a gyro sensor that detects even the slightest hand tremble.
An in- body image stabilization system gives you the freedom to use any Four Thirds Lens. They are significantly smaller and lighter than other Lenses because they dont need an image stabiLization component in the optics.
