Dual Autofocus System
The CAMEDIA E-10 SLR has newly developed dual autofocus systems that work in tandem with each other. For moving quickly
from near subjects to far or vice versa, Olympus provides a patented IR (infrared) active focus system and for fine-tuning of the
subject, the TTL (through the lens) passive focus system is provided. This gives the user state-of-the-art focusing capabilities in
almost any condition.
Walter Urie explains, “I found the auto focus on that camera to be more than accurate, and worked great. With some cameras
the autofocus works hard to get affirmation, moving back and forth. With the E-10, I didn’t feel the lens going back and forth and
I didn’t have to wait for the focus to occur. It was quick.” New Exposure Controls and Dials
The CAMEDIA E-10 SLR offers professional 35mm SLR-like one-touch buttons and dials, which can be used as an alternative
means to change program modes rather than navigate through layers of LCD menu commands. The E-10’s dedicated buttons
control shooting modes such as flash, white balance and media card settings. Aperture and shutter controls are also set by using
these ergonomic dials, enabling on-the-fly adjustments for a wide range of commonly used features and settings.
