High Resolution All-In-One SLR at 4.0
Mega Pixels
The Olympus CAMEDIA E-10 Zoom SLR provides a maximum
resolution of 2240 x 1680 pixels with its 2/3” Interlaced CCD
and creates 11.7 Mb uncompressed TIFF images. For the pro-
sumer, entry-level pro and professionals photographers, this is a
quantum leap for a digital camera to provide this level of resolu-
tion. Now photographers can work as large as they want, or as
small as they want. The benefit of providing this high of resolu-
tion is manifest for those who need to output to photo-reproduc-
tion quality at 11” x 14”, or a double page spread in a magazine.
The E-10 also has a 32 Mb SD-RAM buffer, which allows a 3fps burst mode for four photos, for sequential shooting.
Joel Meyerowitz a professional location photographer based in New York comments on the resolution and image quality of the
CAMEDIA E-10 SLR: “From what I‘ve seen of the E-10, it’s brilliant and its images are sharp. Its images are also very balanced.
It makes overall exposures, in some ways, better than film exposures. There is plenty information or details in the shadow areas
and there’s tone in the highlights. Not all film performs this well. I made prints of these images up to 11” x 14” (the format of the
camera file), on 13” x 19” photo-grade paper. The output has real photographic quality and looks like film. I can’t see any
difference between film and digital at this level.”
Traditional Film Camera SLR Ergonomics
Olympus designed the CAMEDIA E-10 SLR with the goal of rep-
licating the look and feel of a professional film camera SLR. It
has a distinctive all black body that pros enjoy because it’s less
intrusive. All buttons and dials are an easy motion away from the
base holding position and are easily obtainable on-the-fly. The
CAMEDIA E-10 Zoom SLR even provides a realistic sounding
shutter click from its speaker so you know exactly when the im-
age is captured.
Another New York based professional photographer, Douglas Dubler explains, “the E-10 reminds me somewhat of the
Olympus IS-3 film camera that goes back about 10 years ago. It was a transitional camera, and the E-10 has that same great
of feel to it. The E-10 has great ergonomics, the buttons are situated in the right place for quick access. The E-10 is very tight
and precise and feels really good in your hand.”
Photographer Joel Meyerowitz adds, “the E-10 is absolutely in harmony with my hand. What’s nice is that this camera has hest.
Hest is when you pick something up, you feel the weight of it in your hand and it feels very solid. The E-10 has a good solid
