If you've been waiting for a 4/3 digital SLR (dSLR) since the standard was announced more than a year ago, you'll be pleased to know the wait is over. With the official unveiling of the 5-megapixel E-1 Digital SLR, Olympus has made a dramatic entrance into the professional-dSLR market. The company's new contender is the first 4/3 interchangeable-lens camera, and it's designed from the ground up to use entirely digital technology instead of borrowing parts (lenses, most notably) from existing 35mm-film-camera systems. Kodak and Fujifilm have also endorsed the 4/3 system, which uses a standard lens mount and sensor size (22.3mm diagonal, with a 4:3 aspect ratio). That probably means that if you decide to take the 4/3 plunge, you'll be rewarded with a rapidly growing selection of compatible components over the next few years. For the moment, Olympus has gotten the ball rolling with the E-1 body, the first four of its new Zuiko Digital lenses, and a variety of accessories.

While Olympus touts the E-1 as a revolutionary camera, its design is generally conventional. The new model and Olympus's E-20N have very similar control layouts, as well as the same deep grip and right-mounted lens (compare the center-mounted designs of other interchangeable-lens SLRs). One of the advantages of the 4/3 standard is that it enables both camera bodies and lenses to be more compact and lightweight than existing dSLR bodies and the 35mm-film-camera lenses they use. Sure enough, the E-1 is smaller and lighter than its competitors, but that doesn't mean it's flimsy in any respect--the splashproof, magnesium-alloy body is built to withstand the rigors of pro shooting, and it's equipped with all the requisite seals and gaskets.

The E-1's feature set likewise targets advanced photographers, providing shutter-speed selections from Bulb to 1/4,000; 3-frame-per-second shooting of up to 12 frames in JPEG, TIFF, or RAW mode; selectable color spaces and light-sensitivity settings from ISO 100 to ISO 3,200; a 2 percent spot meter; and direct-to-computer capture for studio use. Olympus doesn't neglect the finer points, either: the viewfinder offers a bright, interchangeable focusing screen and 100 percent frame coverage; you can choose between FireWire and USB 2.0 for downloads; and ultrasonic waves automatically dust the sensor each time you power on the camera.

Olympus claims the E-1 will be available by October at a list price of $2,199 (body only). That's a substantially smaller price tag than pro-digital favorites such as the Canon EOS 1D and the Nikon D1X carry. But are the price disparity and the E-1's merits great enough to convince professional photographers to shelve their existing lens and accessory collections and invest in a whole new system?  Stay tuned.

The Olympus E-1 is the world's first 100% all-digital interchangeable lens SLR system. This camera has been designed entirely from digital technology and for digital photography. Olympus and Kodak have partnered to create the new Four Thirds open standard which matches a high performance image sensor with digitally-optimized "smart" lenses. The lenses are designed so the light strikes the sensor directly, ensuring rich, accurate colors, sharp contrasts and bright images even at the edges.

The first camera being introduced in the Olympus Digital SLR System is the professional E-1. The most technically sophisticated, computerized digital camera built to date, the E-1 is designed to deliver the best digital images for professional photographers today and into the future. It is a dynamic camera that can handle many types of photographic situations and deliver superior results in a wide range of settings, from indoor to studio, fashion to journalism, sports to portrait photography, and more.

The camera features a new, high performance Super Latitude Full Frame Transfer CCD from Kodak, the KAF-5101CE, which delivers the highest dynamic range, lowest noise levels and best color of any camera in its class. This innovative 5 Megapixel CCD outperforms many higher Megapixel count imagers. A newly developed Supersonic Wave Filter™ significantly reduces the chances of dust settling on the CCD or image and blocking pixels.

The E-1 is the first Olympus camera to feature Versatile Color Adjustment modes, including five Saturation Adjustment modes and four Color Memory modes. Saturation Adjustment allows professional photographers to select one of five levels of color saturation from 0 (accurate) to 4 (super saturated). Color Memory allows the photographer to select a specific color emphasis, with options including red apple, spring green, sky blue, and soft red/pink for flesh tones. In addition, the E-1 utilizes new and existing technologies like the exclusive Olympus TruePic™ Technology to achieve the highest image quality and most realistic digital photographs. Newly developed Noise Compensation technology and the existing Noise Reduction technology produce clear, clean files.

The E-1 is built to last with a magnesium alloy metal body that is lightweight and durable for heavy daily use by the most demanding professional photographers. Splash-proof body and lenses provide maximum protection against dust and moisture, allowing photographers to shoot in the most difficult conditions without concern for the performance or life of the product.

The system delivers a true film-like experience with fast shooting and operating speeds, dramatically reducing the lag time often associated with digital cameras. The E-1's high speed performance shortens the time it takes to capture an image and transfer data to the memory card. Second generation coreless motors in the Digital Specific Lenses achieve focus speeds comparable to or better than the best film SLR lenses.

The E-1's new progressive Full Frame Transfer CCD™ with separate camera control SDRAM and large SDRAM buffer, coupled with the E-1's parallel data processing 3 ASIC Digital Processor engine, overcomes many of the bottlenecks in image processing and camera operations. The E-1 can capture images at 3 frames per second for a burst of 12 frames in all image quality modes. New capture software delivers another boost in shooting speed, allowing direct capture of data to a computer.
