Product Details

The lightweight, 10-megapixel Olympus Evolt E420 DSLR offers heavyweight technologies, including a bigger, more viewable 2.7-inch LCD and consumer-friendly fast On-Screen Autofocus, Face Detection, Shadow Adjustment Technology and Perfect Shot Preview to get the most out of the Live View experience. Additionally, when it comes to Live View, not all LCDs are created equal. At 2.7 inches, the portable E-420 LCD is large enough for users to compose and review images without squinting. The small camera’s LCD is not just larger, it is part of a camera with technologies intelligent enough to take advantage of the Live View photography experience. These innovative technologies include:

  • On-Screen Autofocus works as seamlessly as a point-and-shoot to display subjects in focus on the LCD the instant the shutter is pressed half way.
  • Face Detection Technology targets and locks on up to eight faces to ensure they are in focus and crystal clear for amazing portraits.
  • New and Improved HyperCrystal II Technology delivers twice the contrast and better viewing in extreme lighting conditions, a broader range of color detail, and a wider angle of view on the LCD so you and your friends can see it up to 176 degrees off-center.
  • Shadow Adjustment Technology captures detail in the bright areas of a frame and opens up detail in the shadows that other cameras would render too dark or underexposed.
  • Perfect Shot Preview enables you to view and select your favorite effect right on the LCD, and see how the image will look before you even capture it, so you know that what you see is what you get.

Features:

10-megapixel CMOS sensor captures enough detail for photo-quality 18 x 24-inch prints
2.7-inch Live View HyperCrystal II LCD screen
TruePic III for superior image quality in all lighting situations; exclusive dust-free technology for spot-free photos
Lightweight ergonomic design; kit includes 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 Zuiko lens
Stores images on CF, Micro Drive, or xD Picture Cards (not included)

"I recently brought this camera and was amazed by all the features. It's so small and easy to use. I'm no pro or anything but I wanted to take on a more creative role in my photography so I shopped around looking for a digital SLR that was on my level. The manual comes jam pack with information on how to operate the camera. So if you haven't had a digital SLR in the past don't be alarmed it's a great camera to upgrade to after using a point and shoot."
