Olympus E-510

mmatrix · 6th April 2007

Has this reached our shores? Any pricing?

drakon09 · 6th April 2007

Not yet, probably Jun or Jul.

I think it's around USD 699 RRP for body only.

Omg, so long.. Will Cannon or Nikon surprise us again before that date?

Probably not, their next major announcement (probably 5D replacement and D3X) is slated to go head to head with the Oly P-1. This would probably happen closer to PMA (Sep thereabouts).

Fantastic mike.

Do take plenty of pictures of the P-1 and new lenses/flash system and post them here!

If I see anything interesting (if it doesn't cost a fortune to enter the show). Actually, this has reminded me that there's a photographic/digital imaging show in Toronto in early May that I can go to...I get free passes every year, but I never go...and Olympus will be there, hopefully with the E-410 and E-510.

Actually Olympus upcoming releases are really exciting.

Especially with the upcoming lenses and inbuilt image stabilisation sensor. Olympus is like a sleeping dragon hiding underneath.

Now, the only concern is the quality of the image sensor.
