Speed is an essential issue in photography. Not only is the optimal setting of aperture and shutter time important, also the focus needs to be in place when you release the shutter, and with today’s high resolution sensors large amounts of data must be processed and saved to the storage media quickly. And when the action picks up speed, so shall your camera: don’t miss a shot with high-speed shooting.

World’s fastest autofocus system |
|
The E-3 is equipped with 11 fully biaxial autofocus points. Paired biaxial sensors that detect contrast on both the horizontal and the vertical axis are arranged in a hound’s tooth pattern to ensure maximum precision and superb AF performance even in low-light conditions. Eleven paired biaxial sensors effectively provide the AF engine with a total of 44 different data points from which to calculate the correct focus. With the new Supersonic Wave Drive integrated in three lenses, AF speed made a quantum leap. The new professional lens ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 50-200mm 1:2.8-3.5 SWD for example is 2.5 times faster in autofocusing than the model without SWD. Together with its kit lens, the ZUIKO DIGITAL ED 12-60mm 1:2.8-4.0 SWD lens, the E-3 not only offers an ultra-precise AF, but also the world’s fastest autocus system to date. Of course the SWD autofocus increases speed for all camera models. Your E-System is ready when you are!

In continuous shooting, you don’t want to miss a moment. With speeds of at least 3 frames per second, all current E-System cameras are equipped to do the job. In a professional camera, the expectations are even higher. That’s why the E-3 provides you with 5fps, capturing 16 RAW images in a row. The buffer for JPEG images is even higher and only limited by your card capacity. As you don’t like to wait on your camera processing before you can carry on shooting, Olympus further improved image processing with the new processing engine TruePic III, incorporated in the E-3, E-410, E-420 and E-510. It can cope with high data volumes, just as you can with pressing the release button.
