Nikon & Olympus announce new cameras
It’s the season of cameras with major brands announcing their new offspring. Coming soon will be Olympus Pen E-PL1 which will release in March at the price $599. The E-PL1 is a much-awaited camera considering that the Pen models last year was a huge success. This Olympus camera is also different with the brand claiming that it works just like a DSLR and has the advantage of being way smaller than a DSLR camera. This one comes with a built-in flash and a bigger lens selection. With that also come the two new zooms from Olympus which are 9-18mm and wide to telephoto 14-150mm. These will be available in May at the price of $699.99 and $599.99 each.
On the other hand, Nikon is also busy preparing themselves for their Coolpix line of cameras launch. For starters, the Nikon P100 which will be sold at the price of $399 comes with a CMOS sensor, 10 megapixels sensor and a 26X zoom. The CMOS sensor helps in producing better quality images and there will be no shutter lag. The huge zoom will be good to capture images from far and the 10-megapixel sensor allows the camera to shoot at 10 frames per second.
