Olympus e-330

I picked up a new Camera body last weekend, the Olympus e-330. It is the third camera Olympus has released in their consumer line, but shares the same mount as my E-1 camera and 4/3 lenses.

The Camera's big new thing is that it sports live preview, which allows one to compose using the big 2.5" LCD instead of the optical viewfinder. In addition, the LCD swivels out and either up or down, allowing one to frame photos overhead or down close to the ground. People have always been able to do this with a point and shoot, and even some more advanced fixed lens cameras, but never a digital SLR.

Here is shot of Della taken a few hours ago:

And one taken at dinner Friday night at Rockfish's:

Gotta love a goblet O' beer!

And finally, a walking waist level shot of an unsupecting family at a big box store:

Fun stuff!
