It just happens that Olympus has also decided that summer would be a good time to roll out a whole new line of PEN cameras & their just introduced E-P3 is available for purchase now! Fans of the award-winning Olympus PEN® family of cameras now have the new Flagship Olympus PEN E-P3: the ultimate PEN for visual expression. Designed for photographers who want total control over their creative vision with a camera portable enough to travel the world, the powerful Olympus PEN E-P3 delivers professional image quality, the world’s fastest auto focus, built-in creative features, and a new OLED touch screen in a classic, all-metal body with fully advanced controls. Their new 12.3MP live mos sensor is optimized to maximize the performance of all mZuiko digital lenses in any shooting condition. Improvements to the sensitivity and read-out speed of the existing sensor makes ISO 12,800 shooting and Full HD movie recording possible. And with the world's fastest AF system, the E-P3 is able to focus at an incredible speed and offers 35 separate focus points that are spread over nearly the entire sensor, which makes it possible for pin-point accurate focusing on small subjects wherever they appear in the frame. Selectable 3x3 groups within the 35-point area are especially effective when shooting active subjects.  Small,compact & full of all the features you may want, the E-P3 is definitely a camera to consider if you want a perfect travel camera. Check out USA Today's review of the camera from earlier this week: http://tinyurl.com/3mvg6bw .
