Olympus E600 DSLR Camera
The new Olympus E-600 digital SLR was announced as a lower-cost version of the existing E-620 model.
Estimated street pricing for the E-600 is $600 for a kit including Olympus‘ ED 14-42mm f3.5/5.6 zoom lens, and it’s 100$ cheaper than the E-620’s street price $700 with the same lens.
Price is reduced due to the removal of three “art filter” modes which were offered in the E-620 - Pale & Light Color, Light Tone, and Grainy Film. Two-shot multi exposure mode, and the aspect mask control are also absent. If you don’t need these features, it’s sensible for you to buy a cheaper camera.
Like the E-620, the Olympus E-600 12-magapixel resolution, Live MOS image sensor, and accepts Four Thirds-mount lenses. And the Supersonic Wave Filter dust reduction system, which helps control the effects of dust on the image sensor.
Exposure modes include Program Auto (with program shift capability), as well as both Aperture- and Shutter-priority and a fully Manual mode. There are also 18 scene modes to keep things approachable for beginners, and a Scene Program AE mode that automatically selects from a subset of five scene modes.
Three Art Filter modes are still available - “Pop Art”, “Soft Focus” and “Pin Hole.”
The E-600 ships from November 2009.
