Olympus E5 - Evolutionary Upgrade to Olympus E-3

An evolutionary upgrade over its predecessor E-3, the E-5 features technological advances made since the E-3 was introduced in 2007.

The E5 features a new 12.3 MP (10.1 MP in E3), Four Third (7.3 mm (H) x 13.0 mm (V) ) sensor, and a new image processing engine - TruePic. It supports 5 fps still photography and ISO sensitivities up to 6,400 (3,200 in E3).

It can record 720p (1280 x 720 pixels) HD video at 30 fps with continuous auto-focus, the last being a feature that is still relatively rare in DSLRs.

It retains its predecessor's imager shift image stabilization, allowing a max of 5 EV steps compensation.

It features a fully articulated 3-inch (2.5-inch in E3) LCD with 960K pixels. Its user interface has been improved and brought in line with PEN cameras.

It retains the magnesium alloy case of the E3. The housing is resistant to water splashes, dust and multiple pressure constraints.

Other important features include: 11 point autofocus, Artistic filters, HDR Rendering, HDMI and Stereo Mic connections.

A recent statement by Olympus UK product manager Mar Thackare puts the E5 in perspective.

"We will continue to do these [Four Thirds cameras] until micro cameras can do what other products can," and "All cameras will be mirror-less in the future."

The E-5 will become available in October 2010.

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers Katy Perry continues working with the producers of GHD hair dryers and GHD hair care products: the singer once again demonstrated her luxurious hair in a fresh advertising campaign – this time she had the image of a diva from “the golden Hollywood” era (the pop-diva had already had the image of a hippie, a disco girl, and a mermaid). Luxurious dresses, bright makeup and a small portion of theatricality – one can immediately see that she is a star! The shooting was run by Ellen von Unwerth, who preferred to focus on restrained sensuality and the interplay of tones rather than on bright colors (the latter are always excessive with Katy) and presented black-and-white portraits of Perry to the public. The girl really looks perfect in the pictures : whether she is playing chess, recovering after a tiring concert or just getting ready to appear on stage. But whose merit is this: that of the photographer, the heroine, or maybe Photoshop?
