yes, its finally here!! the olympus e-510 dslr camera had arrived in singapore!! sweeet!!

i’ve been waiting for the successor to my e-500 ever since it was announced at pma 2007 back in march. olympus singapore has been doing an advertisement blitz on the new camera in the straits times for the past 3 days, which makes me drool even more….

so what’s good about the new e-510 as compared to the e-500??

for one, they upped the megapixels from 8.0 to 10.0, so you can print out really big pictures of yourself or someone reading the newspaper

there’s also a built-in image stabilizer for times when you need to take pictures with long exposure time without the tripod which helps to keep the image from being blurry.

but what sold me to the camera was the live preview function which you can’t find in other dslr camera. what it does is you can take pictures without looking into the viewfinder, you just need to look at the live preview LCD screen at the back of the camera,  something like your ordinary digital camera. it really helps when you might need to lie down to get a shot.

there are many other new cool features and updated improvements found in the camera. for more info, you can check out www.dpreview.com. 

but it seems for the time being, i just have to admire it from afar, as i just got the e500. end of the year, perhaps?
