Olympus PEN E-P2 Micro 4/3 Digital Camera Body (Black) – (Outfit Box)

The next evolution of Olympus PEN brings
new levels of power and performance.

The stylish retro black metal body of the PEN E-P2 may be reminiscent of a traditional rangefinder, but there's nothing traditional about this powerful camera from Olympus. The E-P2 is a 12.3-megapixel interchangeable lens camera, and it blends the high-quality still images of a DSLR with High Definition (HD) video, stereo Linear PCM audio recording and in-camera creativity – all inside an ultra-portable, easy-to-use body. The E-P2 also brings a twist to the PEN lineup: an accessory port which accommodates the optional VF-2 electronic view finder or optional external microphone adapter (SEMA-1).

This camera body was originally packaged as a camera, lens & flash outfit. You will receive the complete Olympus manufacturer's outfit box with only the lens and flash removed. It includes ALL original camera accessories (Olympus America Warranty Card, battery, cables, instruction manual, etc.).

This camera body is 100% BRAND NEW and has NEVER been used.

Key Features:

12.3 Megapixel
The E-P2's powerful 12.3 megapixel Live-MOS sensor packs a powerful high-quality imaging punch for such a compact camera, allowing you to capture more detail than ever before.

Accessory Port
The E-P2 incorporates a port for connecting accessories including an optional SEMA-1 Microphone adapter and the VF-2 live-finder, a detachable electronic viewfinder that works seamlessly with the E-P2. The live-finder easily slides onto the camera's accessory port and hot shoe when needed to provide 1.15x magnification, a 100% field of view with amazing resolution.

Micro Four Thirds Mount
The Micro Four Thirds Mount on the E-P2 provides many key benefits, including the effectiveness of a digitally designed image sensor, an ultra-compact design, and expandability and compatibility with all Micro Four Thirds Lenses and Four Thirds System Lens via the MMF-1 Adapter.

Four Thirds System Lens Adapter
Other Four Thirds Format lenses can also be used on the E-P2 with an available MMF-1 Four Thirds System Lens Adapter, including extreme wide-angle fisheye and super-telephoto lenses. This further increases your range of creative options.

Art Filters
A series of eight built-in Art Filters for replicating countless striking and dramatic effects can be easily activated for both still and video imaging. The innovative Art Filters include Pop Art, Soft Focus, Pale & Light Color, Light Tone, Grainy Film and Pin Hole.

TruePic V Image Processor
In addition to more detail, the image sensor, combined with the next-generation TruePic V Image Processor, delivers excellent dynamic range, accurate color fidelity and reduced noise, all the way up to 6400 ISO.

In-Body Image Stabilization
The camera's In-body Image Stabilization system compensates for up to four shutter speed steps with any of the system's interchangeable lenses. Mechanical Image Stabilization automatically compensates for camera shake in low-light situations or when using a telephoto lens.

Multiple Exposure
Multiple Exposure makes heightened creativity an easily-obtained objective. Two frames can be combined, and portions of one can be combined with those of another in any of the shooting modes. Images can be combined in playback mode or directly on the LCD through the use of the TruePic V Image Processor.

Sound Recording
The sound recording function of the E-P2 helps you capture all the nuances of classical music, the signing of birds, or any other sounds you want to record. The system is capable of recording and playing back WAV files, and of adding the professional quality sound to digital slide shows.

Digital Leveler
The camera's Digital Leveler function is a highly functional and practical feature for such specialized requirements as architectural photography and other similar needs.

Movie Mode
Shoot movies at 30 frames per second in 720p with available manual control over aperture and shutter speed. This new level of control allows you to express your vision exactly how you want in your HD videos.

Electronic Image Stabilization
Electronic Image Stabilization compensates for camera shake while shooting in the movie mode.

Live View Autofocus
With the seamless precision and simplicity of a point-and-shoot, the E-P2's Live View Autofocus system displays the images to be shot in complete focus on the camera's bright LCD the moment the shutter button is pressed half way down.

Face Detection
A Face Detection function reduces the chance of blurry faces when shooting groups of people—up to eight subjects at once—even if they're moving while you're pressing the shutter button.

Perfect Shot Preview
With Perfect Shot Preview, you can preview and select various photographic effects before you take the shot.

ePORTRAIT
The ePortrait mode is also useful for smoothing out the facial features of your subjects, which is a tremendous plus for High Definition playback.

Aspect Ratios
The E-P2 lets you select one of four Aspect Ratios (4:3, 3.2, 16.9 and 6.6) that help frame your images to whatever proportions you'd like, for everything from conventional enlargements to viewing on widescreen monitors.

Shadow Adjustment Technology
Shadow Adjustment Technology corrects for extreme light variations with high-tech efficiency. It can also be used in post-editing.

MF Assist
For accurate manual focusing, MF Assist can be enabled during S-AF + MF operation. With it you can zoom in on the central part of the image by up to five times by turning the focus ring.

Live Control
Live Control, an advanced camera management system, allows you to see the image being shot and the camera's controls all at once, on the bright, colorful, high definition 3-inch HyperCrystal LCD. HyperCrystal LCDs offer many times the contrast of conventional LCD monitors, and also provide a wide viewing angle of 176º.

19 Automatic Scene Modes
The E-P2 is equipped with 19 scene-select modes for effortless picture taking. Standard scene modes like Night-Scene, Portrait and Landscape are easy-to-use solutions for everyday shooting. Edits can be made in the camera after the pictures are shot using the handy ePortrait Mode.

Dust Reduction System
A Dust Reduction System assures spot-free images. Every time you turn on the camera, the patented Supersonic Wave Filter silently vibrates, flinging and collecting dust so that it cannot interfere with the picture imaging at any time.
